Website or Online Shop? How to Find the Right Package

"Do I even need an online shop?" We hear this question in almost every first conversation. The honest answer: usually not, at least not at the start. Most trades and hospitality businesses are far better served by a well-made website than by a full shop system. Here's how to tell which one fits you.

When a Website Is Enough

If your customers mostly find you, call you, and then hire you personally, an electrician or hairdresser, for example, you primarily need a digital business card: a fast, mobile-optimised page that shows what you do, where you are, and how to reach you.

This is exactly what our Web Package is for: a fully-featured website with a professional email address, SSL certificate and hosting, ready to go at a fair price we work out with you individually.

When an Online Shop Pays Off

A shop system is worth it once customers should order and pay directly online, for products, vouchers, or pickup orders, for example. Then you need more than a business card: product management, a cart, and secure payment processing.

Our Online Shop Package brings exactly that: shop system, product management, professional email and payment processing, hosting included, at a transparent flat rate we set together with you.

The Middle Path: Start with a Website, Expand Later

Many of our clients deliberately start small. A website goes live faster, costs less to run, and can be expanded into a shop later, once the need is really there. So you don't have to commit right away: in a short initial consultation, we'll show you how your package changes as you move from a website system to an online shop.
