HOW IT WORKS
DIP
Let’s start with a coffee, be it at your premises, a cafe or via Zoom. We will chat at length to ascertain exactly what you need your website to do for you. We then ensure we have everything we need for the build! This includes copywriting, photography, brand assets, domain names etc. Don’t forget, we can help you with anything you cannot supply!
PADDLE
We tend to share a first stage review with you once the overall website design is established and one or two key pages are built. This is to ensure that we remain in sync with you, and it allows you to see just where your website is heading.
SPLASH
Once first stage is signed off, we will roll on with the rest of the website, working on design and functionality side by side. Style, substance and suitability are ensured every step of the way.
Once we are happy that the website is complete we will share it with you for second review.
DIVE
After completing any snags or annotations, to the website we will go through it with a fine tooth comb and ensure all connections are set, any functions are tested and then your website will be live! At this stage you will receive a full Handover Document containing all technical website information. This is also the point where legal ownership is transferred from us to you.

FAQS
I really like the look of an existing site, can you incorporate the feel of this site into my website build even though its nothing to do with my business model?
Absolutely! One of the things we will ask you before we commence work on your project is if there are any existing websites that you really love the “look and feel” of, this gives us a great design starting point to build upon when designing your dream website.
How long will it take to build my Showcase website?
There are many factors that come into play when estimating a time frame for any website build. Showcase sites are the quickest to type of website to get live and we estimate that providing all content is supplied to us correctly and on time, most showcase sites are completed within 8-10 weeks of deposit payment received.
What is the difference between Showcase and E-Shop?
A showcase website is just like a beautifully curated and custom designed shop window… think of it as your shop’s storefront to showcase your work, products, services and or skills to your potential customers or clients. We help you to build your storefront, showcase what you have to offer and tell your story so that potential business can come your way easily and effectively via clear and concise contact information. An E-shop varies from a Showcase site in that it has additional functionality that enables the client or customer to make purchases of goods or services via a website shop within the website itself.
Is there a limit to how many products I can have in my shop?
Absolutely not - Rockpool includes the creation and set up of 50 products in the standard E-shop package, however you can add bolt on bundles of products for minimal costs (just ask and we will be happy to price this up for you).
What is a payment gateway? Which ones should I have?
Payment gateways are set up to allow customers or clients to pay for goods or services via your E-shop or E-commerce website. Usually we recommend starting with PayPal and/or Stripe.
Can my E-Shop or E-Commerce site keep inventory?
Yes! If you want your shop to keep seamless inventory for you then its best to collate all this information before we begin building your shop - we will require SKU numbers for stock items (this is especially important if there are variable products i.e same product in different sizes or colours) and current stock numbers for each stock SKU.
What’s the difference between an E-shop and an E-commerce website?
Whilst an E-Shop allows customers or clients to purchase goods or services via an online shop facility an E-Commerce website opens up this level of functionality to include the possibility of memberships, gift cards, members areas, complex shipping and payment systems.
Does my website come with the SEO I need to get found on Google?
Yes of course! SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation and it is the work done on the back end of your website pages and shop products which help Google to list you appropriately in searches on Google. All websites, from showcase to E-commerce built by Rockpool come with our complete standard SEO package.
