Joseph Haile Co-Founder & Managing Director at TrueNorth Infrastructure Inc
5.0★
Web Design Review from Joseph Haile
We had an excellent experience working with Sara and the team at Mojo Media on the design and development of our new EverPatch website. We needed a professional bilingual website that could clearly present our company and products to municipalities, public works departments, contractors, and other infrastructure professionals. From the beginning, Sara took the time to understand our business, our target market, and what we were trying to accomplish. Communication was excellent throughout the project. Whenever we requested a revision or had a question, the team was responsive, patient, and willing to make the necessary adjustments until we were satisfied. What impressed us most was the level of personal attention Sara gave the project. We never felt like just another client. She was accessible, professional, and genuinely interested in making sure the final website represented our company properly. The finished website is professional, modern, easy to navigate, and gives EverPatch the credibility we wanted as we introduce our products to the municipal and infrastructure market. We are very pleased with the overall experience and would confidently recommend Mojo Media to any business looking for a professional web design team that cares about both the quality of the work and the client relationship.

Web Design Review from Roshan Kodabuckus
Sara and the team at Mojo are fantastic at what they do. I reviewed a number of vendors before moving forward with Mojo Media Agency, and Im very happy that we decided to move forward with them. They know their business inside out, from technical knowledge to understanding their audience to platform efficiency. And they are incredibly patient, always enthusiastic, great at problem solving and we are extremely pleased with our final website. I highly recommend Sara and the team, and I have a lot of praise for their technical skills, stakeholder management, and ability to deliver what was agreed (and beyond).

Web Design Review from Chirag Patel
Mojo Media did an amazing job building our new website for District AV. We worked with Sara, and she was great from start to finish. From the beginning, she listened to the vision I had for the site, understood our goals, and translated that into a design that was exactly in line with what I was looking for.District AV is a residential technology design and integration company, so it was important that the website felt polished, professional, and aligned with the high-end homes and clients we work with. Mojo did a great job helping us present our services clearly, including lighting control, motorized shades, audio/video, networking, security cameras, smart home control, and support.I've been involved in building a handful of websites in the past, and this was by far the easiest process. Sara was responsive, easy to communicate with, and kept the project moving without making it feel overwhelming. The design was on point from the initial direction I shared, and the final site gave us a much stronger online presence.Since the site is still new, its too early to measure long-term traffic or lead generation results, but the immediate impact is clear. We now have a professional website that better reflects the quality of work we do and gives us a great place to send potential clients, builders, designers, and referral partners.Overall, we're very happy with the final result and would highly recommend Mojo Media to any business looking for a strong website design partner.

Venturoso had a great experience working with VALMAX on our brand identity. They took the time to understand our vision and translated it into a clear, cohesive, and distinctive brand identity that reflects who we are and what we are building. Throughout the project, the team was professional, responsive, and highly communicative. They consistently met deadlines, were open to feedback, and made the collaboration smooth and efficient. We really appreciated their attention to detail and ability to turn our ideas into a strong visual direction.
Lilia Tkach Assistant of Head of Project Management at Face the Service

Web Design Review from Lilia Tkach
We worked with Valmax on the full redesign and rebuild of the 11 Mirrors website. For us, this was not simply a visual update. The website needed to reflect the brands approach to hospitality while working as a practical commercial tool across the hotel, Restaurant & Bar, and FACE the Rooftop. The scope included a full WordPress rebuild, Ukrainian and English versions, booking flows, integrations, mobile optimisation, and a CMS that our marketing team could manage independently. Our experience working with Valmax was structured and straightforward. The project moved through clear stages discovery, wireframes, UI design, development, QA, content, and launch which made it easy for us to understand where we were in the process and provide input when needed. Importantly, the team understood the business logic behind our requirements rather than treating them purely as design requests. The result is a website that better connects our different hospitality experiences, makes booking actions easier to reach, and is more practical for our team to manage day to day. Overall, Valmax delivered what we had agreed on and handled a fairly complex project in a clear and organised way.

