Toledo, OH Web Design Services

Our Toledo Web Services

We are a full-service website design firm with a large team of in-house web designers and ecommerce website developers. Our web development team is separated into two groups, each focusing on either template or custom web design services.

1.) Template-Based Website Designs

Searching for an affordable site option? Your Toledo business 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 template for us to install on your development site.

Next, we will modify the theme to use your color scheme and then add in your web pages.

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 prefer to start every Toledo website design service from scratch.

This approach allows our team to design custom mockups specific to your branding requirements. You'll appreciate seeing the look and feel of your future website before our web designers start building the site. Best of all, those mockups can be revised until you're happy with the design concept and are ready to move forward.

After you approve the design mockup, our website development team will integrate it into a completely custom theme. Opting for a custom template can provide several benefits, including a simplified codebase that usually delivers enhanced website performance and usability, as it was tailored specifically for your Toledo company.

The starting price for a custom website design is around $9,500, and it can be finished in as little as a few weeks. For custom ecommerce web designs, 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 maintenance services.

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

Here are some examples of website requests that Toledo website support firms might help with:

• Making sure your website's platform is up to date.
• Installing app, theme or plugin updates.
• Adding new web pages as you release new products or services.
• Writing new blog content to help you stay fresh.

Picking a Platform for Your Toledo, OH Website

The foundation of your Toledo website is the content management system you choose for the design project. While our top web designers and ecommerce developers are well-versed in multiple platforms, we prefer to only provide web design services in WordPress, and ecommerce development services in Shopify or WooCommerce.

1.) WordPress

More than 40% of websites in Ohio 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 Toledo, but just because it's the best for a customized website design 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.
• With WordPress, you should easily be able to find a local Toledo web designer to help you with your project.

2.) WooCommerce

Our WooCommerce web development team has experience helping startups and existing ecommerce businesses in Toledo build amazing stores with WooCommerce.

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

• We often recommend WooCommerce for Toledo web design projects that need a custom template with complex functionality, but are on a budget. This is mostly due to custom theme and functionality work being cheaper in WooCommerce.
• If your Toledo organization already has a WordPress site, we often recommend WooCommerce. It doesn't make sense to spend a lot of time and money redesigning your content-based website just to add ecommerce.
• WooCommerce is a great open-source option for Toledo businesses. 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.
• We also recommend WooCommerce for those in an industry not accepted by Shopify.

3.) Shopify

Shopify is the most popular SaaS ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce website using Shopify, you'll need a Shopify website designer in Toledo.

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

Here are some reasons our ecommerce website developers like Shopify:

• For Toledo 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 Toledo web companies without a lot of custom functionality requirements. It is often more expensive to develop custom functionality within Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees versus WooCommerce plugins that are more affordable.
• We often recommend Shopify for Toledo ecommerce businesses that rely heavily on fast turnaround times for development and marketing initiatives. It is often faster with Shopify to test out new products, themes, apps, or ideas.

Questions to Ask a Toledo, OH Web Designer

There are several important questions to ask your prospective Toledo website design or ecommerce website development agency before proceeding with your project. Let's go over some of the most common ones we get asked before starting a custom website design or ecommerce development project:

• Does the web designer outsource the project? Because we've got our own team of USA website designers and ecommerce web designers, we don't outsource.
• Will the web designers create 301 redirects to help search rankings? We always create 301 redirects because we understand how important they are for Toledo search engine optimization.
• Does the web developer plan to create a mockup, or provide template samples, before building the site? We find it is easier to create a design mockup for Toledo 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 website design service. If you opt for a theme-based website, we'll provide several template samples for you to review instead.
• What CMS platforms is your Toledo web designer experienced in? We prefer WordPress because of its scalability, ease of use, and popularity. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
• How quick is the delivery time for your Toledo website development service? 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 experience with 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!
