From Template to Tailored: How Michael Shower Made Waves with His Real Estate Website

Let’s be real—when it comes to real estate, first impressions can make or break a deal. And where’s the first place most clients check you out? Yep, your website. For luxury real estate agent Michael Shower, it was a problem: his website blended into the sea of cookie-cutter designs. Spoiler alert—he wasn’t having it.

Here’s how Michael ditched the ordinary, broke the mold, and created a website that’s as legendary as his Hawaii real estate career.


Why Michael Knew It Was Time for a Change

Picture this: Michael was paying $200 a month to a popular out-of-the-box real estate website provider. Over a year, that’s $2,400 (ouch). And for what? A generic site that 45,000 other agents could basically clone.

Michael’s site wasn’t bad, but it didn’t feel like him. It didn’t tell his story or showcase his one-of-a-kind lifestyle. He wanted:

  • To stop the endless money drain.

  • A site that screamed "Michael Shower," not "real estate template #348".

  • A design as dynamic as his life—a surfer, family man, and former stuntman breaking records in the Hawaii luxury market.

That’s when he found WebSight Design and the real fun began.


A Website That Says, ‘This Is Who I Am’

Michael’s career is nothing short of legendary, with over $350M in sales and standout deals like a $12M property on O‘ahu’s North Shore cementing his status as one of Hawaii’s top agents. But for Michael, success isn’t just about numbers—it’s about community. He wanted his new website to capture his passion for O‘ahu’s vibrant lifestyle, his deep-rooted community involvement, and his entertainment industry connections. Rather than focusing solely on sales, Michael aimed to showcase his personality, his connection to the community, and the unique energy he brings to real estate. His old site didn’t reflect that, and he knew it was time for a change.

Enter WebSight Design. Together, we created a site that didn’t just look good—it told Michael’s story.

Here’s what he got:

  • A Custom Look, No Templates Allowed: Think bold, vibrant, and uniquely Hawaiian. It’s not just a website—it’s a reflection of his brand.

  • No More Subscription Fees: Michael owns his website code outright. That’s thousands of dollars back in his pocket every year.

  • Standout Online Presence: His new site is as eye-catching as the ocean views he sells. Clients? Hooked.

A templated site can only take you so far. Michael’s story proves that a custom website isn’t just an investment, it’s a game-changer. Here’s why:

  • Save Money: Say goodbye to monthly subscription fees and hello to ownership.

  • Stand Out: Show clients exactly what makes you special: you.

  • Grow Your Business: A tailor-made site attracts the right clients—no more blending in with the crowd.
