Billings, MT Web Design Services

Our Billings Web Services

We are a full-service website design firm with a large team of in-house website designers and ecommerce website designers. Our website development team is separated into two groups, each focusing on either template or custom web design services.

1.) Template-Based Website Designs

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

Instead of creating design mockups and developing your site in a custom template, 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 template you prefer, which we will then install on your development site.

We will then tailor the theme to align with your color scheme and load in your web content.

The starting cost for a template web development is around $3,750, and it can be finished in as little as a few weeks. For template ecommerce developments, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Web Developments

As a custom web design company, we love to begin every Billings website 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 web development work. Best of all, those mockups can be revised until you're happy with the design concept and are ready to move forward.

After you approve the design mockup, our website development team will integrate it into a completely custom theme. 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 Billings organization.

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

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

We view web maintenance to be a reactive support service that provides your Billings business access to a website developer or ecommerce website developer who can solve nearly any website problem you have.

Here are some examples of website requests that Billings website maintenance agencies might help with:

• Making sure your website's platform is up to date.
• Updating apps, themes, and plugins.

Set Goals for Your Billings, MT Website

Before proceeding with the selection of a template or custom web design company for your Billings business, it is important to understand what the goals are for your site project. The most common goals we've seen for Billings web design and ecommerce website design projects include:

1. To create a website or online store for a new business in Billings.
2. To redesign an existing website or storefront with a modern, professional look and feel.
3. To improve UX, reduce bounce rates, and/or improve conversion rates.

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

In addition to designing Billings-area websites, our firm also provides web design services to those in Bozeman, and Missoula.

Picking a Platform for Your Billings, MT Website

The foundation of your Billings website is the content management system you choose for the design project. While our top web designers and ecommerce web developers are well-versed in multiple platforms, we prefer to only provide web 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 Billings and the greater Montana area.

Our website design firm chooses to specialize in WordPress not only because it is the most popular CMS platform in Billings, 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 functionality to your website through third-party WordPress plugins. Not everything has to be built from scratch!
• WordPress has a huge community of contributors that work together to improve its security, stability, and functionality.
• WordPress is popular among professional website design firms and freelance web designers, making it possible to find a local Billings website designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

Our WooCommerce website development team has experience helping startups and existing ecommerce businesses in Billings build amazing stores with WooCommerce.

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

• We often recommend WooCommerce for Billings website design projects that require a custom designed theme with complex functionality, but are working on a limited budget. This is mostly due to custom theme and functionality work being cheaper in WooCommerce.
• We often recommend WooCommerce for Billings businesses with an existing WordPress website. It doesn't make sense to spend a lot of time and money redesigning your content-based website just to add ecommerce.
• WooCommerce is a great open-source option for Billings companies. You don't have to pay a monthly fee to use WordPress or WooCommerce. As an alternative, Shopify has monthly fees and their apps are often more expensive than WooCommerce or WordPress plugins.
• If you're in an industry that's not supported by Shopify, try WooCommerce.

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 Billings.

Our Shopify web development team has experience designing websites for online stores around Montana within the Shopify platform.

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce web developers often recommend Shopify:

• We often recommend Shopify for Billings merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce platform. Shopify allows you to run an ecommerce business in Billings without the hassle of hosting configurations or platform updates.
• When Billings web companies don't need a lot of custom functionality, we often recommend Shopify. It's typically more expensive to develop custom functionality in Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, you'll find getting Shopify apps often require monthly subscriptions versus one-time purchases for WordPress plugins.
• The best ecommerce platform for Billings organizations that rely heavily on fast delivery 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 Billings, MT Web Designer

There are several important questions to ask your prospective Billings website development or ecommerce web development company before proceeding with your project. Let's go over some of the most common ones we get asked before starting a custom web development or ecommerce development project:

• Does the website designer outsource the project? We do not outsource custom web development or ecommerce web design projects for Billings 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 Billings website makeover project.
• Will the web developer make a mockup, or provide theme samples, before starting the site? We always start with a design mockup for Billings custom website design projects to ensure everyone understands the vision for the site. However, if you choose a template-based website design service we will instead show you template samples before we begin.
• Which CMS platform does your Billings website developer plan to use on your website project? Due to its scalability, ease of use, and popularity, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How fast can your Billings 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 have experience with 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!
