Handicraft online store and homestay website design in Chamba.
Chamba is known for its rumal embroidery and other traditional crafts. Visitors buy them in shops, but many customers across India would buy them online if they could find a trusted seller. An online store turns a local shop into one that can sell beyond the valley.

Questions from Chamba businesses.
How many products can the store have?
As many as you need. The Online Store package covers up to 50 products, and more can be added.
Can I take payments by UPI?
Yes. UPI, cards and cash on delivery can be set up.
Do you help with photos?
We advise on how to shoot products well with a phone, and can edit them for the store.
Can I sell outside Himachal?
Yes. We set up shipping across India. Delivery times depend on the courier.
Do I own the store?
Yes. Domain, store and customer data are yours.
Do I need to register a business to sell online?
Requirements depend on your turnover and products. Check with your accountant. We build the store and you handle the registrations.
Can I sell on marketplaces too?
Yes, and many sellers do. Your own store adds a channel where you keep your full margin.
How do I handle fragile items?
Use proper packing and tell customers how it is shipped. We can add a packing note to the product page.
How long does it take to build?
A landing page takes a few days, a business website usually one to two weeks, and an online store two to four weeks. The time depends mostly on how quickly we receive your photos and details.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes. At handover we show you how to change text, photos, rates and notices, so you do not need to call a developer for small updates.
Not sure which package fits?
Send us your business details and we will suggest one. No obligation.
Photographing handicrafts for an online store
Use daylight near a window and a plain background. Show the full item, then close-ups of the stitching, the colours and the back. Add a photo with a hand or an object for scale. Buyers cannot touch the product, so the photos must do the work.
Keep colours accurate. A buyer who receives a different shade will return the item and leave a poor review. Take photos in the same light you describe.
Pricing, packing and returns
State the price including or excluding shipping, and be consistent. Explain how items are packed and how long dispatch takes. For handmade pieces, say that small variations are natural.
Write a plain return policy. Handicraft buyers value honesty, and a clear policy builds the confidence they need to order from a seller they have not met.
Selling beyond the valley
Most sales will come from other states and from people who have visited Chamba and want to reorder. Collect their phone numbers with permission and send occasional updates on new pieces through WhatsApp.
Write a few short pages about the craft: how a piece is made, what makes it different and how to care for it. Those pages answer real questions and give the store content that mass sellers do not have.
How we would structure your site.
What to send us.
You do not need everything on day one. This list is enough to start.
- Photos of your best 10 to 20 products
- Sizes, materials, colours and prices (or price on request)
- Minimum order and shipping details
- Photos of the workshop or factory
- Certifications you actually hold
- Your logo and GST details
People in and around Chamba search like this.
A craft product sells on its story: who made it, how, and from what. Show the artisan, the process and the time it takes. Be accurate about what is handmade and what is not, since buyers who care about craft are quick to notice. For stays, many guests combine Chamba with Dalhousie and Khajjiar, so say how far you are from them.
