Lakewood Web Design Services

Our Lakewood Web Services

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

1.) Template-Based Web Developments

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Lakewood small business 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.

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

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

The starting price for a template web design is around $3,750, and it can be finished in as little as a few weeks. For template ecommerce website designs, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Web Designs

As a custom website design firm, we love to begin every Lakewood 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 website designers begin their work. 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. A custom theme offers numerous advantages, such as a streamlined codebase that typically results in improved site performance and usability, since it was created exclusively for your Lakewood 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 Lakewood 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 require service from Lakewood web maintenance agencies, including:

• Upgrading your website platform to the latest version.
• Updating apps, themes, and plugins.
• Adding new web pages as you release new information.
• Freshening your blog with new content.
• Rearranging your Lakewood website's navigation menu.
• Improve your site speed to pass Google Core Web Vitals.
• Backing up your website's files and databases.
• Making your website look and feel better.
• Troubleshooting Google Search Console coverage errors.
• Enhancing technical search engine optimization with structured data, open graph tags, etc.
• Providing solutions to other website concerns.
• Importing / exporting ecommerce product data.

Picking a Platform for Your Lakewood, CO Website

A content management system, or CMS, is what powers your Lakewood website. Even though our top website designers and ecommerce website 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

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

WordPress is the most popular CMS in Lakewood, but it's also the best in terms of overall performance and scalability of a customized website design. 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 huge community of contributors that work together to improve its security, stability, and functionality.
• WordPress is popular among professional web design companies and freelance web developers, making it possible to find a local Lakewood web designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

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

Here's why our ecommerce web designers love 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 Lakewood company already has a WordPress site, we often recommend WooCommerce. 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 Lakewood organizations who prefer open-source software. You don't have to pay a monthly fee 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. If you want to run an ecommerce website using Shopify, you'll need a Shopify website designer in Lakewood.

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

Here are some reasons our ecommerce web designers like Shopify:

• For Lakewood merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. With Shopify, you can run an ecommerce business in Lakewood without worrying about hosting setups or platform updates.
• We often recommend Shopify for Lakewood web companies without a lot of custom functionality requirements. It is often more expensive to develop custom functionality within Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, you'll find getting Shopify apps often require monthly subscriptions versus one-time purchases for WordPress plugins.
• The best ecommerce platform for Lakewood small 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 Lakewood, CO Web Designer

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

• Does the website designer outsource the website project? Because we've got our own team of USA website developers and ecommerce web developers, we don't outsource.
• Will the website designers make 301 redirects to help preserve search placements? We always create 301 redirects because we understand how important they are for Lakewood SEO.
• Does the website designer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before starting the website? We always start with a design mockup for Lakewood custom web design projects to ensure everyone understands the vision for the website. However, if you choose a template-based web design service we will instead show you template samples before we begin.
• Which CMS platform does your Lakewood website designer plan to use on your website project? Due to its popularity, scalability, and ease of use, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How fast is your Lakewood web design service? It takes us about 2-3 months to finish custom website development projects, and 3-4 weeks to finish template websites. Ecommerce developments often take longer.
• Does the website design firm have examples of creative solutions? As a comprehensive web development agency, we like unique design and functionality requirements! Just let us know what you have in mind and we will be happy to help!
