Why People Trust DesignRush

Boasting an impressive average 4.7-star rating on both Google and Trustpilot, the DesignRush Agency Directory connects clients with reputable and credible small business website design companies.

Our leadership and ranking team comprise former agency owners and industry leaders—their invaluable experience empowers us to establish strict benchmarks and KPIs for all the agencies we showcase.

Here are some of the criteria we use when selecting the best small business web designers:

  • Web Design Portfolio: The best small business website design agencies have an extensive portfolio of web designs that showcase their expertise. This should include the results the client achieved from their web design—be it increased ROI, enhanced user experience, or increased online visibility.
  • Client Reviews: Each agency on the list above has not only passed our scrutiny but also that of your fellow clients. These agencies received positive feedback due to their exemplary time management skills, responsiveness, communication skills, work quality, and cost of services.
  • Reputation Among Small Business Owners: We examined how strong each agency’s reputation is among small business owners. Their social media presence, awards and recognitions, and press mentions signal the agency’s capacity to deliver exceptional results.
  • Team Expertise: Can they provide the appropriate number of experts to work on your project? Do they have access to top talent? What certifications do team members have? The expertise of an agency’s team is crucial to your success.

For more information on how we select our top agencies across various industries, check out our DesignRush Agency Ranking Methodology.

Sources

DesignRush sustains a directory of over 30,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise and reviews. We build our database in two ways:

  • Our dedicated team of agency experts actively search the web for top performing companies. We then pull information from their websites, online presence and client testimonials to verify their status and qualifications prior to listing.
  • The agencies listed get notified of their profiles on the website and they can choose to claim it or not, which suggests their availability for more collaborations.

Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.

Small Business Website Design Company Hiring Guide

What is a small business website design company?

Small business web design companies are composed of designers and developers who prototype, design, develop, and enhance websites with the specific needs, challenges, and goals of small businesses in mind.

Through functional, user-friendly, and visually pleasing websites, they help small businesses, startups, and SMEs compete with well-established brands and leverage the benefits a professional website.  This enables small businesses to showcase their offerings, attract potential customers, and, ultimately, drive business growth even without the budget or scale of larger enterprises.
