      I worked with Forefront to redesign my nonprofits website and had an amazing experience. They were professional, creative, easy to work with.. I could go on and on. Our website looks amazing and is exactly what we were hoping for. I worked closely with Nick during the process and could not speak more highly of him.Since our redesign project completed, we now use Forefront for our website maintenance and that has also been just a flawless experience. Anytime I run into a problem Phill helps me in a timely manner and is so helpful.Can't recommend Forefront enough!

      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).

    • Chirag Patel

      5.0★

      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 Web Development Companies in Texas

How much do Texas web development services cost?

On average, Texas web development services cost from $3,000 to $15,000. ECommerce platforms range from $10,000 to $40,000, while custom web applications can reach $40,000 to $120,000 or more. 

The average cost for a professional business site is between $5,000 and $15,000. This covers custom design, development, mobile responsiveness, and basic SEO. Larger, more complex projects push well beyond this range. 

Overall, rates vary by market. Austin is the priciest city for web development services in Texas, averaging $111/hour, with Houston and Dallas following closely, at $103 and $96 per hour, respectively. 

A small business website typically runs five to eight pages: homepage, services, about, blog, and contact. Through a local agency, that build can cost between $3,000 and $10,000. Annual maintenance, security updates, and hosting add $600 to $2,500 per year after launch.  

What's included in a standard package from Texas web developers?

Texas web developers’ standard packages cover discovery, design, development, testing, and post-launch support. 

  • Discovery: goals, audience, competitor review, technical requirements 
  • Design: wireframes and visual design, with a set number of free revision rounds 
  • Development: front-end build, CMS setup, integrations (CRM, payments, booking) 
  • Content placement: formatting of copy and images; producing the content assets is usually billed separately 
  • Testing: cross-browser checks, mobile responsiveness, load-speed review 
  • Post-launch support: a 30 to 90 day bug-fix window before maintenance shifts to a separate contract 

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

SEO and content creation are the two most underestimated costs. A fast, well-coded site with no optimization and no real content simply won't rank. 

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 eCommerce 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 need a rebuild when the system itself limits functionality, not just when the design looks dated.  

Rebuild if: 

  • Your CMS can't support what you need 
  • The codebase is outdated or hard to maintain 
  • Performance issues persist after optimization 
  • Integrations keep breaking 
  • Security updates are no longer reliable 

Redesign is enough if: 

  • The backend is stable 
  • Only the UI/UX needs work 
  • Content is already well organized 
  • No new functionality is required 

What are the biggest red flags when evaluating web development companies in Texas?

Unclear process and vague ownership terms are the two biggest warning signs. Also watch for: 

  • No staging environment before launch 
  • No mention of version control (Git) 
  • No defined QA or testing process 
  • Ambiguous ownership of source code or CMS access 
  • No discussion of Core Web Vitals or performance targets 
  • "TBD" on integrations in the proposal 
  • No post-launch support plan in writing 
  • A quote well below every other bid you've collected 

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

Yes, if the Texas web development company you’re working with has set up the CMS properly and has provided training. Most Texas web developers build the sites to be easily managed by a non-technical team, including: 

  • CMS access with role-based permissions 
  • Page templates that prevent layout breakage 
  • A training session for your team 
  • Written documentation for content updates 
  • Simple, no-code editing tools

Technical changes, such as new integrations, backend logic, and system upgrades, will still need developer support. 

Can the project go over budget after I've already approved the quote?

Yes, the project can go over budget, and this is common on custom builds. Typical reasons for that include: 

  • New features added mid-project 
  • Underestimated integration complexity 
  • Additional design revisions 
  • Content migration taking longer than expected 
  • Stakeholder feedback extending the timeline
