Manhattan Web Design Services

Our Manhattan Website Services

We are a one-stop web design company with a large group of onsite web developers and ecommerce developers. Our website design team is broken into two groups, each specializing in either template or custom web development services.

1.) Template-Based Website Designs

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Manhattan company might be interested in a template website!

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.

Rest assured, you'll have the opportunity to select the theme you prefer, which we will then install on your development site.

Next, we will modify the template to use your color scheme and then add in 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 Manhattan web design 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 website development work. Best of all, those mockups can be revised until you're happy with the design concept and are ready to move forward.

Following your approval of the design mockup, our web development team will integrate it into a custom template. Opting for a custom theme can provide several benefits, including a simplified codebase that usually delivers enhanced site performance and usability, as it was tailored specifically for your Manhattan business.

The starting cost for a custom web development is around $9,500, and it can be finished in as little as 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 Manhattan 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 Manhattan web maintenance services:

• Updating your website platform.
• Keeping apps, themes and plugins updated.
• Adding new pages whenever you release something new.
• Freshening your blog with new content.
• Rearranging your Manhattan site's navigation menu.

Picking a Platform for Your Manhattan, NY Website

Your Manhattan website is likely powered by a content management system, or CMS. Even though our top web 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 New York and the rest of the country are powered by WordPress.

We specialize in WordPress not just because it's the most popular CMS platform in Manhattan, but just because it's the best for a customized web design service. 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 website through third-party WordPress plugins. Not everything has to be built from scratch!
• WordPress has a huge community of contributors that work together to improve its security, stability, and functionality.
• WordPress is popular among professional web development agencies and freelance web designers, making it possible to find a local Manhattan website developer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

We help Manhattan startups and ecommerce businesses build and launch awesome stores with WooCommerce.

These are some of the reasons our ecommerce developers like WooCommerce:

• We often recommend WooCommerce for Manhattan website design projects that need a custom theme with complex functionality, but are on a budget. This is mostly due to custom theme and functionality work being cheaper in WooCommerce.
• If your Manhattan 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 Manhattan who prefer open-source software use WooCommerce. You don't have to pay a monthly fee for WordPress or WooCommerce. If you want to use Shopify, you'll need a paid subscription for 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 designer in Manhattan.

Our Shopify developers have experience designing websites for online companies in and around New York.

Here are some reasons our ecommerce developers like Shopify:

• Manhattan merchants looking for a hosted ecommerce platform should check out Shopify. With Shopify, you can run an ecommerce business in Manhattan without worrying about hosting setups or platform updates.
• When Manhattan web companies don't need a lot of custom functionality, we often recommend Shopify. It's typically more expensive to develop custom functionality in Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees that really add up, in comparison to the less expensive WordPress plugin options.
• The best ecommerce platform for Manhattan organizations 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 Manhattan, NY Web Designer

You should ask a few questions of your prospective Manhattan website development or ecommerce web development company before starting a project. Here are 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 site project? Because we've got our own team of USA website designers and ecommerce website designers, we don't outsource.
• Will the website developers create 301 redirects to help search rankings? We are careful when it comes to broken URLs, so we plan to implement 301 redirects during any Manhattan website redesign project.
• Does the website designer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before building the site? We always start with a design mockup for Manhattan custom web design projects to ensure everyone understands the vision for the website. However, if you choose a theme-based web design service we will instead show you template samples before we begin.
• Which CMS platform does your Manhattan web 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 can your Manhattan web design team turn things around? We typically complete custom web development projects in 2-3 months, and template website projects in 3-4 weeks. Ecommerce website projects typically take longer to finish.
• Does the web design company provide original solutions? As a full-service website design firm, we enjoy a design or functionality challenge! Simply reach out to set up a phone call to discuss your needs!
