What a seed company website needs to do
Seed shoppers search by plant, region and season, and they trust a seller that explains how to grow the variety. A site with a catalog by category, short growing guides and clear ordering lets them choose with confidence. Shipping windows matter, so say when orders go out.
Seeds are a catalog business, and the catalog can be large. Start with your best sellers organized by category, add planting guidance for each, and link to an order or checkout tool. We do not build inventory feeds, so seasonal availability is described on the page rather than synced live.
People searching for a seed company usually decide in seconds. Your site should answer the questions below before they have to ask.
Browse by category
Vegetables, herbs and flowers
Learn how to grow it
Zone, sun and spacing
Order seeds
Through your checkout or order form
Check shipping dates
When orders go out
Timing matters. Late winter and early spring are the peak ordering months.
The pages a seed company website needs
A seed company site does not need dozens of pages. It needs the right few, each doing one job:
- ✓Home with best sellers — the catalog entry
- ✓Catalog by category
- ✓Growing guides
- ✓Ordering and shipping — dates and rules
- ✓About the grower — where seeds come from
Need a page for every service or town you cover? The larger packages give you room to grow.
Mistakes we see on seed company websites
- ✓A catalog with no growing information — shoppers cannot choose
- ✓No shipping dates
- ✓No zone guidance — wrong plants for the area
