I recently wrote a non fiction book. A marketer from the publishing company, advised me to setup a small website with a few pages dedicated to this book. This website will have a description of the book and will link to online bookstores. I was wondering what the best way is to do this for somebody who doesn't make websites for a living.

- First, do I really need to have such a website?
- If not are there any better alternatives?
- Do I need to register a domain for this website?
- Do I need a premium hosting plan?

I was thinking of just winging it with a free hosting plan for instance on Wordpress.
