Salt Lake City Web Design Services

Our Salt Lake City 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 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 Salt Lake City 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.

But don't worry - you'll have the option to choose your preferred template for us to install on your development site.

We will then tailor the theme to align with your color scheme and load in your web content.

The starting price for a templated website design is about $3,750, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For templated ecommerce website developments, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Web Designs

As a custom website development agency, we love to begin every Salt Lake City website 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 web developers begin their 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. A custom theme offers numerous advantages, such as a streamlined codebase that typically results in improved page performance and usability, since it was created exclusively for your Salt Lake City small business.

The starting cost for a custom web design is about $9,500, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For custom ecommerce website developments, the price and turnaround will be higher.

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

Here are a few examples of website requests that might require service from Salt Lake City website maintenance agencies, including:

• Updating your website platform.

Picking a Platform for Your Salt Lake City, UT Website

Your Salt Lake City website is likely powered by a content management system, or CMS. Even though our top web designers and ecommerce 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 Utah and the rest of the country are powered by WordPress.

WordPress is the most popular CMS in Salt Lake City, but it's also the best in terms of overall performance and scalability of a customized website design. Although there are dozens of content management systems to choose from, we've found WordPress to be the most scalable for designing websites.

• You can add 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 web design companies and freelance web developers, making it possible to find a local Salt Lake City website designer to work with you.

2.) WooCommerce

We help Salt Lake City startups and ecommerce businesses build and launch awesome stores with WooCommerce.

Here's why our ecommerce website developers 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 Salt Lake City business website runs on WordPress, we typically 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?
• Most small businesses in Salt Lake City who prefer open-source software use WooCommerce. You don't have to pay a monthly fee 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 hosted ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce website using Shopify, you'll need a Shopify web developer in Salt Lake City.

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

Here are some reasons our ecommerce website developers like Shopify:

• For Salt Lake City merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. With Shopify, you don't have to worry about hosting configuration or platform updates.
• We often recommend Shopify for Salt Lake City web companies without a lot of custom functionality requirements. The cost of developing custom functionality within Shopify is often higher than in WordPress. Additionally, you'll find getting Shopify apps often require monthly subscriptions versus one-time purchases for WordPress plugins.
• The best ecommerce platform for Salt Lake City organizations 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 Salt Lake City, UT Website Designer

You should ask a few questions of your prospective Salt Lake City web development or ecommerce web design company before starting a project. Here are some of the most common ones we get asked before starting a custom website development or ecommerce web development project:

• Does the website designer outsource the project? Because we've got our own team of USA web developers and ecommerce developers, we don't outsource.
• Will the website designers make 301 redirects to help preserve search placements? For any Salt Lake City web design project that will replace an existing website, we plan out 301 redirects early in the project.
• Will the web designer make a mockup, or provide template samples, before starting the site? We find it is easier to create a design mockup for Salt Lake City 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 web design service. If you opt for a template-based website, we'll provide several template samples for you to review instead.
• Which CMS platform does your Salt Lake City web 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 Salt Lake City website design service? We typically finish custom web design projects in 2-3 months, and template website projects in 3-4 weeks. Ecommerce website projects typically take longer to finish.
• Does the website design firm provide creative solutions? As a comprehensive website 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!