Geoff Den Business owner at American Pools LLC
5.0★
WordPress Website Design Review from Geoff Den
Our collaboration with WebLitchi has been a transformative experience for our Pool & Spa Services company. From the outset, our goals were clear: enhance our online presence, receive expert guidance on marketing strategies, and revamp our website. WebLitchi's team, comprised of a CEO, copywriter, designer, developers, project manager, and customer relationship manager, exhibited a remarkable level of flexibility and efficiency. Their ability to work with minimal client involvement was particularly impressive, allowing us to focus on our core business while they executed the redesign and development of our website and implemented effective marketing strategies.The project's measurable outcomes have been undeniably positive. WebLitchi's marketing efforts led to a sustainable flow of prospects, contributing significantly to our business metrics with approximately 30% of all jobs originating from their strategies. The enhanced website not only improved visual appeal but also translated into a better user experience, reflected in decreased bounce rates and increased engagement. Throughout the collaboration, WebLitchi's project management was commendable, delivering items on time with occasional delays largely attributable to our team's availability constraints.While the collaboration has been overwhelmingly successful, minor areas for improvement could include refining communication channels and enhancing proactive suggestions for strategy optimization. Nevertheless, these considerations do not overshadow the overall positive experience with WebLitchi. Their responsiveness, commitment to results, and unique ability to adapt and deliver have positioned them as a valuable partner in our journey to elevate our business in the competitive Pool & Spa Services industry.

What stands out most about WebLitchi is their ability to transcend the typical client-vendor relationship and truly act as strategic business partners. The depth of their involvement goes beyond merely providing services; they demonstrate a genuine understanding of our business goals and consistently align their efforts with our best interests.WebLitchi's unique approach lies in their proactive contribution to the projects. They don't merely execute tasks; they actively engage in discussions, provide valuable insights, and, when necessary, push back on suggestions that may not align with the overarching goals. This collaborative and consultative stance distinguishes them as a partner deeply invested in the success of our brand.The company's commitment to holistic business growth is evident in their impact on various facets of our operations. From improving brand perception to attracting talent and driving increased online transactions, WebLitchi has proven to be not just a service provider but a catalyst for positive change and advancement.what is most impressive about WebLitchi is their ability to transcend the conventional client-agency dynamic, functioning as true business partners with a vested interest in our success. Their collaborative approach, strategic insights, and tangible contributions to overall business growth make them stand out in the digital services landscape.

WebLitchi Web Agency has been an invaluable partner for our small private equity firm, ANI, located in the suburbs of Chicago. We initiated our collaboration in 2018 with the goal of revamping our outdated website, and WebLitchi has delivered beyond our expectations.What impressed us most was the unwavering professionalism exhibited by the WebLitchi team. They consistently met deadlines, maintained transparent communication channels through both email and phone, and demonstrated a proactive approach to addressing any challenges that arose during the project. This professionalism not only instilled confidence in their capabilities but also fostered a collaborative and efficient working relationship.Navigating the development of a new website from scratch was a first for our team, and WebLitchi's patience throughout the process was instrumental. Their understanding and guidance made the journey more manageable, creating a supportive environment for collaboration. This patient approach significantly contributed to the success of the project.WebLitchi's creativity added a distinctive touch to the collaboration. They didn't just fulfill our basic requirements; they brought innovative ideas to the table and suggested enhancements that elevated the project. This creative input played a crucial role in developing a website that not only met our technical specifications but exceeded our expectations in terms of design and functionality.our experience with WebLitchi has been overwhelmingly positive. Their professionalism, patience, and creative prowess have made them a valuable partner in the success of our website development project. We appreciate their dedication to excellence and look forward to continued collaboration.

