Challenges
Design a responsive, intuitive site with strong branding while enabling easy content updates and seamless product recommendations.
The Journey
What We Did
We designed and developed a visually appealing, user-friendly WordPress website with a focus on clean, intuitive navigation. The custom website included an easy-to-use Content Management System (CMS) to allow the client to upload new blogs and products with minimal effort.
We also designed a custom logo that truly encapsulated Himley Hikers’ passion for the outdoors. The logo incorporated elements of nature, with earthy tones and a rugged mountain design, symbolising both the adventure and freedom associated with hiking. This bespoke logo helped to solidify the brand’s identity, giving the website an authentic and professional feel.
For monetisation, we integrated the Amazon Affiliates program, allowing the client to easily recommend hiking products through blog posts and earn commissions. Additionally, we ensured that the website was fully responsive, offering a seamless experience across devices for a diverse audience.
The Result
Project Success
In the first six months, Himley Hikers saw over 10,000 visitors to the site, thanks to a mix of engaging, well-written content and a strong social media presence. The user-friendly blog web design and seamless mobile experience helped keep visitors engaged, encouraging them to explore more blog posts and recommended products.
The integration of the Amazon Affiliates program also proved successful, with a steady stream of affiliate sales generated from product recommendations. As a result, Himley Hikers not only built a growing community of outdoor enthusiasts but also created a sustainable revenue stream, positioning the brand for long-term success in the hiking niche.
