Custom Web Design

Your website is your company’s online identity. Just as you would want to ensure that your office or store makes a good first impression on customers in the physical world, you should be just as concerned with making a good impression on your customers in the online world. A website says a lot about a company. Sometimes customers judge how legitimate or successful a company is by its website. If you haven’t put in the effort to ensure that your website is as professional and up-to-date as possible, you could be negatively affecting your business’ reputation and losing out on potential customers.

It’s also important to have custom web design services so that your business can stand out from its competitors. Sure, there are cheaper options that allow you to build your own website quickly using templates. For some businesses, this can be an easy and cost-effective way of getting online. But for others, using pre-made templates could cause your site to end up looking just like someone else’s – potential even your competitors. Having a custom web design ensures that you and your brand are totally unique and can always be differentiated from others.

Yes. With each website we create, we install Google Analytics. Unlike other analytics software, Google Analytics provides deeper insight into the potential customers visiting your website. You’ll be able to view statistics on browser usage, average time spent on your site, what part of the world they’re coming from, what keywords or websites referred them to your site and much more. You can use these deeper analytics to determine patterns, find weak spots and create marketing campaigns focused on a particular demographic.

No problem. With the CMS we use to create your website, you can easily create additional pages yourself with just a few clicks. If you need us to create additional pages with fully optimized content for you, we’ll bill you at $75 per page.

We chose 8 as the standard number of pages for our web design packages because this is the number of pages we feel are needed to run a general website. We recommend you have at least the following pages to start with:

• Home
• About Us
• Services (or Products)
• Testimonials (or Case Studies)
• FAQ (or Help / Support)
• Contact Us
• Privacy Policy
• Terms

In reality, most sites need more than 8 pages once you account for confirmation messages, individual product pages and various pages of a shopping cart or sign-up process. But we think 8 pages is a standard amount that will fit the needs of most businesses. If you feel that you don’t need the full 8 pages, we suggest contacting us for a consultation so that you can ensure all aspects of your business are considered. After all, there’s more to a website than the front-facing pages that customers see.

If you end up needing more revisions than our affordable web design services include, you can simply request additional revisions our revision request form. Once your original project is complete, you’ll be billed at a rate of $47 per revision you request.
