Introduction
Dr Marcus is an international brand that makes and sells car air fresheners and car care products.
The company asked our team to design and build a new website. It had to be scalable, multilingual, SEO-optimized and responsive, and ready to support e-commerce sales and B2B partners in the future.
The website was also meant to showcase the full product portfolio and the brand's story, and to educate customers through blog articles.
CHALLENGE
The aim was to create a website that would:
- Capture the character of an innovative, elegant brand.
- Make products and content easy to reach and organize information better.
- Support marketing and customer acquisition.
- Be responsive and perform well on all devices.
- Meet SEO and GDPR requirements and leave room for future growth.
The challenge was to build a large website with many sections, subpages and links between them that would still be intuitive and user-friendly, and easy for the client's team to edit.
SOLUTION
The Boring Owl team was responsible for designing and implementing the technology and infrastructure:
- Frontend: Next.js enables SSR/ISR, faster page loads through prerendered content, better SEO thanks to server-side rendering and easy integration with the Strapi API.
- Backend: Strapi CMS manages the content of every page on the site and makes it easy to add new modules and content.
- Database: PostgreSQL, a flexible and secure database for the CMS.
- Hosting and infrastructure: Coolify + AWS CloudFront for fast performance worldwide and strong security.
- Third-party integrations:
- Google Analytics and GTM: Tracking traffic and user activity on the site.

- Mailchimp: An email platform for marketing automation.
- Payment systems: for a future online store.
