Challenge
A family craft brand needed a premium public site with inquiry capture, build journal storytelling, and a path to myfamilycrafts.net production — without ecommerce scope or a separate CMS.
Family craftLive
The Durrant Family Craft
myfamilycrafts.net — premium candles, engraving, embroidery, and custom gifts with Talk A9 inquiry flows and timeline journal integration.
Approach
Next.js on Railway with volume-backed leads, Talk A9 on contact, and journal pages fed from the Ace9 timeline publish pipeline and optional Supabase published feed.
- Canonical domain myfamilycrafts.net (legacy aliases 301 to primary)
- Homepage journal teaser plus /journal/[slug] entry pages
- SEO: sitemap, robots, Organization JSON-LD, /api/readiness
Outcomes
The site is production-ready on Railway preview; DNS cutover to myfamilycrafts.net is the remaining operator step. Craft operators get guided intake without exposing admin tooling.
Key highlights
- Production domain at myfamilycrafts.net with Railway preview parity
- Talk A9 guided intake for product and custom-order leads
- Journal timeline fed from Ace9 publish pipeline
- Shared lifestyle theme via @a9/ui myfamcrafts preset
