Hilton Head Island, SC Web Design Services

Our Hilton Head Island Web Services

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

1.) Template-Based Website Developments

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Hilton Head Island small business 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 site 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 cost for a template-based web design is $3,750, and it can be completed in as little as a few weeks. For template-based ecommerce website developments, the price and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Web Designs

As a custom website design firm, we like to start every Hilton Head Island web 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 designers begin their work. In addition, these mockups can undergo edits until you're pleased with the design concept, enabling you to advance with certainty.

Once you've given your approval for the design mockup, our web development team will merge it into a custom template. A custom theme offers numerous advantages, such as a streamlined codebase that typically results in improved page speed and usability, since it was created exclusively for your Hilton Head Island small business.

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

Picking a Platform for Your Hilton Head Island, SC Website

The foundation of your Hilton Head Island website is the content management system you choose for the design project. 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 South Carolina and the rest of the country are powered by WordPress.

Our web design company chooses to specialize in WordPress not only because it is the most popular CMS platform in Hilton Head Island, 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 Hilton Head Island web designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

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

Here's why our ecommerce developers love WooCommerce:

• We often recommend WooCommerce for Hilton Head Island 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.
• If your Hilton Head Island 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?
• Most companies in Hilton Head Island who prefer open-source software use WooCommerce. 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.
• WooCommerce is great if you're in an industry that's 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 searching for a Shopify web designer in Hilton Head Island.

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

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

• For Hilton Head Island merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. With Shopify, you can run an ecommerce business in Hilton Head Island without worrying about hosting setups or platform updates.
• We often recommend Shopify for Hilton Head Island web companies without a lot of custom functionality requirements. The cost of developing custom functionality within Shopify is often higher than in WordPress. Additionally, you'll find getting Shopify apps often require monthly subscriptions versus one-time purchases for WordPress plugins.
• Shopify is a great option for Hilton Head Island ecommerce businesses that need fast delivery times for marketing and development. It is often faster with Shopify to test out new products, themes, apps, or ideas.

Questions to Ask a Hilton Head Island, SC Web Designer

There are several important questions to ask your prospective Hilton Head Island 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? Because we've got our own team of USA web developers and ecommerce web designers, we don't outsource.
• 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 Hilton Head Island web redesign project.
• Does the web designer plan to create a mockup, or provide template samples, before building the site? We create design mockups for Hilton Head Island clients that choose a custom web design service, and provide template samples for customers that choose a theme-based web design service.
• Which CMS platform does your Hilton Head Island web designer plan to use on your website project? Because of its popularity, scalability, and ease of use, we prefer WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How fast is your Hilton Head Island web design service? Most of our custom website design projects are ready in two to three months, but template websites are closer to three to four weeks. Ecommerce projects usually require more time.
• Does the web development agency have examples of innovative solutions? As a complete web design company, we like unique design and functionality requirements! Just let us know what you have in mind and we will be happy to help!
