Retail Shop (Catalogue Only)
Show your products and hours online without a full checkout — good if you sell mainly in-store.
What's included, and why
- ✓Product catalogue (browse only)
Most shoppers research online before visiting in person — even without checkout, showing what you stock is what gets them through the door.
- ✓Store location & hours
"Are you open right now" is the most common reason someone checks a local shop's site — this answers it instantly.
- ✓"Ask about this product" enquiry form
Captures interest on a specific item even without full checkout — a low-friction way to get a real lead instead of losing them entirely.
Cheaper than the full online store because there's no cart, payments or inventory logic to build — this is a digital shopfront, not a checkout.
How should it look?
The same retail shop (catalogue only) website can be built in very different directions — and the difference isn't just looks, the machinery behind each one differs too. These are the directions that tend to win for businesses like yours:
- Big Photo First
One stunning full-screen photo, a few confident words, one button.
- Straight to the Point
The menu, the prices, the hours — before anything else.
- Dark & Expensive
Dark background, gold or ivory details, slow and confident.
- Loud Words, No Photos Needed
Huge type does the talking — great when photography isn't your strength.
- Half Story, Half Action
Photo on one side, booking or enquiry on the other — always visible.
- The Work Speaks
A wall of your work, tightly organised — portfolio as homepage.
