We know, copy is one of the most daunting tasks when it comes to creating your photography website. But don’t worry—we’ve got your back! We use a strategic approach to help make sure you’re communicating your unique value to potential clients. We’ll provide you with a questionnaire that helps dig deep and puts yourself in their shoes. When you’re done, we’ll have everything we need to help you create website copy that attracts and converts those dream clients!
Goals in this phase:
• Identify your dream client persona, pain points, and journey
• Better understand how to communicate your unique value
• Submit your Client Journey Questionnaire so we can apply it to your copy
• Provide us with any additional website copy you’d like to include on your website
What’s the point of a beautiful website if it doesn’t have the right strategies in place to bring you traffic? We will do SEO keyword research to determine what specific locations, niches and other words people would actually type into Google to find your photography website. Then, we’ll provide you with these keywords, along with specific image names + sizing specifics, so you can make sure the images you upload for us for your template customization are SEO-friendly. We’ll add these keywords into your Page Titles and Page Descriptions, so Google can easily understand what your website is all about.
Goals in this phase:
• Identify which keywords people are actually typing in to Google to find your website
• We’ll add these keywords to your Page Titles and Descriptions to help Google better understand your website structure
• Upload photos from your portfolio with SEO-friendly image names + sizing to set your images up for success
Now you can sit back, relax, and make yourself the cocktail that your Tonic template was named after. This is when we take all of your brand elements, strategic copy, portfolio galleries, SEO keywords, and more to the Showit template you purchased in step one. This phase will typically take 4 weeks as it includes the desktop and mobile design of your website as well as any revisions that you have!
Goals in this phase:
• Provide us with your favorite portfolio images + headshots in a Dropbox folder that we provide
• Relax and get excited while your Showit template is completely customized just for you!
• Provide specific feedback for revisions to be made
• Start planning how you’re going to make the big announcement!
It’s time to pop the confetti and get excited for your BRAND NEW website! Showit will point your domain name to look at your Showit website, so it can successfully launch to the rest of the Internet. We’ll finish final testing during this phase and ask you to sign off on the final design. Then, we’ll send you a personalized walk-through video, so you feel comfortable updating your new website moving forward.
Goals in this phase:
• Provide us with your previous website’s login information (for blog migration purposes only — only Squarespace and Wordpress apply)
• Provide us with your domain login information
• We’ll send everything over to Showit and provide you with a date that you can announce your new website to your audience!
• You’ll receive a Showit walk-through video for future updates

Phase 2 of the Template Customization process dives into the Client Journey Questionnaire, which usually provides us with about 85% of your website copy. Any remaining copy that you want to provide (usually includes pricing/packages details, facts for your About Page, etc.) can be provided to us by you via a Word Doc in Dropbox! If you do prefer to hire a copywriter from start-to-finish for your website, we can provide you with names of a few that we recommend!
It sure does! We will design a landing page for your blog and a single blog post page based on the template you choose. For blog content migration, you will need to have your previous blog on Squarespace or Wordpress.
We’d LOVE to help you with your brand design! Let us know when you inquire if you’re also interested in custom brand design and we can provide you with a quote.
