Milwaukee Web Design Services

Our Milwaukee 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 separated into two groups, each focusing on either template or custom web development services.

1.) Template-Based Website Designs

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Milwaukee 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.

Don't worry though, you'll be able to select your desired theme for us to 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 templated web design is about $3,750, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For templated 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 Milwaukee 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.

Once you've given your approval for the design mockup, our web development team will merge 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 Milwaukee business.

The starting cost for a custom web development is $9,500, and it can be completed in as little as a few months. 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 Milwaukee 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 Milwaukee web maintenance services:

• Upgrading your website platform to the latest version.
• Keeping apps, themes and plugins updated.
• Adding new web pages as you release new information.
• Freshening your blog with new content.
• Rearranging your Milwaukee site's navigation menu.
• Making your pages faster to pass Google Core Web Vitals.
• Taking backups of your website's files and databases.
• Making your website look and feel better.
• Troubleshooting Google Search Console coverage concerns.
• Improving technical search engine optimization by adding structured data, open graph tags, etc.
• Investigating and solving any other website issue.
• Importing / exporting ecommerce product data.

Picking a Platform for Your Milwaukee, WI Website

Your Milwaukee website is likely powered by a content management system, or CMS. While our top website developers and ecommerce web 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

More than 40% of websites in Wisconsin 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 Milwaukee, 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.

• You can add new functionality to your website through third-party WordPress plugins. Not everything has to be built from scratch!
• There's a huge community of WordPress contributors helping to make the platform more stable, secure, and scalable.
• WordPress is popular among professional website design firms and freelance website designers, making it possible to find a local Milwaukee web designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

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

These are some of the reasons our ecommerce web designers like WooCommerce:

• We often recommend WooCommerce for Milwaukee web design projects that require a custom designed template 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 Milwaukee organization 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 redoing it just to add ecommerce?
• We often recommend WooCommerce for Milwaukee small businesses who prefer open-source software. 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.
• 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 searching for a Shopify website developer in Milwaukee.

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

Here are some reasons our ecommerce developers like Shopify:

• We often recommend Shopify for Milwaukee merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce platform. Shopify allows you to run an ecommerce business in Milwaukee without the hassle of hosting configurations or platform updates.
• When Milwaukee 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 versus WooCommerce plugins that are more affordable.
• The best ecommerce platform for Milwaukee 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 Milwaukee, WI Website Designer

You should ask a few questions of your prospective Milwaukee website design or ecommerce development agency before starting a project. Let's go over some of the most common ones we get asked before starting a custom website design or ecommerce web design project:

• Does the web designer outsource the project? Because we've got our own team of USA website designers and ecommerce website developers, we don't outsource.
• Will the website designers create 301 redirects to help search rankings? We always create 301 redirects because we understand how important they are for Milwaukee SEO.
• Does the website developer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before building the site? We find it is easier to create a design mockup for Milwaukee website projects to help everyone understand the design direction before the website build gets too far along. However, that is only feasible if you choose a custom website design service. If you opt for a theme-based website, we'll provide several template samples for you to review instead.
• Which CMS platform does your Milwaukee 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 fast can your Milwaukee web development team turn things around? We typically finish custom website design projects in 2-3 months, and template website projects in 3-4 weeks. Ecommerce website projects typically take longer to finish.
• Does the web development agency have examples of innovative solutions? As a complete web design company, we enjoy a design or functionality challenge! Simply reach out to set up a phone call to discuss your needs!
