Knoxville, TN Web Design Services

Our Knoxville 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 agency is separated into two teams, each working on either template or custom website design services.

1.) Template-Based Web Developments

Looking for an affordable website? Your Knoxville small business might be interested in a template site!

Rather than creating design mockups and building a custom template for your website, we can find and share several website templates that closely align with the look and feel you want.

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 Knoxville 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 Knoxville organization.

The starting cost for a custom website design is about $9,500, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. 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.

Picking a Platform for Your Knoxville, TN Website

The foundation of your Knoxville website is the content management system you choose for the design project. Our website designers and ecommerce web designers are well-versed in multiple platforms, but we provide our best web design services in WordPress. We also develop ecommerce sites in Shopify and WooCommerce.

1.) WordPress

WordPress is simply the most popular open-source website platform, with more than 40% market share throughout Knoxville and the greater Tennessee area.

We specialize in WordPress not just because it's the most popular CMS platform in Knoxville, but just because it's the best for a customized web development service. 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 website design firms and freelance web designers, making it possible to find a local Knoxville website designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

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

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce web designers 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 Knoxville companies with an existing WordPress website. When you like the look and feel of your content-based website, why spend time and money rebuilding it just to add ecommerce?
• We often recommend WooCommerce for Knoxville organizations who prefer open-source software. There are no monthly fees 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.
• If you're in an industry that's not supported by Shopify, try WooCommerce.

3.) Shopify

Shopify is the most popular SaaS ecommerce platform. To run an ecommerce website using Shopify you will likely be looking for a Shopify web developer in Knoxville.

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

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

• For Knoxville merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. Shopify allows you to run an ecommerce business in Knoxville without the hassle of hosting configurations or platform updates.
• We often recommend Shopify for Knoxville 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.
• We often recommend Shopify for Knoxville 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.
