Example

A website for a craft shop in Sarchí

Visitors pick up painted oxcarts in Sarchí, Boruca masks carved for the Diablitos festival and Chorotega pottery from Guaitil, and Ticos buy the same pieces as gifts. So the site shows each piece with who made it and where, and its price in colones, for the visitor who finds the shop on Google Maps and wants to know about shipping.

Sizes and materials

How big each piece is, what it is made of and how to care for it.

Shipping abroad

Where you send, how you pack fragile pieces and what shipping costs.

The makers

A photo and a few words about each artisan or family workshop.

Your shop or stall

A map and your hours, including market days.

siWhatsapp

Turn visitors into conversations

Every page has a WhatsApp button, so a customer who has seen what they need can message you in one tap. Every site comes in Spanish and English.

Search and AI

Help visitors find your crafts, during their trip and after it

Visitors ask AI assistants where to buy Sarchí oxcarts and Chorotega pottery from the people who make them. Your website shows your work, your prices, where the shop is and whether you ship.
