# A good webshop? Here's how!

## The 4 ingredients for a successful webshop

Life moves fast, and you can take that quite literally. After a long day at work, who has the energy to wait in a fast-food restaurant? No one! With a webshop, you don't have to. Your food is ready exactly on time with just one click. But what does a good webshop look like exactly?

Craving fries? Then it's frustrating to first see a long list of sandwiches. Do you want a side of ketchup? It's convenient to be able to order it with your fries right away, isn't it? A good webshop is easy, fast, and visually appealing. And [Unipage](https://unipage.be/en) has everything it takes to make that happen.

## Sandwiches, fries, or maybe a snack?

There are two types of eaters: the eternal indecisive ones, and of course, customers who always order the same thing. 'Fries with stew sauce and a cheese croquette,' to name one example. In a fast-food restaurant, you only need seven words for that, but in a webshop, it can sometimes be a challenge. Unless you organize everything neatly into categories. A cheese croquette goes under '*snacks*,' lemonade under '*drinks*,' spaghetti under '*prepared dishes*,' and fries are quickly found under... '*fries*!' And yes, even the eternal indecisive ones will thank you for all those handy lists.

## Veggie? Check!

It's logical that a cheese croquette falls under '*snacks*,' but you could also categorise it under '*vegetarian*.' The same goes for vegetarian spring rolls, noodles, or mozzarella sticks. To avoid having to come up with endless categories, you can use *tags*. With a tag, you group products from multiple categories. This way, your customers can see at a glance what's vegetarian, spicy, or vegan with just one click.

## Allergens

Since 2014, every restaurant owner is obliged to inform customers about the (potential) presence of allergens in dishes. And yes, this can also be done in a webshop. This way, you can let your customers know that your chili cheese nuggets contain gluten and milk, or that your homemade pasta with curry sauce contains celery and mustard.

## With or without salt?

"Do you want salt on your fries?" It's a question that a fast-food operator asks at least a hundred times a day. Makes sense because not everyone just says 'yes.' If you have a webshop, it would be fantastic if your customers who order online also get that question. And believe it or not, it's possible thanks to our product variations. The word says it all: you create variations on a specific product. This way, customers can easily choose a large or small portion of fries, with or without salt, sauce on the fries or in a container.
