premade website templates
If you are in a hurry or on a tight budget, a premade website might be the perfect option for you!
Our StudioElite.ca template sites are more than just website templates! We are offering "customizable" premade websites. That's right! Each website includes 5 hours of design time so you can make it your own. Want to alter the layout a bit? Use a different color palette? Integrate your existing logo design? No problem! You will have 5 hours with our web + graphic designer to make the site look like it was custom made for you.
Premade website templates are becoming more and more popular. In fact, there are businesses who provide nothing but website templates.
Just make sure you know what you are getting.
A lot of designers sell their templates over and over again. Or, they offer them in limited number ~ i.e., they will sell it 5 times and then retire it. Either way, the bottom line is that your site will look exactly like someone else's. Is that what you want?
In the overcrowded world of online sales where you are trying to set yourself apart from your competitors, your brand identity is a key component. Do you want a website that could be confused for someone else? No, you want a website that is unique, memorable and undeniably yours.
StudioElite.ca does occasionally offer premade web templates, but please know that ours are 100% one of a kind (OOAK). These designs are typically concepts that were not chosen by another customer for one reason or another. We liked them so much that we decided to finished up the design work and offer them at a significant discount off our custom design rate.
