Young’s Caravan & Camping E-Commerce Web Design
Visit this website: youngscaravanandcamping.co.uk
Having had phenomenal success with their first e-commerce website, youngsboatyard.co.uk, Young’s Marine & Leisure came to us to design and develop their latest online venture.
Selling caravan and camping equipment, this too was to be powered by our easy-to-use e-commerce system, Ballyhoo Commerce.
The design of the site was to reflect the rugged beauty of the outdoors, with a strong colour palette and an approachable feel.
Young’s large product catalogue means that this website is a one-stop shop for all of your outdoor leisure requirements. And with such a large volume of products, Ballyhoo Commerce’s flexible and robust category structuring is ideal to keep on top of things.
This website is also employing the SagePay Server Integration – a payment processor that lets your customer stay on your website throughout the whole transaction process without having to submit their details to a third-party site. An SSL certificate is a requirement for this type of payment gateway to ensure your customers’ details are transmitted securely. SSL certified websites are notable by the locked padlock symbol in your browser’s address bar or, more recently, a green ‘https’ at the start of the website’s URL.
Young’s wanted their customers to be able to easily switch between their two websites so we used JQuery to build a neat page curl effect in the top right corner of the website.
When users hover their cursor over the arrow in the corner, the current page will ‘peel’ back to reveal the Young’s Boat Yard logo and branding. Users can then click the link to visit youngsboatyard.co.uk.
An identical effect will be used on the Young’s Boat Yard website to maintain consistency and give users on that site a way to reach this website too.
