Websites for shops, stays & tours

For first-time travellers
and loyal regulars alike.

Your website should welcome a guest from overseas as warmly as a regular from down the street.
Noren Web Studio builds bilingual websites for small shops, stays and tour companies, then stays with you after launch, with a short report each month on what is working.

Our promise

Three promises

  1. 二つの言葉

    Fluent in two languages

    Talk to me in English or Japanese. Your site will greet local guests and Japanese travellers with the same warmth and care.

  2. 道しるべ

    Every page leads to a booking

    Beauty matters, but so does the path to your phone, LINE or enquiry form. Your strengths, told in words and numbers guests remember.

  3. その後も

    Care, with numbers

    Each month you get a short report on which pages were viewed and how many visits turned into calls, LINE messages or enquiries. Updates and fixes are handled by the person who built your site.

About the name

Why “Noren”

A noren is the fabric curtain hung at the entrance of a Japanese shop. Dyed with the shop’s name, it tells passers-by that the doors are open, and offers a first glimpse of the character within.
