Our Anchorage Website Services

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

1.) Template-Based Web Designs

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Anchorage organization might be interested in a template website!

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

Don't worry though, you'll be able to select your desired theme for us to install on your development site.

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

The starting price for a template website design is around $3,750, and it can be finished in as little as a few weeks. For template ecommerce web designs, the price and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Website Designs

As a custom web development agency, we love to begin every Anchorage website 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. In addition, these mockups can undergo changes until you're pleased with the design concept, enabling you to advance with certainty.

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

The starting cost for a custom website design is about $9,500, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For custom ecommerce 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 Anchorage business access to a website developer or ecommerce website developer who can fix just about any problem.

Here are a few examples of website requests that might require service from Anchorage web maintenance firms, including:

  • Upgrading your website platform to the latest version.
  • Updating apps, themes, and plugins.
  • Adding new pages whenever you release something new.
  • Freshening your blog with new content.
  • Rearranging your Anchorage site's navigation menu.
  • Making your pages faster to pass Google Core Web Vitals.
  • Making backups of your website's files and databases.
  • Modifying the look and feel of your website's design.
  • Troubleshooting Google Search Console coverage concerns.
  • Enhancing technical SEO with structured data, open graph tags, etc.
  • Investigating and solving any other website issue.

Picking a Platform for Your Anchorage, AK Website

Your Anchorage website is likely powered by a content management system, or CMS. 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 Alaska 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 Anchorage, but also because it is simply the best overall. 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 functionality to your website through third-party WordPress plugins. Not everything has to be built from scratch!
  • WordPress has a huge community of contributors that work together to improve its security, stability, and functionality.
  • WordPress is popular among professional website design firms and freelance web designers, making it possible to find a local Anchorage website designer to work with you.

5 Steps to a Winning Website Project

2.) WooCommerce

If you run an ecommerce website with WordPress, you'll probably need a WooCommerce web designer in Anchorage.

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

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

  • If you need a custom template 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 Anchorage small business already has a WordPress site, we often recommend WooCommerce. If you are happy with the look and feel of your content-based website, why invest the time and money into remaking that website just to add ecommerce?
  • We often recommend WooCommerce for Anchorage small businesses who prefer open-source software. You don't have to pay a monthly fee to use 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.

WooCommerce Development

3.) Shopify

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

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

Here are some reasons our ecommerce website developers like Shopify:

  • For Anchorage merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. Shopify allows you to run an ecommerce business in Anchorage without the hassle of hosting configurations or platform updates.
  • When Anchorage web companies don't need a lot of custom functionality, we often recommend Shopify. 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.
  • Shopify is a good option for Anchorage 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 Anchorage, AK Website Developer

You should ask a few questions of your prospective Anchorage web design or ecommerce website development firm before starting a project. Here are some we get asked before starting a custom web design or ecommerce web development project:

  • Does the web developer outsource the project? 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 always create 301 redirects because we understand how important they are for Anchorage SEO.
  • Will the website designer make a mockup, or provide theme samples, before starting the site? We always start with a design mockup for Anchorage custom web design projects to ensure everyone understands the vision for the website. However, if you choose a theme-based web design service we will instead show you template samples before we begin.
  • Which CMS platform does your Anchorage web designer plan to use on your website project? Due to its popularity, scalability, and ease of use, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
  • How fast can your Anchorage web design team turn things around? Most of our custom website design 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 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!
