Custom websites for small businesses
Purpose-built websites
A well-made website for a small business does three things.
Beautiful. It shows off that you’re a professional, trustworthy company.
Functional. It gives your customers easy ways to get the things they want done.
Simple. It makes managing your business easier than it was without the website.
Beautiful, Functional, Simple. When One Shaka Media builds your website, you’re guaranteed to get all three. Keep reading below to find out how, or call us today to start planning your website.
1. Beautiful layouts
Your website is often your first impression for potential clients. Before they read the first word they’ve formed an opinion on whether or not you’re up to the task. The colors, layout, fonts all tell the story of your company in the same way that your clothes, hygiene and mannerisms tell people about you before you’ve ever shaken their hand.
When you work with One Shaka Media to build your website, you’ll start with a meeting to really nail down your personality and translate it into an appealing set of layout elements that help show your business off in a way that’s honest to your brand, including the little preview image that pops up when you text someone a link to your site.
Have a website that needs a glow-up?
2. Functional Design
Once you look professional enough, you need your site to be usable to your clients. This is a whole second level of design that sits on top of the visual / artistic level. If you’ve heard the phrase “Primary Action”, “Above the fold”, or “Client Funnel” this is exactly what we’re talking about.
This step involves breaking down the main things you want your clients to be able accomplish on your site. Separating these out into custom pages, and planning out the content so that users who are ready to go can start immediately and those who want to poke deeper have enough content to convince them.
Notice that “Call for a free consultation” button? It was one of the first things you saw.We did that on purpose. Why not click it?

3. Simple Upkeep
Finally, a website should be easy for you to understand and maintain both when you build it and in the years to come. Whether that’s with us, on your own, or with a tech-savvy nephew. That means that we’re glad to teach what we do and why we do it as we work alongside you building your app. We’re also glad to take the whole thing off your plate if you just want it done. The choice really is yours.
And when it comes time to add more features, email campaigns, scheduling tools, CMS systems, we work with you to make sure that you’re not signing up for something that will be too expensive or complex to maintain long-term. We know how easily tech can spiral out of control. At One Shaka Media, we go out of our way to make sure that the website doesn’t become just one more headache to worry about.
