      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.

      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.

7 FAQs About Austin Web Development Companies

How much do Austin web development companies charge for their services?

Austin web development companies charge $100 to $200 per hour, and a typical business website project runs from $8,000 to $25,000. Statewide, Austin is the priciest market in Texas for web development. 

Overall, pricing varies based on what you're building: 

Project typeAverage cost
Basic business website$8,000 to $15,000
Advanced business site$15,000 to $25,000
Custom web app$40,000 to $120,000+

Lower-cost builds typically include a template design, standard CMS setup, and a handful of pages. Higher costs usually come from: 

  • Custom UI/UX design instead of templates  
  • Backend development 
  • Third-party integrations (CRM, payments, scheduling systems)  
  • Content migration from legacy websites 

What is included in a typical Austin web development service package?

A standard web development package covers discovery, design, development, and testing, usually with a defined support period after launch. 

Here is what most web development services in Austin include: 

  • Discovery: Goals, target audience, competitor review, and technical requirements. 
  • Design: Wireframes, visual design, and revisions based on feedback. 
  • Development: Front-end build, CMS setup, and any integrations with CRMs, booking, or payment systems. 
  • Content: Placement and formatting of copy and images, though writing itself is often billed separately. 
  • Testing: Cross-browser checks, mobile responsiveness, and load-speed review before launch. 
  • Post-launch support: A fixed window of bug fixes, typically 30 to 90 days, before maintenance shifts to a separate contract. 

What do web development companies in Austin charge that most clients don't expect?

SEO and content creation are the two most underestimated costs in web development. A technically solid site that isn't optimized for search or populated with quality topical content will struggle to generate traffic no matter how well it performs. 

Other common add-ons include: 

  • Domain renewal: $10 to $15 per year 
  • Hosting: $5 to $50 per month for shared hosting, up to $500 per month for dedicated hosting 
  • Maintenance: $50 to $150 per month for basic plans, $100 to $500 per month for e-commerce sites 
  • Third-party licenses: Premium themes, plugins, or stock assets billed per item 
  • Revisions: Most contracts cap free revisions before extra charges apply 

How do I know whether I need a redesign or a completely new website?

You likely need a rebuild instead of a redesign when the underlying system limits performance or functionality, even if the design still looks acceptable. 

A redesign is usually enough when the structure is solid, but the visual design or user experience needs improvement. 

You need a new website if: 

  • Your CMS cannot support required functionality  
  • The codebase is outdated or difficult to maintain  
  • Performance issues persist after optimization  
  • Integrations are breaking or difficult to implement  
  • Security updates are no longer reliable  

A redesign is usually enough if: 

  • The backend system is stable  
  • Only UI/UX improvements are needed  
  • Content structure is already well organized  
  • No major functionality changes are required 

What are the biggest red flags when evaluating Austin web developers?

The biggest red flags when evaluating Austin web developers are unclear technical processes and lack of ownership transparency. 

Keep an eye out for these other warning signs: 

  • No staging environment before launch  
  • No version control system (Git) mentioned  
  • No clear QA or testing process  
  • Unclear ownership of source code or CMS access  
  • No discussion of performance standards (Core Web Vitals)  
  • Vague handling of integrations (“TBD” in proposals)  
  • No defined post-launch support or maintenance plan 

Will I be able to manage the website myself after launch?

You will be able to manage the website yourself after launch if the CMS is configured properly and the agency provides training and documentation. 

Most Austin web development companies design websites to be easily maintained by non-technical teams without developer help. 

This usually includes: 

  • CMS access with role-based permissions  
  • Page templates that prevent layout issues  
  • Training sessions for internal teams  
  • Documentation for content updates  
  • Simple editing tools for text, images, and pages  

Important note: technical updates, integrations, or system changes will still require developer support. 

Can web development projects go over budget, even after I’ve approved the proposal?

Yes, web development projects can go over budget even after approval when the original scope does not fully account for technical complexity or changes during the build process. 

This is common, especially on custom builds. 

Typical reasons for budget increases are: 

  • New features added 
  • Underestimated integration complexity  
  • Additional design revisions  
  • Content migration taking longer than expected  
  • Stakeholder feedback extending development