I never leave reviews, but once in a while the work quality is so good I make exceptions.This is one of those times. Noah provided very advanced SEO work for one of my largest clients, fron scratch, finding and fixing SEO technical issues and conversion optimization issues that made a major difference for my client in both organic traffic and conversions.Traffic from search increased more than expected. Conversions to sales increased by about 20% plus an increase in AOV. Combining both an increase in traffic and an increase in conversions and an increase in AOV is nothing short of a home run.I will be channeling more of my clients' SEO and CRO to Epidemic for sure. Great people to work with, awesome results. And I teach digital marketing professionally.Marty MarionCEOMaster Positioning, LLC

The onboarding process was smooth, but after six months, we saw very little movement in our organic traffic. Every time we brought this up, we were told that SEO 'takes time' and to 'trust the process.' While I understand that, I felt there was a lack of urgency in pivoting our strategy when the initial keywords weren't performing as promised.

Marcus Smith Review from Google

Marcus Smith's Review Sourced from Google
Our organization, FirstCall Labor Solutions, launched a project to redevelop our website which required us to interview a number of firms to help us. Through this process, Daniel at Windy City Web Solutions stood out and a good blend of visionary and pragmatist.WCWS was able to take our brand identity, business model, and mission statement and translate that into a well thought out, user friendly website. Their process was iterative and allowed for changes right up until we went live.When the project came to a point where a creative art director was necessary, WCWS was able to refer a firm that was effective and efficient.I would recommend WCWS.

I worked with Daniel to create a new website for a nonprofit client. Daniel created a stunning website that is super accessible and straightforward for our users. His knowledge of web design and best practices, along with his creative techniques, made all the difference in developing our new site. In addition, his ongoing support and security package is super helpful for our team.

Audrey Brill's Review Sourced from Google
Daniel was very communicative throughout the entire process and made everything easy to understand. He was patient and flexible when we changed our minds or requested revisions. Whenever something couldn’t be done exactly as we asked, he took the time to clearly explain why and worked with us to find the best possible solution. In the end, he helped create a website that looks great and that we’re really happy with.

Rent A Jumper - Bounce Houses and More's Review Sourced from Google
I hired Aqua Designs Works to create my new website and they are also the hosting. Since yesterday, my website is down, my email not working and they are not responding phone calls or emails. I feel very disappointed for their lack of reliability and responsibility to inform me what's going on. Anyone knows what's going on with this company? Website paid in full, hosting annual fee paid in full and they are not giving any response to my requests. Thank you

john renshaw's Review Sourced from Google
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Some projects are just business. This wasn’t one of them.For more than a year, the Flamingo team worked side by side with me to build Electric Reel Films, the website that represents my life’s work. It contains over 30 original film and television projects, hundreds of pages of content, original artwork, videos, and years of creative development. It was an enormous undertaking, and they treated it as if it were their own.There were countless revisions, new ideas, and creative challenges along the way. Not once did they make me feel like my vision was too ambitious. Instead, they listened, offered thoughtful solutions, and kept finding ways to make the website better than I imagined. Their creativity, patience, communication, and craftsmanship were exceptional throughout the entire process.What they ultimately delivered wasn’t just a beautiful website—it became the permanent home for my creative career and a legacy I’ll be proud to share for years to come. That’s something I’ll never forget.If you’re looking for a team that genuinely cares about your project, treats you with respect, and is capable of building something truly extraordinary, I can’t recommend Flamingo highly enough. They exceeded every expectation I had, and I’m incredibly grateful for everything they did. Thank you for helping make my dream a reality.

We recently hired Chris with Flamingo Agency to create a new website for our law firm, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. He was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process—always quick to answer questions and open to any revisions we requested. His efficiency was impressive; the entire project was completed within just two weeks without sacrificing quality or attention to detail. We’re very happy with the final product and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for professional, reliable web design services.

