Sitefolk — Managed Websites for Small Businesses

A premium, editorially designed Next.js landing page for Sitefolk, a website-as-a-service business for UK small businesses.

Overview

Sitefolk positions itself between the hassle of DIY builders (Wix/Squarespace) and the high cost of traditional web agencies. The core promise is: "Your website. Taken care of."

This project is built using:

  • Next.js 16 (App Router)
  • React 19
  • TailwindCSS v4
  • TypeScript

Features & Architecture

  • Editorial Typography: Uses Google Fonts (Outfit for bold, confident headers and Inter for highly readable body copy).
  • Restrained Color Palette: Uses an off-white cream background (#F7F7F3), dark ink text (#171717), and a subtle green accent (#6B9B4A).
  • Custom Components:
    • SitefolkNav (with animated soft underlines and a full-screen mobile menu)
    • SitefolkHero (featuring a realistic generated plumbing website mockup)
    • ProblemSection (high-contrast without vs. with Sitefolk breakdown)
    • WebsiteShowcase (highlighting local trades, professional services, and hospitality mockups)
    • PricingSection (clear, uncluttered comparison of Essential and Pro plans)
    • FAQSection (accessible accordion)

Setup & Local Development

  1. Install dependencies:

    npm install
    
  2. Run the development server:

    npm run dev
    
  3. Open http://localhost:3000 in your browser.

SEO & Metadata

The site is configured with robust metadata via layout.tsx, including Open Graph images, Twitter cards, and a metadataBase pointing to the live domain: https://sitefolk.opitien.xyz.

Design Philosophy

This landing page intentionally avoids the generic "SaaS template" aesthetic (no floating 3D objects, heavy gradients, or glassmorphism everywhere). Instead, it leans into a digital studio / editorial feel with large, confident typography, solid structural lines, and realistic visual proof of the websites Sitefolk builds.
