From a deleted site to a store that sells.

Didier Cigars lost its entire website when the previous designer deleted it. We restored it, rebuilt it from scratch on WordPress and WooCommerce, set up SEO, and launched an email campaign that got a 65% click rate.

The problem

The website was gone.

The previous web designer deleted Didier Cigars' website. A premium brand with no online presence, no way to sell, and no search visibility.

There was also no SEO in place, so even before the deletion the site wasn't set up to be found on Google.

The build

Restored first, then rebuilt.

We pulled the old site back from the wreckage, ran it on a local machine, and built the new version on top of the restored one. Once it was ready, we swapped it in. The site stayed on WordPress because selling cigars needs a store that handles it well, and WooCommerce is the best fit.

Brand-first design

A dark, editorial look built around the tagline “Where Haute Couture Meets The Art Of The Blend.”

8 collections + Hors Series

Each blend has its own product page with wrapper, binder, filler, ring gauge, strength and shape.

WooCommerce store

Purchase options, cart and checkout, so every collection can be sold directly from the site.

21+ age gate

Visitors confirm their age before entering, as expected for a tobacco brand.

SEO

Set up from zero.

Before the rebuild there was no SEO at all. The new site was built to be found, and it scores a perfect 100 for SEO in Google Lighthouse.
