Sign Shop Websites

What's different about a sign shop website?

Depending on the focus of your company, a sign shop website can be one of two kinds. Type 1: brochure website. This style is best for companies that do a lot of electrical and permanent signage. Customers don't expect to order their sign online right away because each quote is unique. This type of design is a showcase of your best sign work.

Type two: e-commerce. This type of design is better for companies that sell more standardized products, such as magnetic signs or Coroplast. Customers expect a little bit of customization - they will add their own message to their signs - but it's easy to provide a way for them to order your signs online. Instead of making them come to your shop or even call for a quote, why not provide them with everything they need to order right now, and secure the sale?

Your sign shop website needs to emphasize why you are different from the competition. If a customer can go to the flea market and buy a yard sign, why should he buy from you instead? You need to explain that your signs are designed by professionals, not amateurs, and you can provide services like custom logos that the flea market guy who is using a clipart catalog just can't compete with. It's all about showing off your specialty.

Why trust Alamo Websites to design your sign shop website?

Not many web designers have actual expertise in the field they're designing for. That means you may spend extra time explaining what you do and how you do it, when you could be concentrating on nailing down that final design.

Our designers have worked in the sign industry. They know what the difference between neon and LED is; they know how you survey channel letter jobs and how vinyl lettering is installed. They know what your customers want to see. We are experts at sign shop website design because we know your customers and your products inside and out.

Can I see some of your sign shop website designs?

Key examples of our sign shop website work are Fast Magnetic Signs and Quick Signs. They reflect both of the styles mentioned above.

Fast Magnetic Signs is an e-commerce website designed to let the customer pick out and customize signs, then pay for them instantly and have them shipped. Not only does it provide an opportunity to get nationwide customers without hiring a single salesman, it's quick and easier than ever to fulfill orders. Customers choose from a variety of preset layouts and fill in their own text - it's almost as if the signs make themselves!

Quick Signs, on the other hand, specializes in lighted signs. Rather than selling directly online, they need a brochure-type website to showcase their work. Their customers want to see examples of their work to get ideas for their own signs, and to ensure that the company really can do what they want. The website offers an extra boost of credibility to the company, and gives customers an extra way to find them - and one more reason to choose them over the competition.
