What I Build for Retail Stores

Everything you need to showcase products and drive store visits

Product Galleries

Stunning product photography displays that make your inventory shine. Show off new arrivals, bestsellers, and seasonal collections.

E-Commerce Ready

Add online shopping when you're ready. I integrate with Shopify, Square, or simple buy buttons. Start with a catalog and add checkout later.

Store Locator & Directions

Google Maps integration, clear directions, and prominent address display. Make it easy for customers to find your door.

Hours, Events & Promotions

Display store hours, holiday schedules, sales events, and special promotions. Drive traffic during slow periods.

Mobile-First Design

70% of shoppers browse on phones. Your site will look perfect on any device with tap-to-call and easy navigation.

New Arrivals & Collections

Showcase seasonal collections, new arrivals, and featured products. Keep customers coming back to see what's new.

What Store Owners Say

Local retailers trust Louisville Web Guy

I kept hearing "I found you on Google" from new customers. Turns out people were searching for boutiques in our area and we finally showed up. The website paid for itself in the first month.

Ashley B.

Clothing Boutique Owner

We were only selling at markets and on Facebook. Hunter built us a real website and now we get orders all week, not just on market days. Game changer for our business.

David M.

Specialty Food Shop

People kept calling to ask what hours we were open or if we had certain items. Now they check the website first. It cut down on phone calls and we still get the foot traffic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about retail websites

How much does a retail website cost?

Retail websites start at $950 for a complete single-page site. This includes product galleries, store info, contact form, and mobile optimization. Monthly hosting is $150/month and includes updates. Additional pages are $150 each. Local SEO package is $300.

Do I really need a website if I sell on social media?

Social media is great for engagement, but it won't show up when someone searches "boutique Louisville" or "gift shop near me" on Google. A website gets you found by people actively looking to buy. Plus, you own your website - social platforms can change their rules any time.

Can I sell products online?

Yes. I can integrate with Shopify, Square Online, WooCommerce, or simple PayPal buy buttons. Start with a basic catalog site and add online ordering when you're ready.

How do I update products?

You don't have to do it yourself. Updates are included with your monthly hosting. Just send me photos and descriptions and I'll handle the rest. Most retail owners prefer this approach.

Will my website help people find my store?

Yes. Every site includes basic SEO setup. For better local visibility, add the Local SEO package ($300) which includes Google Business Profile optimization and 2 location-based landing pages.

Can I show seasonal collections and new arrivals?

Yes. I can create dedicated sections for new arrivals, seasonal collections, sale items, and featured products. These can be updated as often as you like through your monthly update time.

Do you work with pop-up shops or market vendors?

Yes. Even if you don't have a permanent location, I can build you a website that showcases your products, lists your upcoming market appearances, and lets customers contact you or shop online.

How long does it take?

Most retail websites are live within 1-2 weeks. I handle everything. You just provide your product photos, store info, and any content you want included. I do the rest.
