Launching soonShops and makers
Websites for Isle of Wight shops and makers.
Whether you sell online, over the counter or both, a site that shows what you make and makes it easy to buy. You see the design before you pay.
How you sell
An online shop, or a shop window?
Plenty of island shops do best with a site that shows what's in stock, when you're open and where to find you, plus click and collect for locals. Others sell across the country and need a full online shop with a checkout. We talk it through with you first and design for the way you sell.
Selling from the island
Posting from the Isle of Wight has its quirks. Some couriers charge more to collect from or deliver to the island, so we set your delivery prices to cover what it really costs you, and make collection an easy choice for local customers.
Card payments, paid straight to you
Customers pay by card through a trusted provider such as Stripe, and the money goes to your own account. Isle of Wight Stock, the photo library we built and run, takes card payments this way every day.
Downloads and made-to-order
Digital products, like Elderberrie Blue's printable cards, can be bought and downloaded the same day. Made-to-order and personalised pieces can ask for the details you need at checkout.
Products people can find
Each product gets its own page with clear photos and a proper description, written so it can turn up on Google when someone searches for what you make.

Questions
Straight answers.
Can I change prices and descriptions myself?
Yes. Ask for the change in plain words in your Client Hub, check the preview and press Go live. Price changes wait for Reuben's check first.
I sell on Etsy. Can I keep doing that?
Yes. You can keep selling on Etsy or another marketplace alongside your own site, and link between them.
Do I need an online shop at all?
Not always. If most of your customers come through the door, a shop window site with your opening hours, what's in stock and click and collect may be all you need. We'll tell you honestly which suits you.
Can you photograph my products?
Photography is a separate service. You can add a shoot as a package with your website, or we work with the photos you have.
