Auburn Web Design Services

Our Auburn Web Services

We are a one-stop website design firm with a large group of onsite web designers and ecommerce web developers. Our web development team is separated into two groups, each focusing on either template or custom web design services.

1.) Template-Based Web Designs

Looking for an affordable website? Your Auburn business might be interested in a template website!

Instead of creating design mockups and developing your website in a custom theme, we can hand-pick several website templates to share with you that closely match your desired look and feel.

Rest assured, you'll have the opportunity to select the theme you prefer, which we will then install on your development site.

Next, we will modify the template to use your color scheme and then add in your web pages.

The starting price for a templated website development is about $3,750, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For templated ecommerce web developments, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Web Developments

As a custom web design company, we love to begin every Auburn web development service from scratch.

By utilizing this approach, our team can produce customized mockups that align with your brand guidelines. This will give you a glimpse into your website's look and feel prior to the start of website development work. Best of all, those mockups can be revised until you're happy with the design concept and are ready to move forward.

Following your approval of the design mockup, our web development team will integrate it into a custom template. There are many benefits to a custom theme, including a simplified codebase that often has better website speed and usability since it was developed specifically for your Auburn organization.

The starting price for a custom website design is $9,500, and it can be completed in as little as a few months. For custom ecommerce website developments, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

3.) Website Maintenance

After the launch of your website, or if you have one, you might be interested in web maintenance services.

We think of website maintenance as a reactive support service where we provide your Auburn business access to a website developer or ecommerce web designer who can fix just about any problem.

Here are some examples of website requests that Auburn website maintenance firms might help with:

• Upgrading your website platform to the latest version.
• Keeping apps, themes and plugins updated.
• Adding new web pages as you release new information.
• Writing new blog content to help you stay fresh.
• Rearranging your Auburn site's navigation menu.
• Improving website performance to help you pass Google Core Web Vitals.
• Taking backups of your website's files and databases.
• Changing the look and feel of your website.
• Troubleshooting Google Search Console coverage problems.
• Enhancing technical search engine optimization with structured data, open graph tags, etc.
• Investigating and solving any other website issue.
• Importing / exporting ecommerce product data.

Set Goals for Your Auburn, WA Website

It's important to understand what your goals are before picking a template or custom website design firm for your Auburn business. The most common goals we've seen for Auburn website design and ecommerce web design projects include:

1. To create a website or online store for a new Auburn small business.
2. To redo an existing website or storefront with a modern, professional look and feel.
3. To improve user experience, reduce bounce rates, and/or improve conversion rates.
4. To improve the website's speed and responsiveness.
5. To comply with ADA, WCAG, and other published guidelines that set the standards for website accessibility.
6. To improve lead generation through design improvements.
7. To get more online sales from their ecommerce website.

Let's figure out what you want from your Auburn website design project!

In addition to designing Auburn-area websites, our firm also provides web design services to those in Bellingham, Everett, Kennewick, Kent, Kirkland, Redmond, Renton, Seattle, Spokane, Spokane Valley, Tacoma, and Vancouver.

Picking a Platform for Your Auburn, WA Website

Your Auburn site is likely powered by a content management system, or CMS. While our top website designers and ecommerce website designers are well-versed in multiple platforms, we prefer to only provide website development services in WordPress, and ecommerce development services in Shopify or WooCommerce.

1.) WordPress

WordPress is simply the most popular open-source website platform, with more than 40% market share throughout Auburn and the greater Washington area.

Our website design firm chooses to specialize in WordPress not only because it is the most popular CMS platform in Auburn, but also because it is simply the best overall. The following reasons make WordPress the most scalable platform for designing websites, despite the fact there are alternatives for your project.

• You can add new functionality to your website through third-party WordPress plugins. Not everything has to be built from scratch!
• There's a huge community of WordPress contributors helping to make the platform more stable, secure, and scalable.
• WordPress has a large following among expert website design firms and freelance website designers, helping ensure you can find a local Auburn web designer to help you.

2.) WooCommerce

We help Auburn startups and ecommerce businesses build and launch awesome stores with WooCommerce.

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce web designers tend to recommend WooCommerce:

• We often recommend WooCommerce for Auburn web design projects that require a custom designed template with complex functionality, but are working on a limited budget. This is mostly due to custom theme and functionality work being cheaper in WooCommerce.
• If your Auburn organization already has a WordPress site, we often recommend WooCommerce. It doesn't make sense to spend a lot of time and money redoing your content-based website just to add ecommerce.
• We often recommend WooCommerce for Auburn companies who prefer open-source software. You don't have to pay a monthly fee for WordPress or WooCommerce. As an alternative, Shopify has monthly fees and their apps are often more expensive than WooCommerce or WordPress plugins.
• We also recommend WooCommerce for those in an industry not accepted by Shopify.

3.) Shopify

Shopify is the most popular web-based ecommerce platform. To run an ecommerce website using Shopify you will likely be looking for a Shopify web designer in Auburn.

Our Shopify developers have experience designing websites for online companies in and around Washington.

Here are some reasons our ecommerce developers like Shopify:

• For Auburn merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. Shopify allows you to run an ecommerce business in Auburn without the hassle of hosting configurations or platform updates.
• When Auburn web companies don't need a lot of custom functionality, we often recommend Shopify. The cost of developing custom functionality within Shopify is often higher than in WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees versus WooCommerce plugins that are more affordable.
• The best ecommerce platform for Auburn small businesses that rely heavily on fast turnaround times for development and marketing is Shopify. It is often faster with Shopify to test out new products, themes, apps, or ideas.

Questions to Ask a Auburn, WA Website Designer

You should ask a few questions of your prospective Auburn website design or ecommerce development agency before starting a project. Let's go over some of the most common ones we get asked before starting a custom website design or ecommerce web design project:

• Does the web designer outsource the website project? We do not outsource custom web development or ecommerce web design projects for Auburn small businesses. We have our own internal team of USA website developers.
• Do the web designers plan to create 301 redirects to help with SEO? We are careful when it comes to broken URLs, so we plan to implement 301 redirects during any Auburn website makeover project.
• Does the web developer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before building the site? We find it is easier to create a design mockup for Auburn website projects to help everyone understand the design direction before the site build gets too far along. However, that is only possible if you choose a custom website design service. If you opt for a template-based website, we'll provide several template samples for you to review instead.
• What platform does your Auburn web designer use? Due to its scalability, ease of use, and popularity, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How fast can your Auburn website design team turn things around? We typically finish custom web design projects in 2-3 months, and template website projects in 3-4 weeks. Ecommerce website projects typically take longer to finish.
• Does the website design firm provide creative solutions? As a comprehensive web development agency, we love a challenge! Let us know what you have for unique needs and we will be happy to assist!
