Honolulu, HI Web Design Services

Our Honolulu 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 Honolulu 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.

Don't worry though, you'll be able to select your desired template for us to install on your development site.

From there, we'll customize the theme to match your color scheme and then set up your web pages.

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 developments, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Web Developments

As a custom web design company, we love to begin every Honolulu website 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.

After you approve the design mockup, our web development team will integrate it into a completely custom theme. There are many benefits to a custom template, including a simplified codebase that often has better site speed and usability since it was developed specifically for your Honolulu business.

The starting price for a custom website development is about $9,500, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For custom ecommerce web developments, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

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

Here are a few examples of website requests that might require service from Honolulu web support companies, including:

• Upgrading your website platform to the latest version.

Let's figure out what you want from your Honolulu website development project!

Picking a Platform for Your Honolulu, HI Website

The foundation of your Honolulu website is the content management system you choose for the design project. While our top web developers and ecommerce developers are well-versed in multiple platforms, we prefer to only provide website design services in WordPress, and ecommerce development services in Shopify or WooCommerce.

1.) WordPress

WordPress is simply the most popular open-source site platform, with more than 40% market share throughout Honolulu and the greater Hawaii area.

Our web design company chooses to specialize in WordPress not only because it is the most popular CMS platform in Honolulu, but also because it is simply the best overall. While there are dozens of content management systems to consider, we've found WordPress to be the most scalable platform for designing websites.

• WordPress has thousands of third-party plugins available that can provide additional functionality for your website.
• 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 web developers, making it possible to find a local Honolulu web designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

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

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

• If you need a custom template 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 Honolulu businesses with an existing WordPress website. If you are happy with the look and feel of your content-based website, why invest the time and money into redesigning that website just to add ecommerce?
• We often recommend WooCommerce for Honolulu small businesses who prefer open-source software. There are no monthly fees 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 hosted ecommerce platform. To run an ecommerce site using Shopify you will likely be looking for a Shopify web designer in Honolulu.

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

Here are some reasons our ecommerce web developers like Shopify:

• We often recommend Shopify for Honolulu merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce platform. Shopify allows you to run an ecommerce business in Honolulu without the hassle of hosting configurations or platform updates.
• We often recommend Shopify for Honolulu web companies without a lot of custom functionality requirements. It is often more expensive to develop custom functionality within Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees versus WooCommerce plugins that are more affordable.
• The best ecommerce platform for Honolulu 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 Honolulu, HI Web Designer

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

• Does the web designer outsource the website project? We do not outsource custom web development or ecommerce development projects for Honolulu small businesses. We have our own internal team of USA web developers.
• Do the website designers plan to create 301 redirects to help with SEO? We always create 301 redirects because we understand how important they are for Honolulu SEO.
• Does the website developer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before starting the website? We create design mockups for Honolulu companies that choose a custom web development service, and provide template samples for clients that choose a template-based web development service.
• Which CMS platform does your Honolulu website designer plan to use on your website project? Due to its ease of use, popularity, and scalability, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How quick is the turnaround time for your Honolulu web design service? It takes us about 2-3 months to complete custom web development projects, and 3-4 weeks to complete template websites. Ecommerce developments often take longer.
