Catalog websites are a universal and in-demand solution for most companies, allowing them to solve key business tasks. Essentially, they are an organized collection of pages featuring products, services, or work examples.
Who is a Catalog Website Suitable For?
This website format is an excellent choice for:
— Manufacturers and suppliers;
— Wholesale and retail trading companies;
— Companies operating in the service sector (both for businesses and individuals).
A key advantage over an online store is the absence of an online payment function via a shopping cart. This relieves the business owner from the need to be listed in the Trade Register and simplifies project launch.
Developing a catalog requires less investment than creating a full-fledged online store. At the same time, it can always be upgraded in the future by adding online sales functionality. We have seen the effectiveness of this approach in practice: many of our clients started with a catalog and successfully grew their online business.
The basic functionality of a catalog website includes:
— A catalog of goods or services with an unlimited number of items;
— A system for requests and callbacks for each product;
— Standard pages: "About Us", "Contacts", "Delivery and Payment", blog or news;
— Modern elements: photo galleries, sliders, interactive maps;
— Convenient filters and product sorting;
— Tools for SEO promotion;
— Marketing modules: "Sale", "Bestseller" stickers, blocks with related products and viewing history.
