Reston Web Design Services

Our Reston Website Services

We are a complete website design firm with a large staff of internal web designers and ecommerce website developers. Our web development agency is separated into two teams, each working on either template or custom website design services.

1.) Template-Based Web Developments

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

Instead of creating design mockups and developing your website in a custom template, we can hand-pick several website templates to share with you that closely match your desired look and feel.

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 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 Reston 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. In addition, these mockups can undergo changes until you're pleased with the design concept, enabling you to advance with certainty.

Once you've given your approval for the design mockup, our website development team will merge it into a custom theme. Opting for a custom template can provide several benefits, including a simplified codebase that usually delivers enhanced page speed and usability, as it was tailored specifically for your Reston small business.

The starting price for a custom web design is $9,500, and it can be completed in as little as a few months. For custom ecommerce web developments, the price and turnaround will be higher.

3.) Website Maintenance

After the launch of your website, or if you have one, you might be interested in website support services.

We think of web maintenance as a reactive support service where we provide your Reston company access to a web developer or ecommerce website developer who can fix just about any problem.

Here are some examples of website requests that Reston web maintenance companies might help with:

• Updating your site platform.
• Keeping apps, themes and plugins updated.
• Adding new pages whenever you release something new.
• Freshening your blog with new content.
• Rearranging your Reston website's navigation menu.
• Making your pages faster to pass Google Core Web Vitals.
• Taking backups of your website's files and databases.
• Changing the look and feel of your website.
• Troubleshooting Google Search Console coverage errors.
• Enhancing technical search engine optimization with structured data, open graph tags, etc.

In addition to designing Reston-area websites, our agency also provides website design services to those in Alexandria, Arlington, Chesapeake, Norfolk, Roanoke, Richmond, Virginia Beach, and Lynchburg.

Picking a Platform for Your Reston, VA Website

A content management system, or CMS, is what powers your Reston website. 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

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

Our website design firm chooses to specialize in WordPress not only because it is the most popular CMS platform in Reston, but also because it is simply the best overall. 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!
• 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 web designers, making it possible to find a local Reston website designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

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

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

• We often recommend WooCommerce for Reston web development 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 Reston small business already has a WordPress site, we often recommend WooCommerce. It doesn't make sense to spend a lot of time and money remaking your content-based website just to add ecommerce.
• Most small businesses in Reston 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 searching for a Shopify website designer in Reston.

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

Here are some reasons our ecommerce website developers like Shopify:

• For Reston merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. With Shopify, you can run an ecommerce business in Reston without worrying about hosting setups or platform updates.
• When Reston 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.
• Shopify is a good option for Reston ecommerce businesses that need fast turnaround times for marketing and development. It is often faster with Shopify to test out new products, themes, apps, or ideas.

Questions to Ask a Reston, VA Website Developer

You should ask your prospective Reston web design or ecommerce website development firm several questions before you get started. Here are some we get asked before starting a custom web design or ecommerce web development project:

• Does the web developer outsource the work? Because we've got our own team of USA website designers and ecommerce website designers, we don't outsource.
• Do the website developers plan to create 301 redirects to help with SEO? We are careful when it comes to broken URLs, so we plan to implement 301 redirects during any Reston website redesign project.
• Does the website designer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before building the site? We find it is easier to create a design mockup for Reston website projects to help everyone understand the design direction before the website build gets too far along. However, that is only viable if you choose a custom web 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 Reston website developer plan to use on your website project? Due to its scalability, ease of use, and popularity, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How fast is your Reston website design service? Most of our custom web development projects are ready in two to three months, but template websites are closer to three to four weeks. Ecommerce projects usually require more time.
• Does the web design company have examples of 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!
