Nanaimo, BC Web Design

With more than 18 years of experience, we know professional web development! With our modern website design services, we help Nanaimo organizations build new websites or redesign old websites.

Nanaimo has a population of 90,505 people (per the 2016 report from the United Nations) so you want to make sure your business has a useful, functional website to help stay competitive.

Designing fresh Nanaimo websites starts with deciding which CMS platform is best for you. This allows us to better understand the needs and goals of your custom web design project.

From there, we'll go over questions to ask any Nanaimo website design firm to help make sure you're working with the right one. We will even discuss with you the process of our custom web design service for Nanaimo small businesses to help you better understand the deliverables and timeframe.

In addition to UX web development, our award-winning team offers services like internet advertising, web hosting, and website maintenance.

Throughout the custom web design process, you'll be so glad you chose us instead of an alternative small-business Nanaimo website design service!

Nanaimo, BC Web Developers

Our Nanaimo Web Design Tactics

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

Custom Web Developments for Nanaimo Businesses

As a custom website design firm, we like to start every Nanaimo web design service from scratch.

This allows our team to design custom mockups specific to your branding requirements, to show you the look and feel of your future website before website developers start their work. Moreover, these mockups can be altered to your satisfaction, allowing you to finalize the design concept and proceed with confidence.

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

The cost of a custom website with design mockups begins at $9,500, and we can deliver the finished product in 8 to 12 weeks.

Template-Based Web Designs for Nanaimo Companies

In the event a customized website isn't possible within your Nanaimo organization budget, we provide template-based websites that can help cut costs.

Instead of creating design mockups and developing your website in a custom template, we'll hand-pick several site templates that closely match your desired look and feel. But don't fret - you will have the option to choose your preferred theme for us to install on your development site. Next, we will modify the template to correspond with your color scheme, and integrate your content into the layout options available.

To obtain a web design that utilizes a customized website theme, we charge a starting fee of $3,750 and can finish the project within 2 to 3 weeks.

Pricing for Nanaimo, BC Website Design Services

The cost of our web design services is based on the amount of time you can afford to allocate toward the development of your website. If budget is a concern, we suggest exploring a template-based website development as an affordable option. If customization and performance are important to you, we suggest considering a custom website built from the ground up and beginning with a design mockup.

Determine Goals for Your Nanaimo, BC Website Design Service

Before proceeding with the selection of a custom web design company for your Nanaimo business, it is important to understand what the goals are for your site project. These are the most common goals we see for Nanaimo web design projects:

  • To create a website for a new Nanaimo company.
  • To redesign an existing website into a modern web design to give a better first impression to visitors.
  • To improve user experience, reduce bounce rates, and improve conversion rates.
  • To pass Google Core Web Vitals.
  • To fix site accessibility glitches, or perhaps receive a web accessibility certificate.
  • To improve your lead generation capabilities by having a better website that delivers more leads and better conversion opportunities.

We have experience delivering on such website goals, which should be of great help to British Columbia website design clients, such as yourself. Let us help you determine the goals of your custom Nanaimo web design project and ensure everyone is satisfied with the end result!

In addition to designing Nanaimo-area websites, our website design firm also offers Vancouver, Surrey, Burnaby, Abbotsford, Kelowna, Victoria, and Chilliwack small businesses and large corporations a custom web design service.

The Best CMS Platform for Nanaimo, BC Websites

The foundation of your Nanaimo website is the content management system you choose for the design project. Even though our top web designers are well-versed in multiple platforms, we only use WordPress for new content-based website projects.

More than 40% of websites in British Columbia 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 Nanaimo, but just because it's the best for a custom web development service. While there are dozens of content management systems to consider, we've found WordPress to be the most scalable platform for designing websites.

Benefits of WordPress for Your Custom Web Design Project

  • You can add functionality to your website without custom programming with WordPress plugins.
  • WordPress has a large community of contributors helping to improve the platform's functionality, stability, and security.
  • WordPress is huge among custom web development agencies and freelance web designer, so you can find a local Nanaimo website developer to work with you.

5 Steps to a Winning Website Project

Questions to Ask Your Nanaimo, BC Web Designer

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

  • Does the web developer outsource the website project? Because we have our own internal team of skilled website developers, we don't outsource custom web design projects to other companies.
  • Do the professional web developers plan to create 301 redirects to keep search engines happy? For any Nanaimo custom 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 find it is easier to create a design mockup for Nanaimo website projects to help everyone understand the design direction before the website build gets too far along. However, that is only possible 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 Nanaimo web developer plan to use on your website project? We prefer WordPress because of its scalability, ease of use, and popularity.
  • How fast is your Nanaimo website design service? We typically complete web design projects in 2-3 months.
  • Does the other custom website design firm have a good history delivering creative solutions to customers? As a complete web design company, we love a design challenge! Simply reach out to set up a phone call to discuss your needs!

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.

Incredibly responsive, fast, and professional. They quickly understood the issue we were having with our site, which was fairly complicated, and were able to resolve it. They kept us updated in lay terms along the way so that we could understand how the issue was progressing.
Alo Health

WebCitz designed our Alo Health website and did such a great job of walking us step-by-step through the process, knowing the tech world was not a strength of ours. We love that we are able to change content whenever we want, but if we run into problems, they are a quick email away. They have been responsive, reliable and efficient. Thanks, WebCitz!
