At Sahara Studio, I specialise in providing industry specific graphic and website designs for local tradies on the Sunshine Coast. I make sure your business stands out, drives engagement, and converts leads into loyal customers. With a deep understanding of the local market, I deliver designs that will attract your target audience and result in a boost your business, and help you grow.
A generic template may appear to be easier and faster but they are designed to limit customisation. This mean’s that your getting a website that has the exact same format as everyone else.
Templates are designed to pump out websites quickly, with your business fitting into their concept. Great if you’re designing your own, not good enough if you’re using a web designer.
They lack the imagination and honestly, I would be bored using the same idea day after day. I’m a creative at heart and I don’t cut corners or deliver sausage factory designs.
They can lack visual editing capabilities meaning you need to switch between the back and front end to see your changes, which can be time-consuming for the designer, meaning more cost to you.
Templates can be designed without the extensive range of advanced design features and widgets. I’m yawning now.
Generic or common templates have flaws within their design such as centred body text (we don’t centre body text), they don’t meet the accessibility standards for web design and they can contain bloat wear (doesn’t sound good does it
Templates rely heavily on pre-designed concepts which limit creativity making it challenging to create unique layouts that stand out. Templates are widely used and there’s a higher chance that your website might look similar to others which affects your brand uniqueness.
We took the Peak Group Websites and removed the generic templates and created unique designs that set them apart.