Reviews verified by DesignRush and sourced from the agency's profile View All Reviews
What services does a website development firm in Chicago typically provide?
They provide a broad suite of digital services that help businesses launch, grow, and optimize their online presence, including:
Responsive web design and website redesign: Crafting the website's structure, design system, and information architecture from scratch or redesigning an existing website based on the client’s vision, user behavior research, and industry best practices. It is a core component of Chicago web design, where competition across industries demands both visual appeal and performance.
Custom web development: Architecting and coding web applications with bespoke functionalities, data models, and system integrations to align with precise business logic and operational workflows.
Content management system (CMS) development: Building custom or extending existing platforms (e.g., WordPress, Drupal) to enable non-technical users to create, edit, and manage web content.
Front-end development: Coding the visual parts of a website (what users see and interact with) using technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Back-end development: Building server-side functionality, databases, and business logic that power features behind the scenes.
API and Third-Party Integrations: Connecting the site with external systems (e.g., payment processors, CRM platforms, marketing automation tools, and Google Analytics) for expanded functionality.
Maintenance and support: Updating platform dependencies, applying security patches, debugging, and optimizing code to ensure the website remains secure, stable, and performant while supporting timely delivery of updates and feature enhancements.
What should I have ready before contacting an agency?
Before contacting a Chicago web development company, prepare the following to save time, cut costs, and get accurate proposals:
Business goals: What you want the website or app to achieve (leads, sales, brand awareness).
Target audience: Who will use it (age, industry, behavior).
Scope and features: Clear list of needed features (eCommerce, login, forms, booking, CMS).
Content inventory: Any existing site content, branding, logos, and images.
Technical requirements: Preferred CMS/stack, integrations (CRM, payment, Google Analytics tracking).
Design references: Examples of sites you like or dislike and why.
Budget range: A realistic amount of money you can afford to build a responsive website
Timeline: Desired launch date and any hard deadlines.
Internal roles: Who on your team will own reviews, content edits, and approvals.
How much does a web developer in Chicago charge for their services?
The cost of web development in Chicago reflects a major metro premium, typically 15-25% higher than the national average. If you hire a boutique agency, expect to pay between $150 and $250/hourfor their web development services.
Enterprise-level agencies, on the other hand, charge much higher fees, ranging between $250 and $450. The costs of web development can range anywhere from $5,000 for a simple website to over $500,000 for complex enterprise solutions.
Most web developers Chicago-wide prefer flat-fee project pricing for new builds. In Chicago, these projects typically fall into these tiers:
Website type
Cost
Features
Small business site
$5,000-$75,000
5-20 pages
Mobile-responsive design, basic SEO setup, contact forms, and Google Business Profile integration.
Corporate Website
$15,000-$45,000
20-50 pages
Custom CMS configurations, team profiles, gated content (whitepapers/case studies), and CRM integration (Salesforce/HubSpot).
ECommerce websites
$30,000-$1,000,000+
Shopify Plus, Magento (Adobe Commerce), or custom WooCommerce.
Tech Stack: React, Node.js, Python/Django, or Next.js.
Do these agencies provide ongoing maintenance?
Yes, ongoing maintenance is a core service for almost every web development company Chicago-wide. The city is home to many enterprise-level firms and highly competitive local businesses, so agencies will not build a custom site without offering a maintenance plan, as it protects their work and ensures the site stays secure in a high-risk digital environment.
Based on several industry benchmarks, you can expect to pay the following fees for website maintenance:
Tier
Estimated monthly cost
What's included
Basic
$150-$500
Security patches, core CMS/plugin updates, monthly backups, and uptime monitoring.
Standard
$500-$2,500
All basic features plus content updates (blogging), minor UI tweaks, and monthly SEO/performance reports.
Enterprise
$2,500-$10,000+
Dedicated development hours (10-30+ hrs), priority support, ADA compliance audits, and conversion rate optimization (CRO).
Why is a Chicago website development company more expensive than an offshore one?
While offshore teams in regions like Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, or Latin America offer lower headline rates, the price gap is driven by economic, legal, and operational realities. United States developers require significantly higher wages due to the higher cost of living, taxes, benefits, and competitive demand. On the other hand, many offshore regions have lower labor costs, which is why offshore hourly rates can be 40–70% lower.
Working with a Chicago web development agency eliminates large time-zone gaps and language or cultural friction that can slow decision-making, require more project management, and increase rework costs when teams are offshore. Onshore firms are also more likely to be aligned with U.S. data privacy, accessibility, industry compliance, and contract law expectations. Offshore providers often win on headline hourly rates, but local Chicago development companies tend to deliver better alignment, clearer communication, fewer delays, and lower total effort risk.
