A Web Designer’s Favorite Showit Website Templates 

If you’ve found yourself on this page, you’re probably a service-based business owner finally looking into redesigning your website or setting one up for the very first time. If that’s the case, you are in the perfect place. My name is Kelly, and I’m a brand and web designer for creatives and service-based businesses! I’m so happy you’re here, especially as I dive into one of my favorite topics: custom website and Showit website templates! 

Pros and Cons of Showit Website Templates 

Have you been stuck between choosing a Showit website template or going for a custom web design? I get it. I’ve had many conversations with creative business owners who have no idea which is best for their business. I hope this blog brings you some clarity! 

First and foremost, templates are a great choice when you’re designing on a budget. There are hundreds of phenomenal Showit website templates out there, and I know you can find one that’s perfect for your business. But the thing to remember about templates is that they’re an outline, not a finished product. 

Templates provide a base layer. You need to customize it from there. This includes the obvious things, like adding your pictures, videos, and copy. But it also includes the less obvious and often more challenging things, like customizing page layouts for your specific packages, adjusting colors and fonts to match your brand, and incorporating any SEO tools that the template doesn’t include. 

Custom web design, on the other hand, takes all of your content into account before the design process even begins! When your website is crafted for you, it will highlight your images, copy, and brand so that your selling points shine the most. Buttttttt, custom copy is often more expensive and can take a long time. 

At the end of the day, your decision will likely be determined by where you are in your business. Sometimes you need something done more quickly and affordably. That’s the perfect place for a template! Other times, you know something needs to change, but you don’t have the time to do it yourself. That’s when you work with a web designer, like me! 

My Favorite Showit Website Templates

If you’ve read this far and really feel like a template is your best option, keep reading! These are my three absolute favorite Showit website templates, and I think they’re some of the best you can find on the market. 

The Beholden Template from Alisabeth Designs 

Alisabeth is a well-known designer in the wedding industry. Her templates are perfect for wedding vendors who want something intentionally crafted with all the core pages. The Beholden Template comes with the core pages: Home, About, Services (called Experience) and Contact. As a bonus, it also includes a Portfolio and Blog page! All of Alisabeth’s templates require a separate SEO guide for $50. I highly encourage you to implement the instructions in the guide, or better yet, have me optimize the template for you with my full optimization package or a VIP day! 

The Beholden Template starts at only $500. 

The Hayley Template from Lauren Rich Creative 

The Hayley Template is a bold and unashamed design from Lauren Rich Creative. Perfect for creatives with big personalities, this template includes the basic page and then some. The template is SEO optimized and mobile-friendly, and includes extra important pages like a lead magnet landing page, 404 page, blog categories, and site credit. 

This Showit Website Template starts at $949, and you can add on all sorts of goodies like illustration packs and licenses for specialty fonts. 

The Magnolia Interior Design Template by Valery Pekic 

The Magnolia Interior Design Template is sold and promoted by Showit, so you know it’s good. I think this template perfectly balances minimal and detail-oriented design. It’s the perfect basis for anyone building their brand. This template includes the base pages along with a portfolio page, blog, lead magnet landing page, and coming soon page. 

Grab it for $499.
