Project Description:
The goal of this project is to design and develop a professional, visually interesting, easy to navigate, mobile responsive website for the Client’s domain: thesavorycellar.com
- Professional Design: A visually appealing and user-friendly design that reflects your brand identity.
- Intuitive Navigation: A clear and easy-to-navigate structure to guide visitors through your website.
- WordPress: A robust content management system (CMS) that empowers you to manage and update your website content with ease.
- Mobile Optimization: A responsive design that ensures optimal viewing and functionality across all devices, including smartphones and tablets.
- Ecommerce Integration: Shopify will be integrated with the website to handle membership, event ticket and product purchasing.
In order to develop a website that fulfills all the goals of this project, the proposed web development will take place in several distinct phases:
PLANNING:
The scope, requirements, and description of the final website will be determined, including the overarching site goals, number of pages, site hierarchy, forms, animations/graphics, and other specialized content. The Client will be presented with a design questionnaire to determine style preferences.
CONCEPT DESIGN:
Webene will create a new website design based on client requirements. The new design will focus on the elements outlined in client’s design questionnaire – including structure and organization, layouts, photos and images.
- In-depth Consultation – We will collaborate closely with you to understand your vision and goals. The design process will be guided by your comprehensive design questionnaire responses.
- Design Concept Development – Based on your input, we will create design mockups that highlight the structure, organization, layout, and visual elements of your website. Design mock-ups will be created and presented to client within two weeks.
- Client Review and Feedback – We will present the design mockups for your review and incorporate your feedback into up to two revision rounds.
- Website Development – Once the design is finalized, we will begin the development process to bring your website to life.
DEVELOPMENT / PROGRAMMING:
- CMS Installation – We will install WordPress, a robust Content Management System (CMS) tailored to your specific needs. The CMS used for your site will be WordPress
- Theme Customization – Our skilled designers will transform the approved design mockups into a custom website theme. This theme will be meticulously crafted to align with your brand identity and user experience goals.
- Theme Integration – The custom theme will be seamlessly integrated with the CMS, ensuring a smooth and efficient content management process.
- Site Structure and Navigation – We will develop a clear and intuitive site structure, including navigation menus and internal linking, to optimize user experience and search engine visibility.
PAGE DEVELOPMENT:
We will create pages that align with the project’s scope and requirements, incorporating a variety of content formats such as text, images, videos, and PDFs. For existing websites, we will carefully migrate the existing content to the new website. This includes transferring text, images, and other media elements. We will provide training on how to use the CMS to add, edit, and manage content on your website after launch.
- Home page – A visually striking hero image, slideshow ove video showcasing products/service with headline. A concise and compelling overview of The Savory Cellar’s mission, values, products, services and expertise. Call to action and contact form
- About – Detailed information about Savory Cellar.
- Join the Celler Society – Information about membership services and opportunity to purchase different membership levels. (powered by Shopify)

After content has been transferred over and filled in on the new site, clients will have two opportunities to request revisions. Any additional changes beyond two revisions will be subject to additional charges.
Shopify (e-commerce) Integration
To integrate e-commerce capabilities into your website, we recommend establishing an account with Shopify. This platform will enable you to efficiently manage your memberships, products, and event tickets.
Once your Shopify account and online store are fully configured, we will proceed with the integration process. This involves:
- Adding your membership listings to the “Join the Cellar Society” page.
- Showcasing your products on the “Boutique” page.
- Displaying event tickets on the “Events” page.
This structured approach ensures a seamless and professional e-commerce experience for your website visitors.
