      DDC has been an excellent partner since we engaged with them in 2023. The DDC team worked with us to completely redesign our website and work to provide ongoing digital marketing services. The DDC team has been responsive, proactive, and thorough with their work. They are also very transparent about how they operate and how much time special projects will require. We have referred DDC to several clients and partners thanks to their outstanding process and product. DDC is a very professional, creative, and well-organized team.

      Web Design Review from Sapna Doshi, Ph.D.

      My experience working with Design in DC was incredible. Everyone was friendly, approachable, and seemed to genuinely care about helping create the best possible website for my business. They were also invested in making sure the process was one in which I enjoyed and felt taken care of. The regular meetings made me feel like I was a priority and that progress was continually being made. I so appreciated the attention to detail in regards to the user experience. The collaboration in understanding my wishes and desires for the website and user experience was met with patience and paying attention to detail on my behalf. Not only were they taking my suggestions but offering their own to help me maximize the potential of my website. The design and functionality is more than what I could have imagined. I know, undoubtedly, that the work that Design in DC did for me will help my business grow. After wasting money in years past on website designers, I was worried I'd be doing hte same here. I was wrong. I don't think I'll ever need to search for another website designer group again. I would recommend this group to anyone I know. Thank you, Design in DC! It was an absolute pleasure working with all of you!

      Web Development Review from Jeff Peters

      Before finding Greg Hatch and True Market Media, we went through a few other web design companies, and every experience was a disaster. We'd end up with a huge bill and a site riddled with broken features and broken English. It was beyond frustrating. So when it came time to try again and finally replace our 10-year-old DIY website, we were honestly a little skeptical going in. Greg and his team completely changed our expectations. They were highly recommended by several people I know who own or operate well-respected businesses in Alberta, but, given past experiences, I still had some trepidation. They put those worries to rest after our first meeting. They took the time to understand our business, communicated clearly throughout the process, and delivered a website that is both highly functional and genuinely beautiful. The difference in quality is night and day. If you've been burned by other web developers before, or are simply looking for a top-notch website, do yourself a favour and call True Market Media. We couldn't be happier.

      Web Design Review from Justin Nally

      If you're looking for a website design company that can take your online presence to the next level, look no further than True Market! From the very start, Greg and his team impressed me with their professionalism and attention to detail. Their experienced designers and developers worked closely with Beck to understand our unique needs and goals, and they were always available to answer any questions we had along the way. The end result was a website that far exceeded our expectations. The design was sleek and modern, with a user-friendly interface that made it easy for visitors to navigate and find the information they needed. But what really set True Market apart was their commitment to customer service. They went above and beyond to ensure that we were completely satisfied with the final product, and were available for any additional questions we may have had. Overall, I would highly recommend True Market to anyone looking for a website design company that truly cares about its clients. With their expertise, creativity, and dedication to quality, they are sure to take your online presence to the next level!

Our website turned out amazing, and I am very happy I chose them to work with.

      Specifically, working with Ben was amazing! He was incredibly responsive and answered all my questions throughout the process of updating our website. Our original site was built roughly a decade ago (or longer) so we were in need of some streamlining and modernization. The team did just that and quickly! The first iteration was spot on for what we were looking for. Not to mention, they were able to launch quickly and without any interruption to our daily operations. Would 100% recommend [it]!

Why hire a small business website design agency?

Hiring a leading small business website design agency is beneficial in many ways. Here are some notable benefits you shouldn’t miss out on:  

Reach Your Local Audience 

A recent BrightLocal survey found that 98% of consumers search the internet to find information about a local business. Having a robust online presence and an optimized website will make it easier for potential customers to find you, boosting both your website traffic and conversions.  

Increase Credibility 

The same BrightLocal survey shows that 76% of consumers regularly read online reviews for local businesses. Nowadays, consumers have so many options to choose from, which is why they rely on reviews before making a purchase.  

Web designers for small businesses can help you appropriately incorporate reviews into your website. Moreover, they can optimize your website according to the principles of web design, further increasing your credibility among consumers.  

With their high-end services, you will get an eye-catching and functional site that boosts your brand’s reliability and allows users to make secure purchases. 

Boost Your Profit 

According to Insider Intelligence, the number of online shoppers in the US is expected to reach 218.8 million in 2023. Your digital presence starts with a website, your biggest marketing asset in the digital age we live in.  

Top web design firms understand the nuances involved in small businesses. And they are knowledgeable in the latest web design tips to increase conversions. Taking advantage of the technical expertise of the best website design companies for small business, you can also promote your products or services online.

This case study reiterates the importance of outsourcing professional small business web design services. Brothers Pest Control approached Big Red Jelly, a Utah-based small business website design agency, for a site redesign. The project resulted in a whopping 1,700% increase in leads.

How many hours does it take to design a website?

Generally, it takes anywhere from 40 to 300 hours to design a website. However, the timeline is largely dependent on the website’s complexity and the agency’s level of commitment to the project.  

Here are some sample time frames for various types of websites:

Type of websiteAverage number of hours
Landing page40
Simple web application120
Average web application200
Complex web application300

How much does a simple website design cost?

A simple web design costs a flat rate of $5,000. Complex and larger sites can cost up to $10,000. Meanwhile, the average rate for web design on a per-hour basis ranges from $30 to $80.

However, the actual cost of web design services can vary depending on the type of website, number of features and images, maintenance, and complexity of the project as well as the designer’s skills, years of experience, and geographical location.

How do I find good web designers who work with small businesses?

Finding the best website designer for your small business can be daunting. Follow this step-by-step guide to find the perfect fit: 

  1. Guide the design process by clarifying your goals and requirements for the website. 
  2. Identify your target audience and their needs, preferences, and behaviors.  
  3. Set a budget for your website design project.  
  4. Research reputable web design agencies that cater to small businesses.  
  5. Check their client list to see if they work with local businesses.  
  6. Peruse their portfolio and testimonials to gauge their performance, accomplishments, and client satisfaction. See what kind of feedback past clients have about the results they have delivered, how responsive and committed they are, whether they meet deadlines, and other relevant aspects. 
  7. Find out which of these candidates has experience working on similar projects. The agencies that understand your target market well can speed up project delivery and accelerate results. 
  8. Request proposals that include projected timelines, costs, project scope, and deliverables.  
  9. Inquire about the agency’s SEO capabilities. This is essential to attracting more organic and local traffic.  
  10. Conduct interviews with shortlisted agencies to get a clear view of their communication, technical skills, relevant niche experience, and commitment. 
  11. Consider the company culture if you want to invest in a long-term relationship. Working with a company that shares the same values as your brand is important and a sign that you will be able to function together as one team. 
  12. Compare the offerings and choose the web design agency that best aligns with your goals, budget, values, and preferences.
