Our Baltimore Website Services

We are a complete web design company with a large team of in-house web developers and ecommerce web designers. Our website design team is broken into two groups, each specializing in either template or custom website development services.

1.) Template-Based Web Designs

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Baltimore 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.

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

From there, we'll customize the theme to match your color scheme and then set up your web pages.

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

2.) Custom Web Developments

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

Following your approval of the design mockup, our web development team will integrate it into a custom theme. There are many benefits to a custom template, including a simplified codebase that often has better site speed and usability since it was developed specifically for your Baltimore business.

The starting price for a custom website development is around $9,500, and it can be finished in as little as a few weeks. For custom ecommerce web developments, the cost and turnaround will be higher.

3.) Website Maintenance

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

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

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

  • 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.
  • Freshening your blog with new content.
  • Rearranging your Baltimore site's navigation menu.
  • Making your pages faster to pass Google Core Web Vitals.
  • Making backups of your website's files and databases.
  • Changing the look and feel of your website.
  • Fixing website scan problems or Google Search Console coverage concerns.
  • Adding structured data, open graph tags, etc.
  • Investigating and solving any other website issue.
  • Importing / exporting ecommerce product data.

Picking a Platform for Your Baltimore, MD Website

The foundation of your Baltimore website is the content management system you choose for the design project. Even though our top website designers and ecommerce website 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 Maryland 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 Baltimore, but also because it is simply the best overall. Although there are dozens of content management systems to choose from, we've found WordPress to be the most scalable for designing websites.

  • WordPress has thousands of third-party plugins available that can provide additional functionality for your website.
  • 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 Baltimore website designer to work with you.

5 Steps to a Winning Website Project

2.) WooCommerce

If you run an ecommerce site with WordPress, you'll probably need a WooCommerce website developer in Baltimore.

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

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce website designers tend to recommend WooCommerce:

  • We often recommend WooCommerce for Baltimore website development projects that need a custom theme with complex functionality, but are on a budget. This is mostly due to custom theme and functionality work being cheaper in WooCommerce.
  • If your Baltimore 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 redesigning that website just to add ecommerce?
  • WooCommerce is a good open-source option for Baltimore organizations. 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.

WooCommerce Development

3.) Shopify

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

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

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce developers often recommend Shopify:

  • Baltimore merchants searching for a hosted ecommerce platform should check out Shopify. Shopify allows you to run an ecommerce business in Baltimore without the hassle of hosting configurations or platform updates.
  • When Baltimore 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, you'll find getting Shopify apps often require monthly subscriptions versus one-time purchases for WordPress plugins.
  • We often recommend Shopify for Baltimore ecommerce businesses that rely heavily on fast delivery 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 Baltimore, MD Web Developer

There are several important questions to ask your prospective Baltimore web design or ecommerce web development firm before proceeding with your project. Here are some of the most common ones we get asked before starting a custom web design or ecommerce website design project:

  • Does the website developer outsource the project? Because we've got our own team of USA web designers and ecommerce website developers, we don't outsource.
  • Do the web developers plan to create 301 redirects to help with SEO? For any Baltimore web design project that will replace an existing website, we plan out 301 redirects early in the project.
  • Does the website designer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before starting the website? We create design mockups for Baltimore companies that choose a custom website design service, and provide template samples for customers that choose a theme-based website design service.
  • Which CMS platform does your Baltimore 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 can your Baltimore website design team turn things around? Most of our custom website 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 provide original solutions? As a full-service website design firm, we love a challenge! Let us know what you have for unique needs and we will be happy to assist!

WebCitz helped the Oshkosh Area Humane Society with our new website and they were great to work with. Responsive, professional and affordable. I think the biggest perk for us was having someone local we could talk to for assistance instead of long wait times. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking to start up or revamp their website.

What can I say about this company? These people that work there? Unbelievable!! It doesn\'t matter when or why you call, they will help you. The other part of that statement is: I never have to call them! They made a web site for us that works 24/7. But if I do call they actually take care of it right then. … great bunch of guys…Southwest Radio Church really appreciates you!!

Corey was absolutely amazing in helping me with my issue. He was encouraging as we worked through things that to me were huge, but he made them seem small. Will definitely use WebCitz again!!!
