Fargo, ND Web Design Services

Our Fargo Web Services

We are a complete web design company with a large staff of internal website developers and ecommerce web developers. Our website design team is broken into two groups, each specializing in either template or custom web development services.

1.) Template-Based Web Designs

Looking for a low-cost website? Your Fargo organization might be interested in a template website!

Instead of creating design mockups and developing your website 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.

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

The starting price for a template-based website design is $3,750, and it can be completed in as little as a few weeks. For template-based ecommerce website developments, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Web Designs

As a custom website development agency, we like to start every Fargo website design service from scratch.

Our team can create tailor-made mockups that adhere to your brand's unique specifications, providing a preview of your website's aesthetics before our web developers begin their work. Best of all, those mockups can be revised until you're happy with the design concept and are ready to move forward.

Once you've given your approval for the design mockup, our web development team will merge it into a custom template. There are many benefits to a custom theme, including a simplified codebase that often has better page performance and usability since it was developed specifically for your Fargo small business.

The starting cost for a custom web design is about $9,500, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For custom ecommerce website developments, the price 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 view website maintenance to be a reactive support service that provides your Fargo organization access to a website developer or ecommerce website designer who can solve nearly any website problem you have.

Here are some examples of website requests that Fargo website support firms might help with:

• Making sure your website's platform is up to date.
• Updating apps, themes, and plugins.
• Adding new web pages as you release new products or services.
• Staying fresh with new blog content.

Picking a Platform for Your Fargo, ND Website

A content management system, or CMS, is what powers your Fargo website. Even though our top website developers and ecommerce web developers are well-versed in multiple platforms, we only use WordPress for new content-based website projects. For ecommerce websites we use Shopify or WooCommerce.

1.) WordPress

With more than 40% market share in North Dakota and the country, WordPress is simply the most popular open-source website platform.

Our web design company chooses to specialize in WordPress not only because it is the most popular CMS platform in Fargo, 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 site through third-party WordPress plugins. Not everything has to be built from scratch!
• WordPress has a large community of contributors helping to improve the platform's functionality, stability, and security.
• WordPress is popular among professional web design companies and freelance website developers, making it possible to find a local Fargo web designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

We've helped startups and existing ecommerce companies develop great WooCommerce stores in Fargo or other parts of United States.

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

• If you need a custom theme with complex functionality, but have a limited budget, we often recommend WooCommerce. This is mostly due to custom theme and functionality work being cheaper in WooCommerce.
• We often recommend WooCommerce for Fargo businesses with an existing WordPress website. It doesn't make sense to spend a lot of time and money remaking your content-based website just to add ecommerce.
• WooCommerce is a good open-source option for Fargo organizations. You don't have to pay a monthly fee to use WordPress or WooCommerce. Alternatively, Shopify has monthly fees to use the platform and their apps are often more expensive than WordPress or WooCommerce plugins.
• WooCommerce is great if you're in an industry that's not accepted by Shopify.

3.) Shopify

Shopify is the most popular SaaS ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce website in Fargo, you'll probably need a Shopify web developer.

Our Shopify website development team has experience designing websites for online stores around North Dakota within the Shopify platform.

Here are some reasons our ecommerce website designers like Shopify:

• Fargo merchants looking for a hosted ecommerce platform should check out Shopify. With Shopify, you don't have to worry about hosting configuration or platform updates.
• We often recommend Shopify for Fargo web companies without a lot of custom functionality requirements. It's typically more expensive to develop custom functionality in Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees versus WooCommerce plugins that are more affordable.
• The best ecommerce platform for Fargo businesses 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 Fargo, ND Web Developer

You should ask your prospective Fargo web design or ecommerce web development firm several questions before you get started. Here are some of the most common ones we get asked before starting a custom web design or ecommerce website design project:

• Does the website developer outsource the project? Because we have our own internal team of USA web designers, we don't outsource custom website design or ecommerce web design projects to other companies.
• 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 Fargo website redesign project.
• Does the web developer plan to create a mockup, or provide template samples, before building the site? We create design mockups for Fargo clients that choose a custom website development service, and provide template samples for businesses that choose a template-based web development service.
• Which CMS platform does your Fargo web designer plan to use on your website project? Because of its ease of use, popularity, and scalability, we prefer WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How fast is your Fargo website development service? We typically finish custom website design projects in 2-3 months, and template website projects in 3-4 weeks. Ecommerce website projects typically take longer to finish.
• Does the web development agency have examples of innovative solutions? As a complete web design company, we love a challenge! Let us know what you have for unique needs and we will be happy to assist!
