What your barbershop website needs and how to publish it

5 min readZotview Team

Short answer

A barbershop website needs clear services and prices, online booking, location and opening hours, real photos, WhatsApp or call buttons, and Instagram and Google links. To publish quickly, prepare those details, preview your Zotview site without signing up, review the draft, add booking and create an account to publish at zotview.com/w/your-name.

Show services and prices beside a clear booking button

Help someone choosing a haircut or beard trim understand what they will get before they book. Use familiar service names, explain what is included and show your actual prices in your business's currency. Include durations and explain any starting prices, ranges or optional extras.

Keep the list readable as text on a phone. Place a clearly labelled booking button near it so clients can move from choosing a service to choosing an appointment. Check that the service names, durations and prices on the website match the booking page.

Make the shop easy to find and contact

Write the full address, link to the correct Google Maps location and show opening hours for each day. Include useful arrival details, such as the entrance or nearby parking, only when they are accurate. Update the site when holiday hours or your regular schedule changes.

Add a WhatsApp or call button for questions and help with appointments. Check that each button reaches your business using the correct country code. Explain whether clients should use online booking or contact the team for a service that needs discussion first.

  • Services, inclusions, durations and current prices
  • An obvious route to online booking
  • Address, Google Maps link and opening hours
  • Photos of the shop and your work
  • A working WhatsApp or call button
  • Links to your Instagram profile and Google Business Profile

Use real photos and connect your existing profiles

Show the shop front so new clients can recognise it, the interior so they know what to expect, and examples of work your team actually does. Use clear images you have permission to publish and get consent before showing identifiable clients. Review any images in the draft before publishing.

Link to your shop's Instagram account and Google Business Profile from the website. Open each link to check the correct shop and branch. After publishing, share your website or booking link from your profiles too; the existing English guides below explain those steps.

Know how Zotview fits your booking routine

Zotview creates a website preview in about a minute without an account or card. You can request changes by typing what you want, then sign up to publish and keep the site. New free sites use zotview.com/w/your-name; a name.zotview.com subdomain or your own domain requires Pro or higher.

Add online booking in the same workspace so clients can choose a service and an available time. The client receives a confirmation email; your business receives an email and an entry in its dashboard. Zotview takes no commission per booking. Bookings use one shared business schedule, with no separate calendar per barber or chair.

Booking reminders arrive by email; there are no automatic SMS or WhatsApp reminders. If you request a deposit, use your business's own payment provider link. Clients enter card details and pay your business directly on the provider's page; you verify receipt and mark the booking paid. Zotview never takes, holds or splits the money.

Zotview is not a marketplace that sends new clients. Share the published link through your own profiles and existing contact channels, and keep the site's information current.

Frequently asked questions

Can I publish without buying a domain?

Yes. New free Zotview sites are published at zotview.com/w/your-name. A name.zotview.com subdomain or connecting your own domain requires Pro or higher. You need an account to publish, but not to preview.

How quickly can I publish my barbershop website?

The first Zotview preview is ready in about a minute. The time to publish depends on checking your details, reviewing the draft and preparing booking. Gather your services, prices, hours, photos and links first so you can review them together.

Is Instagram enough, or should I also have a website?

Use Instagram to show your work and link to a website where clients can read the current service list, prices, hours and address and reach booking. Link back to Instagram from the site so visitors can explore your work too.

Can clients choose a particular barber in Zotview?

Zotview bookings use one shared business schedule, with no separate calendar per barber or chair. Coordinate your team's availability before offering times. If clients need separate staff calendars, check that requirement when choosing your booking system.
