Black Mountain Honey: a Wix Studio redesign and a new brand

Black Mountain Honey's owner built their first Wix site himself, and the business outgrew it. We redesigned it on Wix Studio with a new logo and branding, keeping the Wix back office he already knew.

The brief

What Miller's Way came to us for

Treatment rooms upstairs, a dojo for classes downstairs, and a hand-picked team of practitioners under one roof. Over 150 Google reviews, averaging 4.9. The old website showed almost none of that.

  • Acupuncture front and centre. It's the heart of the clinic and the main source of revenue.
  • A booking journey that didn't send people round in circles.
  • The calm of the real space coming through on screen.
  • Less writing. Much less.
  • Dojo hire as a proper page, with 2027 dates people could request themselves.

The challenge

The real problem underneath

  • A DIY site, outgrown Built with enthusiasm three years earlier, it now looked dated and struggled under more traffic.
  • Do it yourself, or hire someone? Redoing it alone was risky. Hiring meant trusting someone new with the business.
  • Too many options International agencies and freelancers everywhere, and few who specialised in Wix for a UK business.

What we did

Mostly standard Wix, set up properly

Almost everything is a standard Wix app or the Wix CMS. Very little is custom code. That's deliberate: Miller's Way can run the site without ringing us.

  • 01 Strategy before pixels Their own marketing strategy handed us the sitemap. Treatments, Classes and Workshops, and Learning each get their own lane, and one Book Treatment button follows you everywhere.
  • 02 Careful copy for a health site Short, clear and careful. A “Hormonal health” tab became “Metabolic health”, because the clinic won't claim to balance anyone's hormones. Real practitioners, real reviews and careful claims are the SEO strategy here.
  • 03 Wix Bookings, set up the way a clinic runs 28 services and 17 practitioners moved into Wix Bookings. Each founder card carries that person's own appointments and packs, with the price and the booking button right next to them.
  • 04 One page to book any treatment Every practitioner gets one row. Founders expand to show their services and prices. Partners who run their own diaries get a button straight to their own system.
  • 05 A CMS that does the admin Every practitioner lives in one CMS collection, sorted into tiers. A new therapist joins? Add a row and they appear in the right place with the right booking link.
  • 06 Dojo hire with a gatekeeper Request to book in Wix Bookings. Visitors pick a date and send a request, and nothing is confirmed until Miller's Way approves it.
  • 07 Reviews that answer the real question Google reviews brought into the CMS and tagged by theme, 35 tags from Back Pain to Studio Hire, so people find stories that match theirs.
  • The newly designed Black Mountain Honey website
  • Black Mountain Honey on desktop, mobile and tablet

What the client said

“VIS Marketing have more than lived up to my very high expectations. Communication is everything in the world of website design projects and there no-one better at communication than Matt. He is happy, courteous, imaginative, straight-to-the-point and delivers on his promises in terms of quality, time and budget. It has been such a pleasure working with VIS Marketing that I am a little bit sad the project is coming to an end.”
Laurence · Founder, Black Mountain Honey

What happened after launch

A modern, clean website that shows off the products, works on every device and copes with busy periods, plus a brand that holds together everywhere it appears. The project came in on time and on budget, and the owner then booked a 12-month SEO programme.
