Ongoing support & SEO assistance
Using WordPress as a marketing and sales tool.
As well as selling beers and products on the site, Hooky also offer tours of their brewery and membership options.
We also added a pub finder so visitors to the site could find a Hooky pub local to them to sample their amazing beers.
The site has been built in such a way that the marketing team at Hooky can manage all the day-to-day aspects of editing content with a minimal requirement to have to put in support requests.
Premium functionality.
Here at Toast, we own developer licences for many premium plugins that add solid and reliable functionality to our client’s websites. Hooky’s site benefits from these plugins to add a lot of functionality that would have significantly to the budget if they’d had to source and purchase them all themselves.
WooCommerce Hosting
Busy WooCommerce sites do put a strain on hosting, so we host this site on one of our dedicated WordPress servers to ensure the site is fast to load and really stable.
Ongoing support & SEO
We always suggest that clients have some form of ongoing support or maintenance contract for WooCommerce sites as the themes and plugin configurations can get quite complex.
