Template Customization
You chose the template. Let me make it yours.
Picking a Showit template is the easy part. Fitting your own brand and content into it can take more evenings than you have. Choose any template from The Coastal Edit and I'll take it from there. You'll get back a site that looks like your business.
What I take care of:
Customization of Selected Showit Template
Got a Showit template you love? Great! I’ll take it and supercharge it. We’re talking full-scale customization to make it scream 'you' in every pixel. It’s not just a tweak here and there; it’s a total transformation to fit your unique style and brand essence.
Integration of Brand Colors and Fonts
Colors and fonts speak volumes. I’ll infuse your brand’s color palette and typography into the template, ensuring a consistent and cohesive brand identity. It’s all about creating that visual impact that sticks with your audience.
Content Layout Optimization
Flow is key. I arrange your content for the best user experience. It’s about guiding your visitors seamlessly through your site, with every section strategically placed for maximum engagement and impact.
Brand-Specific Design Adjustments
Your brand has a personality, and your website needs to match it. From color schemes that pop to layouts that flow like a dream, I’ll align every aspect of the design with your brand's vibe. Expect a visual symphony that harmoniously blends with your brand's voice.
Custom Graphics and Element Design
Stand out with custom graphics that are as unique as your brand. Whether it’s icons, banners, or buttons, I create design elements that add that extra ‘oomph’ to your site. This isn’t cookie-cutter stuff; it’s tailor-made design gold.
SEO Basics Implementation
Get found online. I’ll lay down the SEO groundwork to boost your site’s visibility. It's about weaving those SEO essentials into your site’s fabric, so you rank as high as your ambitions.

The Templates You Can Choose From
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from custom website design?
Template customization starts with an existing Showit template and fits it to your brand, photos, and copy. Custom design starts from a blank page. If that sounds closer to what you need, explore custom design at Salt & Spruce Creative.
Do I need to buy the template separately?
Yes. You purchase the template from The Coastal Edit, and customization is a separate service. You own the template and its license.
Can you customize a template from another designer?
Customization through The Coastal Edit is for my own templates. If you have a template from another designer, I offer customization through Salt & Spruce Creative.
What do I need before we start?
Your logo, brand colors and fonts, website copy, and photos. I'll send a checklist so you know exactly what to gather.
How long does it take?
Most customizations are finished within one week once I have all of your materials.
Can I request layout changes?
Minor adjustments are included, such as moving sections, changing button styles, or swapping layouts between pages. For larger changes, I'm happy to send a custom quote.
What isn't included?
Extensive copywriting, logo or brand design, and ongoing site updates. If you need a brand, the semi-custom brand kits in The Coastal Edit pair well with any template.
Is support available after launch?
The Works includes one month of launch support. Ongoing support is available if you need it.
