Beauty Salons are becoming a bit of a specialty here at FutureProof Digital, this is the second in 12 months. Orla’s beauty Studio is located on the main street in Castlerea Co. Roscommon. There will be more work to do on this website in the future, but to begin with the focus was on sales, so we built a Skincare Products Website with only a contact page to book beauty treatments.
There are a number of business models that require an E-Commerce website, but you can break most of them down into 2 groups; product you make and sell yourself, and products that you buy from a supplier and re-sell. This website is the latter, and so involves researching the supplier websites for info about the products, and images, to populate the product pages. All in a days work here, I’ve built a number of these websites in recent years, some much larger than this one, so I hit the ground running.
Located on Main St Castlerea offering a wide range of treatments including Waxing, Specialized waxing, Nails, Tanning, Facials, Make Up, Brow Lamination, Threading and Lash lifts, and much more…
“Great service, Adam done a fantastic job on designing my website for my beauty salon. He included all the finer details of each and every product and nothing was an issue if I needed to change anything. He is very professional, helpful and continues to provide ongoing support. Couldn’t recommend him enough, absolutely delighted with it. Thanks very much Adam from Orla’s Beauty Studio.”
We design logos and graphics here all the time, but this client already has a logo, so we had a great starting point in terms of colour and style. It's rare that you can take any image file and upload it to a website without first doing some editing. For this logo I needed to remove the black strokes from a water effect background, and photoshop makes this super simple. We are the only company offering Web Design in Roscommon, but there are many extra services that FutureProof Digital provide, that other may not.
Images are often an issue for new businesses. When you getting things off the ground the last thing on your mind is photography. This gap is one that we identified a number of years ago and our solution is to provide any and all images required by our clients as part of the package. We subscribe to extensive image and asset libraries, millions of high quality, web-ready visuals for our clients to choose from.
FutureProof Digital is most certainly a WordPress design company, there is not a better tool on the market for building a Skincare Products Website (or any other type of website). WordPress is a blank slate, you can do anything your imagination can dream of, but you have to program it. Every website I hand over is customized for the needs of the business running it. Each one has a custom dashboard in this case shortcuts to orders, product and stats. If you are looking for web design in Roscommon, it can be hard to choose the right provider for you. Look at the extra features we provide compared to other businesses.
Probably the most important page of a Skincare Products Website, or any E-Commerce Website, the single product page. This is where you sell the item to your customers. The top half of the page contains the main image, a short description, price etc. The bottom half contains more detailed information, if the customers wishes to view it, ingredients for example. Lastly there related products, displayed dynamically by product category.
An E-Commerce website, succeeds or fails, wins or looses, on it's navigation; how easy is it for customers the find what they are looking for. There 2 primary data points on this website; brand and product category. On the shop page customers can select brand or category from drop down menus and view products in a more refined way.
WooCommerce is a powerful tool, it powers a large percentage of the worlds E-Commerce websites, but it, and other aspects of the WordPress experience, has imitations. When I start a new project the screen is blank, no themes, no templates. It's more work this way of course, but I want each website out of FutureProof Digital to be totally unique, no two the same. For this site, working in this way led to a unique grid layout on the shop pages, using the colour scheme and font from the client, added to the creative of the process.
If you’re a small business owner, then you know that having a website is essential in today’s world. Not only does it give your customers another way to find out about your business, but it also allows you to reach a larger audience than you would be able to if you were only relying on word-of-mouth advertising. However, just because everyone has a website these days doesn’t mean that yours will be successful. It takes careful planning and execution to create a small business website that will help grow your company.
At FutureProof Digital, we understand the importance of small business websites. That’s why we specialize in creating websites that are not only visually appealing and user-friendly, but also optimized for search engines so that you can get the most out of your investment.

In 2022 customers expect your business to have an online store. They love your business, and they want to order your products online and have them delivered to the door.

A FutureProof Digital online shop is bespoke, no templates or themes, designed for your business from the ground up.
With WooCommerce powering your ecommerce shop, you can be sure that it will be a success. WooCommerce is one of the most popular ecommerce plugins available for WordPress, with over 40 million downloads. WooCommerce can handle any kind of ecommerce shop, from a small online store to a huge online marketplace. And it’s not just popular with business owners users – it’s number one with developers.

For a number of years now (and this is only set to continue) two words have come to the forefront of website design; speed and responsiveness. The time it takes for your website to load, especially on mobile because Google measures this first, is vitally important. The search engines measure this time and it influences your website’s rankings. Keeping your customers waiting is bad for business, and not just in your store.
Creating a website that responds to the device it’s being viewed on used to be an optional extra, something that was nice to have but not essential. However, with more and more people using their phones and tablets to access the internet, having a responsive website has become a must. Responsive websites automatically adjust their layout and design depending on the size of the screen they are being displayed on, making them perfect for all devices.
If you want your business to stay ahead of the curve, then you need to make sure your website is responsive. At FutureProof Digital we can help you create a website that looks great no matter what device it’s being viewed on.
As of this year WordPress powers 43.3% of all websites on the internet, and 300 of the top 1000 sites. But that’s not why we use it, we use it because of you. WordPress web design is faster and better than any other platform; Wix, SquareSpace or Shopify are not in the same bracket. Faster means efficiency and value for money. Every client asks, “can I easily update the website myself ?” and the answer, most of the time is YES !! Some websites require a little training but in most cases a WordPress website is as easy to run as a Facebook page.
We are based in Roscommon, so naturally much of our work is here, and we are really proud of that. We like to meet clients in person or visit their business. This personal contact gives your site the design edge it needs. We get a real feel for the needs of the business before we begin.
We also complete contracts at a national and international level. We work with charities, The Irish heart Foundation for example, leading politicians and parties, as well global tour providers. We have fun with every one of our clients, on every website, large or small.
FutureProof Digital takes care of every aspect of the web design process; starting with your domain name. We set everything up, including your SSL security cert. This is included as part of every contract for the first year at no extra cost.
The same goes for web hosting. We set everything up for you, and provide a free year of hosting with every website. At the end of year 1 we transfer your site to your dedicated hosting plan free of charge, just a few clicks.
I’m sure there will be future updates to share about Orla’s Beauty Studio. There will be, I’m sure, hundreds of new products to add to this Skincare Products Website, and an entire section of the website dedicated to the treatments offered at the salon, this could be up to 10 more pages.
