A bakery in Ixelles, before and after RobinDuWeb
Picture a neighbourhood bakery near Place Flagey that had its website made about ten years ago. It's still there and covers the basics, but nobody dares touch it any more.
Example
Here's an example of what you receive when you ask for your designs. In your case, the text and photos would be your own.
The starting point
The opening hours are part of an image, so they're unreadable on a phone and the manager has to redo the image every time the shop closes for a holiday. The bread photos are heavy and slow to load. And changing a single line of text means calling the nephew who built the site in the first place.
The three designs we sent
Starting from that site, we prepared three designs. The text and photos stay the same; only the layout, the colours and the typefaces change.
-
Design 1, the shop window
A large photo of the counter as soon as the page opens, followed by today's opening hours in plain text that's easy to update. It suits a shop people walk into on their way past.
-
Design 2, the chalkboard
Breads and pastries are listed as if on a chalkboard, sorted by the day they come out of the oven. Ideal for customers who want to know what they'll find on a Saturday morning.
-
Design 3, the family business
The bakery's story takes centre stage, with portraits of the bakers and how they work. It suits a business that wants to put its craft first.
What the manager could have done with her private link
Using the link and code she received, she opens all three designs on her phone between two batches. She pins a comment on the main photo ("the croissants one instead"), clicks on the name of a loaf to correct it, and picks design 1. Only then does she pay.
And then?
The site goes live on the bakery's own domain name, and the old addresses point to the new pages. From now on, the manager updates the holiday closing times herself in the editor, in a few minutes.
What would your own website look like?
Send us the address of your current site, or just tell us you don't have one yet. Within a few days you'll get three real designs, built with your own text and photos.
