Our Brantford Web Services

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

1.) Template-Based Website Developments

Searching for an affordable website option? Your Brantford small business might be interested in a template website!

Rather than designing mockups and developing a custom theme for your website, we can search for a few website templates that match the look and feel you want in your next site or online store.

Don't worry though, you'll be able to select your desired 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 design is $3,750, and it can be completed in as little as a few weeks. For template-based ecommerce website developments, the price and turnaround will be higher.

2.) Custom Web Designs

As a custom website design firm, we love to begin every Brantford web 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 web development work. These mockups can be altered to your satisfaction, allowing you to finalize the design concept and proceed with confidence.

Following your approval of the design mockup, our website development team will integrate it into a custom theme. Opting for a custom template can provide several benefits, including a simplified codebase that usually delivers enhanced site speed and usability, as it was tailored specifically for your Brantford business.

The starting cost for a custom web development 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 view web maintenance to be a reactive support service that provides your Brantford small business access to a web developer or ecommerce developer who can solve nearly any website problem you have.

Here are a few examples of site requests that might require service from Brantford website support companies, including:

  • Upgrading your website platform to the latest version.
  • Installing app, theme or plugin updates.
  • Adding new pages whenever you release something new.
  • Freshening your blog with new content.

Set Goals for Your Brantford, Ontario Website

Before proceeding with the selection of a template or custom web development agency for your Brantford business, it is important to understand what the goals are for your website project. The most common goals we've seen for Brantford website development and ecommerce web development projects include:

  1. To build a website or online store for a new business in Brantford.
  2. To give an old website or storefront a fresh look and feel to improve branding and functionality.
  3. To improve user experience (UX), reduce bounces, increase time on site, and/or improve conversions.
  4. To increase page speed for a passing score in Google Core Web Vitals.

Picking a Platform for Your Brantford, Ontario Website

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

1.) WordPress

More than 40% of websites in Ontario and the rest of the country are powered by WordPress.

WordPress is the most popular CMS in Brantford, but it's also the best in terms of overall performance and scalability of a customized web development. While there are dozens of content management systems to consider, we've found WordPress to be the most scalable platform 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.
  • With WordPress, you should easily be able to find a local Brantford web designer to help you with your project.

5 Steps to a Winning Website Project

2.) WooCommerce

If you want an ecommerce website using WordPress, you'll likely need a WooCommerce web developer in Brantford.

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

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

  • We often recommend WooCommerce for Brantford web 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.
  • We often recommend WooCommerce for Brantford small businesses with an existing WordPress site. If you are happy with the look and feel of your content-based website, why invest the time and money into redoing that website just to add ecommerce?
  • We often recommend WooCommerce for Brantford companies who prefer open-source software. There are no monthly fees 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 web-based ecommerce platform. To run an ecommerce website using Shopify you will likely be looking for a Shopify web designer in Brantford.

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

Our ecommerce web developers love Shopify for these reasons:

  • For Brantford merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. With Shopify, you can run an ecommerce business in Brantford without worrying about hosting setups or platform updates.
  • For Brantford web companies that don't need a lot of custom features, we often recommend Shopify. The cost of developing custom functionality within Shopify is often higher than in WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees that really add up, in comparison to the less expensive WordPress plugin options.
  • Shopify is a great option for Brantford ecommerce businesses that need fast delivery times for marketing and development. It is often faster with Shopify to test out new products, themes, apps, or ideas.

Questions to Ask a Brantford, Ontario Web Designer

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

  • Does the website designer outsource the work? Because we've got our own team of premium website designers and ecommerce website designers, we don't outsource.
  • Will the website developers make 301 redirects to help preserve search placements? We always create 301 redirects because we understand how important they are for Brantford search engine optimization.
  • Does the web developer plan to create a mockup, or provide theme samples, before starting the website? We create design mockups for Brantford customers that choose a custom web development service, and provide template samples for companies that choose a theme-based website development service.
  • What CMS platforms is your Brantford web designer experienced in? Due to its scalability, ease of use, and popularity, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
  • How fast can your Brantford website design team turn things around? It takes us about 2-3 months to finish custom web design projects, and 3-4 weeks to finish template websites. Ecommerce developments often take longer.
  • Does the website development agency provide 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!

Corey was extremely helpful and spent a considerable amount of time going over my difficulties with a newly created website put together by someone else. I was under a very stressful deadline and he was extremely considerate and helpful. He managed to fix the problems that I was experiencing with my website. I had reached out to a number of website developers for help but only heard back from WebCitz and Corey got back to me within minutes!

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!!!

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!!

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.

Jen Ollanketo

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.
