Mount Pleasant, SC Web Design Services

Our Mount Pleasant Website Services

We are a one-stop web development agency with a large group of onsite web designers and ecommerce developers. Our web design team is separated into two groups, each focusing on either template or custom website design services.

1.) Template-Based Web Developments

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Mount Pleasant small business might be interested in a template site!

Rather than designing mockups and developing a custom template 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.

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-based web design is $3,750, and it can be completed in as little as a few weeks. For template-based ecommerce web developments, the price and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Website Designs

As a custom website design firm, we like to start every Mount Pleasant 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.

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

Picking a Platform for Your Mount Pleasant, SC Website

Your Mount Pleasant website is likely powered by a content management system, or CMS. 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

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

WordPress is the most popular CMS in Mount Pleasant, but it's also the best in terms of overall performance and scalability of a customized web development. 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 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 Mount Pleasant website designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

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

These are some of the reasons our ecommerce web developers like 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 Mount Pleasant 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 Mount Pleasant who prefer open-source software use WooCommerce. 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. If you want to run an ecommerce website in Mount Pleasant, you'll probably need a Shopify website developer.

Our Shopify web development team has experience designing websites for online stores around South Carolina within the Shopify platform.

Here are some reasons our ecommerce developers like Shopify:

• Mount Pleasant merchants looking for a hosted ecommerce platform should check out Shopify. With Shopify, you don't have to worry about hosting configuration or platform updates.
• For Mount Pleasant web companies that don't need a lot of custom features, we often recommend Shopify. The cost of developing custom functionality within Shopify is often higher than in 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 Mount Pleasant 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 Mount Pleasant, SC Web Designer

You should ask a few questions of your prospective Mount Pleasant website development or ecommerce web development company before starting a project. Let's go over 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 project? Because we've got our own team of USA web developers and ecommerce web designers, we don't outsource.
• Will the web designers make 301 redirects to help preserve search rankings? We are careful when it comes to broken URLs, so we plan to implement 301 redirects during any Mount Pleasant website redesign project.
• Does the website designer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before building the site? We create design mockups for Mount Pleasant clients that choose a custom website design service, and provide template samples for businesses that choose a template-based website design service.
• Which CMS platform does your Mount Pleasant website developer plan to use on your website project? Because of its scalability, ease of use, and popularity, we prefer WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How fast is your Mount Pleasant website design service? It takes us about 2-3 months to finish custom web design projects, and 3-4 weeks to finish template websites. Ecommerce developments often take longer.
• Does the website development agency provide 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!
