No , all Salt Thread templates are sold exactly as shown. If you’d like a designer to customize a template for you, you can find trusted Showit designers here.
Some Salt Thread templates include a paid font, while others are built entirely with free to use fonts. If a paid font is used, Salt Thread will cover the cost of one web license for use within Showit only. Once you’ve purchased your template, we’ll handle the font purchase and send you the appropriate files or instructions to embed it in your site. If you’d like to use that font beyond the website like on social media, PDFs, or printed materials you’ll need to purchase a separate license directly from the foundry.

Content, prep, and what we need from you.
Salt Thread focuses exclusively on intentional website design. We do not offer copywriting services in house. However, for clients writing their own text, we provide a comprehensive Content Planner filled with prompts to help you shape every page with clarity and confidence. That said, we strongly recommend working with a professional copywriter. Most of our clients do and we maintain a carefully vetted list of talented writers who specialize in voice driven, strategy led website copy.
A professional copywriter can be a valuable partner if you want polished, conversion-focused wording for your site — but it’s not essential to get started. Our templates are designed so you can launch with your own words and refine them over time. If you decide to work with a copywriter later, they can help you elevate your brand voice and optimise for SEO, but you can absolutely begin with what you already have.
What it costs, and why.
Absolutely. A well built Showit template gives you the flexibility of a custom site without the custom design price tag. Salt Thread templates are designed with both form and function in mind pairing strategic page structure, built in SEO foundations, and intentional design with the creative freedom to make it entirely your own. You’re not just getting a layout you’re securing a professional framework that can evolve with your brand and support your business for years to come.
