Website design for galleries and shops

Gallery and shop websites as good as the work on the walls.

Your collection, your story, hours and events, built around someone deciding whether to visit, or buy online.

What a gallery or shop site is for

People find independent galleries and shops online before they ever walk in. They want to see what you carry, feel your style and know when you’re open. Every page is built to bring them through the door.

  • Your work, beautifully shown
  • Hours you can find
  • Events, always current
  • No popups in the way

Local search

Be the one people find first.

When someone nearby searches for what you do on their phone, you want to be in that short list. We build the pieces search engines look for:

  • A local page for each town or area you serve
  • Business structured data: hours, services, contact and directions
  • A tidy Google Business Profile and consistent listings, guided by us
  • Fast, mobile-friendly pages, built for someone deciding on the fly
How local visibility works

The job

Six jobs your website has to do.

01

Show the collection

Artists, pieces and products shown with big, real photos, because the work is what people come for.

02

Tell your story

Who you are, what you carry and why, told simply, so people feel your style before they visit.

03

Keep hours and events current

Opening nights, artist talks and holiday hours, quick to post yourself.

04

Sell online, if you want to

A simple shop or inquiry flow for pieces and products, so a visit isn’t the only way to buy.

05

Get found nearby

Local pages and the structured data search engines use to understand where you are and what you carry.

06

Look like your space

A site that feels like walking in: considered, uncluttered and true to your style.

01 · THE COLLECTION

The work, front and centre.

Artists, collections and featured pieces laid out with room to breathe. New work is easy to add, so the site keeps up with your walls and your shelves.

  • Artist and collection pages
  • Big photos that do the work justice
  • New pieces you can add yourself

  • RSVPs and mailing list sign-ups
  • Past shows kept as a record of your work

03 · VISIT OR BUY

Visit in person, or buy from home.

Hours and directions for people who want to come in, and a simple way to inquire about or buy a piece for people who can’t.

  • Hours and holiday changes, always visible
  • Inquiries or a simple online shop
  • Directions and parking, one tap away

Questions

Galleries & Shops website questions.

How much does it cost?

Most galleries and shops fit our Basic ($1,500) or Startup ($3,000) package. Startup includes local search pages. Payment plans are available, so setup fees can be split into monthly payments.

Can we sell online?

Yes. Depending on what you need, we can build a simple inquiry flow for pieces or connect a straightforward online shop.

Can we add new work ourselves?

Yes. New pieces, collections and events are quick to add, so the site keeps up with what’s on the walls.

Can people RSVP to events?

Yes. Events can include an RSVP or mailing list sign-up, so you know who’s coming.

Do you write the copy and use our own photos?

We can write the copy and design around photos you already have. If you need photography of the work or the space, costs depend on availability and location, and we’ll tell you up front.

What’s a local page, and do we need one?

A local page targets people searching in a specific town, like “art gallery Collingwood.” It helps you get found by visitors who are already nearby.
