Can you create a store and display nothing but collections?

So create a store, just add text to the "About" page, add collections and not need to show your store name when someone clicks on the menu item that says Stores?  

Thank you in advance for any direction you can lend. I have friend starting up a store on Z and they asked me this question which I did not know the answer to

Thank you so much for your help and guidance. I don't think my friend has any interest in branding and such so just getting the product to be crawled in Google searches is his initial goal. Personally I think once he realizes that the products would not have a good ranking in the Z marketplace he may change how he views all this... I think he may be just trying to take shortcuts?

Yes, I have done that.

But the problem with it is that the store will not show up in the market place until you have the right ranking. And to get a good ranking you need to have at least 10 store products and you need to share them. Here is a screenshot of what is needed to get a good store ranking so it will show up in the marketplace.

As far as showing the store name. I'm not quite sure what info you want here.  But we can make a store private, so on the customer side it will not show up. Go to the Store's Management End. Choose Settings. Choose Store Information. Tick the box "Make this store private(what's this?)"

Sorry about the large gap between the images. I haven't inserted images before and obviously have some things to learn.
