SHELA™ is a manufacturer of hats for children. Before the creation of a full-fledged Internet store in our agency, the client had an outlet on Barabashovo market and a website on prom.ua (wholesale of goods). Later, the customer decided to expand the range and sell not only hats for children, but additionally clothing, and hats for men and women, both in retail and wholesale.

- Create a website with all the convenient features for wholesalers.
- Combine the functionality of wholesale and retail.
- MobileFirst design and development.
- Gather semantics, create a structure, recommendation on the technical part of the site.
- Competitive analysis.
- Creation of terms of reference.
After communicating with the client and understanding their needs, we studied the competitive sites, we found on this topic. We came up with the best functional solutions to offer to the client for their implementation. At this stage, it was decided to create a personal account for wholesalers with a number of functional features.
From the very beginning, the site was designed considering SEO requirements. The designer coordinated all decisions with the SEO specialist. If the ideas of a “”user-friendly page”” and “”a good page for search robots”” differed, we searched for a solution that suited everyone.
In addition to the solutions we agreed upon at the design stage, we took into account other technical nuances. The site is large, and the development of a new version inevitably changes its structure, layout, the order of blocks on the page, change landing pages for queries.
It was important to keep the site positions and provide the possibility for their growth, so with all such changes it was necessary to minimize the risk of errors. Appearance of duplicate pages was controlled, redirects, subdomains, internal optimization on landing pages, and so on were checked.
Visual structure

– Finalized structure ( including SEO during the development stage)
We wrote out all the solutions we found, which were not discussed in the first stages of the work, created a list of questions, and after discussing them with the client we identified the necessary functionality. After the discussion, we wrote the technical specifications along with the development of prototypes.
We started with the mobile version of the site, which was the basis for all the other screen sizes. At first, we worked out the product catalog and the product card, since they are the most convertible pages. Then developed the home page, personal account, and various internal pages.
In the end, we received a clickable prototype which was approved by the client.
After rendering the prototype pages, we approved the overall design concept and implemented it on all internal pages. Apart from the creative component, we also worked out the logical structure of the web pages, and the usability of the site (the usability part).
We transmitted a sense of warmth and comfort through design. Entering the site, users understand that the company makes its products with love for both adults and children.
An adaptive layout for different screen resolutions was implemented.
The site is based on CMS – Opencart, with custom development of the required functionality. In site development, the requirements of SEO were considered at the stage of development (for example, quality implementation of the product filter with landing pages for each filter).
A complex of works on the optimization of the loading speed of the site was carried out.
As a result, we got high Google Page Speed Insights (for mobile 95-97 out of 100, for desktop 99-100 out of 100).
