Their Story

Founded in 2000, 1ink.com offers discounted premium printing products from virtually every major brand, serving a customer base including individuals, schools, small businesses, and Fortune 500 companies.

Committed to providing the best shopping experience for a diverse client base, 1ink.com set out to revamp their site based on direct customer feedback. They partnered with IntuitSolutions to build a single, flexible site that works on any device, helping customers quickly and easily find the right products for their printing needs.

The Challenge

Like many clients we’ve worked with, 1ink.com was still using a separate mobile template for their site. Aside from providing a poor user experience on mobile devices, this also meant they were losing out on SEO benefits, with the advent of Google’s algorithm update to a mobile-first indexing approach. 

In addition to developing a responsive site, 1ink.com wanted to preserve the recognizable aspects of their previous desktop site. They wanted the new site to benefit from improved functionality but didn’t want to disrupt the brand they’ve spent years building or confuse their loyal customer base.

The Solution

The 1ink.com project included a collaboratively designed mobile website and an updated theme developed responsively on the state-of-the-art BigCommerce Stencil framework. The entire process was overseen by a dedicated Project Manager and supported by our in-house team of BigCommerce experts in e-commerce design and development.

The new site was developed using the latest responsive coding practices with the primary goal of improving mobile design and usability. This means that phones, tablets, desktops, and laptop computers will all display an optimized, scaled, and usable version of 1ink.com.

  • Mobile responsive redesign creating a seamless site display on any device.
  • Updated desktop design to match their previous website.
  • Custom homepage header with improved search bar and more organized layout.
  • Quick Ink Finder Tool that helps customers quickly narrow results for their needs.
  • Custom “1 in cart” feature that displays quantity of current product in shopping cart.
