Custom Website Design – Delivered Ready to Launch
What is a showcase website?
A showcase website is designed to present a company, its products, or its services. Unlike an e-commerce site, this type of website does not offer direct online sales. Its main purpose is to generate leads, which can later be converted into clients through other sales channels.
The usefulness of a showcase website
A showcase website meets several key objectives for a business. First, having a website ensures an online presence, allowing your company to exist on the internet. This means that users and potential clients can find you among competitors. In fact, today, prospects tend to trust companies that have a website more.
It also allows you to communicate in detail about your products by adding descriptions and photos. Furthermore, including a contact form or newsletter sign-up helps you collect data — valuable for building customer loyalty and engaging new prospects.

WordPress: a simple and effective solution for creating a showcase website
WordPress is a CMS (Content Management System) that allows you to build websites easily, quickly, and affordably. It enables the creation of websites with varied designs thanks to available themes and advanced features. As a result, it is the most popular solution for building showcase websites.
Moreover, if you entrust me with the creation of your website, upon delivery, I will train you on how to use its back office. This way, you will be fully autonomous in updating your site whenever you want, without having to pay a provider to do it for you.
E-commerce website: what is it?
As briefly mentioned earlier, an e-commerce website allows you to sell online.
E-commerce sites can offer a wide variety of products and services, as seen in major well-known marketplaces. They usually include features such as order management, secure online payments, delivery, and customer service.
With these features, an e-commerce website is an essential tool for businesses of all sizes. It helps reach a broader audience, enter new markets, reduce costs, and enhance the customer experience by offering additional services.
What is the purpose of an e-commerce website?
For the brand, having a website is an essential tool. It helps stand out from the competition, provide additional services, reduce costs, and build a personalized trust-based relationship with customers. Most importantly, it enables increased sales, as the business is no longer limited to local customers but can target new markets.
For customers, shopping on the brand’s website saves time by allowing purchases at any hour, day or night. In addition, it offers secure payments, delivery to the chosen location, and the ability to easily compare prices.
