Fort Lauderdale Web Design Services

Our Fort Lauderdale 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 separated into two groups, each focusing on either template or custom web development services.

1.) Template-Based Web Designs

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Fort Lauderdale organization might be interested in a template website!

Rather than designing mockups and developing a custom theme for your website, we can search for a few website templates that match the look and feel you want in your next website or online store.

But don't worry - you'll have the option to choose your favorite theme for us to 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-based web development is $3,750, and it can be completed in as little as a few weeks. For template-based ecommerce web designs, the price and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Website Developments

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

This approach allows our team to design custom mockups specific to your branding requirements. You'll appreciate seeing the look and feel of your future website before our website designers start building the site. These mockups can be altered to your satisfaction, allowing you to finalize the design concept and proceed with confidence.

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 site performance and usability since it was developed specifically for your Fort Lauderdale business.

The starting cost for a custom web development is about $9,500, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For custom ecommerce 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 support services.

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

Here are a few examples of website requests that might need Fort Lauderdale web maintenance services:

• 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.
• Writing new blog content to help you stay fresh.
• Rearranging your Fort Lauderdale site's navigation menu.

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

Picking a Platform for Your Fort Lauderdale, FL Website

A content management system, or CMS, is what powers your Fort Lauderdale website. While our top web designers and ecommerce website 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

More than 40% of websites in Florida and the rest of the country are powered by WordPress.

WordPress is the most popular CMS in Fort Lauderdale, but it's also the best in terms of overall performance and scalability of a customized web design. Although there are dozens of content management systems to choose from, we've found WordPress to be the most scalable for designing websites.

• You can add functionality to your website 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.
• With WordPress, you should easily be able to find a local Fort Lauderdale web developer to help you with your project.

2.) WooCommerce

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

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce 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.
• If your Fort Lauderdale small business already has a WordPress site, we often recommend WooCommerce. When you like the look and feel of your content-based website, why spend time and money redesigning it just to add ecommerce?
• WooCommerce is a great open-source option for Fort Lauderdale small businesses. 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.
• We also recommend WooCommerce for those in an industry not accepted by Shopify.

3.) Shopify

Shopify is the most popular SaaS ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce site using Shopify, you'll need a Shopify website developer in Fort Lauderdale.

We can design a website for your online business in or around Florida that runs on the Shopify platform.

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

• Fort Lauderdale merchants searching for a hosted ecommerce platform should check out Shopify. With Shopify, you can run an ecommerce business in Fort Lauderdale without worrying about hosting setups or platform updates.
• We often recommend Shopify for Fort Lauderdale web companies without a lot of custom functionality requirements. 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.
• We often recommend Shopify for Fort Lauderdale ecommerce businesses that rely heavily on fast delivery times for development and marketing initiatives. It is often faster with Shopify to test out new products, themes, apps, or ideas.

Questions to Ask a Fort Lauderdale, FL Web Developer

You should ask your prospective Fort Lauderdale web design or ecommerce web development firm several questions before you get started. Let's go over 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've got our own team of USA web designers and ecommerce website developers, we don't outsource.
• Will the web developers make 301 redirects to help preserve search placements? For any Fort Lauderdale website design project that will replace an existing website, we plan out 301 redirects early in the project.
• Will the web developer make a mockup, or provide template samples, before starting the site? We create design mockups for Fort Lauderdale clients that choose a custom website development service, and provide template samples for businesses that choose a template-based web development service.
• What CMS platforms is your Fort Lauderdale web designer experienced in? Due to its scalability, ease of use, and popularity, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How quick is the delivery time for your Fort Lauderdale website development service? It takes us about 2-3 months to finish custom website design projects, and 3-4 weeks to finish template websites. Ecommerce developments often take longer.
• Does the web design company have examples of original solutions? As a full-service website design firm, we love a challenge! Let us know what you have for unique needs and we will be happy to assist!
