For over 75 years, HistoryMaker Homes has focused on two primary objectives: building high-quality homes and fostering family-centered communities. As Texas’ longest-running homebuilder, they know a house is more than just walls and a roof; it’s about building a future.
Now, HistoryMaker Homes has teamed up with Graphic Language to launch a new website designed for today’s homebuyers. The new HistoryMaker.com is easy to use, visually appealing, and full of features that make home shopping more straightforward and more enjoyable.
Blending Tradition and Technology
HistoryMaker Homes values family but isn’t stuck in the past. Their updated website brings their commitment to service and community into the digital world. We ensured the new website retained its warm, approachable feel while incorporating a modern look, smart search options, and the kind of performance buyers expect. The result is a beautiful, fast website that’s perfect for tech-savvy homebuyers who want answers right away.
What’s New at HistoryMaker.com
Better Regional Search: Localized, Personalized Discovery
People want more than square footage. They want homes that fit their lives. The new website has regional landing pages with search filters for school districts, commute times, neighborhood amenities, and more. This makes it easy for shoppers to find homes that check all their boxes.
Global Search: A Smarter Way to Explore
The global search bar allows visitors to search for anything, including floor plans, move-in-ready homes, specific communities, or general information. Results appear instantly and are organized by type, making it easier to find what you need quickly. The search also autocompletes as you type and shows helpful suggestions.
Strategic Lead Capture & Scheduling
Clear calls-to-action, like a header call button and options to Schedule a Tour or Sign Up for Updates, make it easy for buyers to connect. With Calendly integration, prospects can book tours instantly, and every lead is automatically captured to avoid missed opportunities.
Promotions at Every Level: Empowering Sales with Visual Impact
The website features a powerful promotions system, allowing HistoryMaker to highlight special offers at every level, from company-wide deals to community- or plan-specific discounts. Promotions appear as visual cards, banners, and even on a dedicated promotions page, so buyers never miss a deal. It’s a handy way for shoppers to see savings and for sales teams to manage offers easily.
Interactive SPOT™ Maps with Amenities Integration
Shoppers want to know about more than the houses; they care about what’s nearby, too. The new SPOT Maps feature allows users to view neighborhoods and see schools, restaurants, parks, healthcare facilities, shops, and more, all in one place. This provides a more comprehensive view of the full lifestyle that each community offers.
Fast and Reliable Performance: Built for the Modern Web
A slow website can ruin the experience, so we installed a top-notch caching system that keeps load times fast, even when pulling real-time info from other databases. That means buyers can see current home listings and prices right away, without waiting.
Improved smartEDIT CMS: Content Management Made Easy
Behind the scenes, HistoryMaker’s team can now update the website quickly and easily with our upgraded smartEDIT CMS. The new tools include:
- A syndication panel for managing and sharing home listings
- Quick-edit features for updating images, alt text, and content instantly
- A better promotions panel for organizing and timing special offers
These upgrades mean the HistoryMaker team no longer has to rely on outside help to keep the website fresh and accurate.
Deep Data Integrations: Connecting the Front-End to the Back-End
Direct integration with HistoryMaker’s bespoke data warehouse to deliver the latest pricing, inventory, plan, and community data to home shoppers.
A Modern Homebuying Experience That Reflects a Legacy of Excellence
This new website is more than just an upgrade. It’s a reflection of HistoryMaker Homes’ commitment to meeting buyers’ needs, both online and in person. With a friendly design, smart features, and the speed today’s buyers expect, the new HistoryMaker website gives house hunters a great experience and brings HistoryMaker’s tradition into the digital age.
Home shopping has changed. Buyers expect transparency, speed, and digital convenience. HistoryMaker is embracing that future while staying true to the trust they’ve built over decades.
Explore the new website at HistoryMaker.com to discover the next generation of homebuying, designed for families and powered by innovation.
