Illinois Web Design Services

Our Illinois Web Design Plans

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

Custom Web Developments for Illinois Businesses

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

This approach enables us to design custom mockups that meet your unique branding specifications, showcasing the appearance and atmosphere of your upcoming website prior to our web developers beginning their work. 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 custom web design mockup, our web development team will integrate it into a completely custom template. A custom theme has numerous advantages, such as a streamlined codebase that often leads to improved page performance and usability, since it was created solely for your Illinois website.

Template-Based Website Developments for Illinois Businesses

If the cost of a custom website isn't within the budget of your Illinois organizations or organization, we offer template-based websites that can save you money!

Rather than developing your website in a custom template and creating design mockups, we will hand-select a few site template that closely align with the desired appearance. However, you needn't worry as you'll have the freedom to choose your favorite template that we will install on your development site. Subsequently, we will customize the theme to align with your color scheme and integrate your content into the available layout options.

Illinois Website Design Pricing

Our starting price for a web development utilizing a personalized theme is $3,750, with a delivery time of 2-3 weeks.

A custom site that comes with design mockups starts at $9,500, and our typical turnaround time for this type of project is 8-12 weeks.

Determine Goals for Your Illinois Website Design Service

To choose the right custom web design company for your Illinois company, you need to know what your goals are. The most common goals we've seen for Illinois web design projects include:

• To create a website for a new organization in Illinois.
• To redesign an existing website for a fresh, professional look and feel.
• To improve a user's overall site experience (UX), to help reduce bounces, increase time on site, and improve conversions.
• To increase page performance for a passing score in Google Core Web Vitals.
• To fix website accessibility issues, or perhaps receive a web accessibility certificate.
• To make your website a lead generation machine, providing you more leads of high quality so your website advertising has a better ROI.

We've provided such web solutions before, so we can help our future Illinois web development clients, perhaps even you! Let us help you determine the goals of your custom Illinois website design project and ensure everyone is satisfied with the end result!

Our custom web development agency is happy to provide Aurora, Bloomington, Chicago, Decatur, Elgin, Joliet, Naperville, Palatine, Peoria, Rockford, Schaumburg, Skokie, and Springfield with professional website development services.

The Best CMS Platform for Illinois Websites

A content management system, or CMS, is what powers your Illinois website. While our top web developers are well-versed in multiple platforms, we prefer to only provide web design services in WordPress.

WordPress is simply the most popular open-source website platform, with more than 40% market share throughout Illinois and the greater Illinois area.

Our custom web development agency chooses to specialize in WordPress not only because it is the most popular CMS platform in Illinois, but also because it is simply the best overall. The following reasons make WordPress the most scalable platform for designing websites, despite the fact that there are alternatives to choose for your project.

Benefits of WordPress for Your Custom Website

• WordPress has thousands of quality plugins available to provide additional functionality for your website without the need for custom programming.
• WordPress has a large community of contributors helping to improve the platform's functionality, stability, and security.
• With WordPress, you should easily be able to find a localized Illinois web designer to help you with your project.

Questions to Ask Your Illinois Website Designer

You should ask your Illinois web development agency several questions before you get started. Let's go over some of the most common questions we get asked before starting a custom website design or web development project:

• Does the website designer outsource the project? We do not outsource custom website design projects for Illinois companies, since we have our own internal team of expert website designers.
• Will the premium web designers going to do 301 redirects to help perserve search engine rankings? We always create 301 redirects because we understand how important they are for Illinois SEO.
• Does the website designer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before starting the website? We always start with a design mockup for Illinois custom website development projects to ensure everyone understands the vision for the website. However, if you choose a template-based website design service we will instead show you template samples before we begin.
• What CMS platforms is your Illinois web developer experienced in? We prefer WordPress because of its popularity, scalability, and ease of use.
• How quick is the turnaround time for your Illinois website design service? We typically complete web design projects in 2-3 months.
• How good are the reviews of the custom website design firm when it comes to providing creative solutions? As a comprehensive web development agency, we love a challenge! Let us know what you have for unique needs and we will be happy to assist!

How We Design the Best Websites in Illinois

We know how to design Illinois websites! It helps having more than 18 years of experience in the industry!

1.) Discovery Call

The first step in the Illinois website design process is understanding your project and providing you an estimate for the work involved. We'll have a phone conversation or two to go over your custom website development needs and answer any questions you have about our designers.

2.) Kick Off Call

After selecting our custom web design company for your Illinois website service, we'll hold a kickoff call between you, one of our project managers, and one of our web designers. If you select a custom Illinois website design service, we'll discuss the creation of design mockups with you. Alternatively, if you chose a template Illinois web development service, we'll discuss your preferred design styles to help us find and suggest a few third-party templates for the project.

3.) Design Approval

After you approve your design mockup (for a custom Illinois website), or choose a final theme (for a template-based Illinois website), we'll get time scheduled for a web designer to begin your project!

4.) Development Process

The longest phase of a custom website design project is typically the web development process. Follow the progress of your Illinois web design on a password-protected development website.

5.) Website Launch

After the site has been finished for your Illinois business, we'll schedule it to be launched at a time convenient to everyone involved. Training is usually handled before or after a launch.
