Zing Studios

Zing needed a CMS that could run a growing case study library and a shop with real checkout behind it. A custom Liquid theme on Shopify handled both. Shopify’s stock themes are built around products, though, and Zing needed the site to lead with its portfolio, so we built the theme from scratch. The homepage opens on a full-width project grid, followed by a services section using the studio’s own artwork and a client logo marquee. The shop, services, and contact pages share that design, so no part of the site reads like a storefront template.

Adding a new client project means creating a post and choosing its tags. The team publishes work on its own, with no developer involved.

The domain had been set up for the web but not for email, so contact form submissions to hello@zing-studios.com had nowhere to land. We authenticated the domain for Shopify’s sender, set up Google Workspace for the studio’s inbox, and cleaned up the DNS so both could send without being flagged as spam. We also wrote meta descriptions across the site so it shows up properly in search.

Zing has a site that leads with the work, sells product alongside it, and grows as new projects come in.
