What it is
A website is a page or a set of pages on the internet that tell people about your business, take requests or sell goods. Unlike a social media account or a marketplace listing, a website is fully yours: the address, the design and the data belong to you, not the platform.
How we use it
We build websites end to end โ from a simple one-page landing with a single goal (a request, a sale, a booking) to an online store with its own admin panel. Unlike site builders (Tilda, Wix and the like), there is no monthly platform rent, no third-party limits, and any automation can be built in โ a chat bot, request intake or a warehouse integration.
Where a website helps a business
- You sell by phone and chat, and it is time to keep orders and stock in one place.
- A customer needs one link instead of a long chat: who you are, what you do, how to get in touch.
- Ads lead to a page, and it must open instantly on a phone.
- An old site on an outdated CMS falls apart on phones and cannot be edited without a developer.
Types
- A business card: one page for a specialist, such as Valery Afanasiev's site for a 3D printing engineer.
- A showcase: a catalogue with no online payment, where the order goes to a messenger, such as ยซะัั
ะฐะฝะธะต ะะพะฒะพะปะถััยป with ordering through VKontakte.
- An online store: stock, sizes, wholesale, orders and an owner's panel, such as the shirt store.
- A multi-page site: every service and case has its own page, in two languages, such as the studio website.
- A service around a page: accounts, plans, a bot as the admin, such as UNLOCK.
How we use it
We choose the stack for the task: Nuxt and FastAPI with a custom panel for stores and services, WordPress with our own theme and no third-party plugins when a familiar admin is needed. We move sites off old CMSs with 301 redirects, as in the Joomla to WordPress migration. A phone-first layout, markup for search and a panel where the owner edits prices and texts are built in from the start. Details and prices are under Websites and online stores.
Common problems
- The site cannot be edited without a developer. Every price change becomes a request to the contractor.
- A heavy page from an ad. A visitor on a phone does not wait for it to load and leaves.
- The site is closed to search after testing, and for years nobody finds it.
When you do not need it
If customers come only through referrals and talk to you in a messenger, a bot or a one-screen business-card page is sometimes enough. A multi-page site is needed when your services have search queries of their own.
