the main site Design, Logo, Company Slogan and Links to central pages.
It is essential that this sector attracts the user, as this is the front
cover of the site i.e. shop front. There will also be a brief description
of what is on offer. If there are any specials or a service that needs
to be promoted this is the page to do it.

for example, fabrics, cloth, accessories and more. There will also be
a link to a special offers page and an order product page. This page
will give the product range of the company.

discount prices for existing services.
