Mojo Media Reviews & Testimonials
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.

Monarch Web Solutions provided me with great consulting on my e-commerce business. During the engagement, Daniel from Manarch really listened about my business and provided exceptional strategic insights on how my business can better convert and how we can continue to grow. His approach is thoughtful and you can really tell they focus on your business individually as opposed to staying general advice. I recommend them highly and am looking forward to our next project!

Digital Marketing Review from Randy Hill
We hired Allegiant Digital Marketing after several failed attempts with other digital marketing agencies to help us generate business from the internet. They helped build our new website and run our PPC and SEO. As soon as we began working with them we noticed instantly a pretty substantial uptick in our digital leads. Not only are they really good at what they do, but they really show they care about our business by going above and beyond for us. Highly recommended!

Arthur Choi's Review Sourced from Google
Allegiant Digital Marketing has gone above and beyond for us time and time again—handling complex website migrations, hitting emergency deadlines, and delivering the impossible with incredible skill. So many times, when our company was in a bind, Chad and his team stepped in and saved the day for us. Whether or not that is fixing caching issues, delivering on technical SEO requests, and providing us with an actionable marketing strategy to help our company stand out from the rest of the competition. Chad Markham, the owner, brings vast expertise not just in marketing but also in the M&A space across diverse industries like HVAC, tree care, restoration, roofing, and eCommerce. His team is equally outstanding, especially Chris Tucker (no relation to the celebrity!), who has consistently prioritized our needs even during their busiest times. We’re infinitely grateful for their dedication and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-tier marketing partner!

From improving our online presence to generating quality leads, they’ve been an incredible partner every step of the way. The detailed reporting and proactive communication give us confidence in their ability to adapt and optimize our campaigns. We highly recommend them to any business looking for a reliable marketing partner for RHP.

dax johnson's Review Sourced from Google
Exceptional Team.This is our experience with Black Ops Agency, hopefully to those reading this will help and finding the right AV team for you.I recommend Black Ops Agency.Background: hosting an in-person austin event requiring microphones, speakers, and full recording with 4 angles.From the beginning of contact to the conclusion of the event, Wesley & Ramin were incredible. Their energy and attitude were attentive, patient, and intelligent.One of the most important parts I observed was the communication being CLEAR, and FAST.They were adjustable on everything, and affordable.*-------------------Additional details from our experience:Pros:-We did 1 full event with Black Ops, which included multiple services, however, definitely not all of them. That said - From this experience with them, I & the rest of our team observed no issues from Ramin or Wesley. I have no requests or feedback for them has they have dialed their business in for the services we needed. If anything, I received great feedback to optimize my part.-Highly adjustable-Great Communication-Clear and specific-Clean and professional, not to "Casual" nor stilted, preggish, or overly formal. Just good people who get it done!Cons:Only Con which is more of a reminder to all those looking for this service would be: Their energy type (attitude-personalities-etc) may not resonate with everyone. It did for us, and I know many people who would also resonate with them. - I wanted to add this as it's essential in any business, event, or other construction, having the right people, not just in their skills, but the way they work and process internally, is frequently overlooked.--------------------I am extremely happy with the results of Blacks Ops Agency for our event AV team.* Compared to similar teams in the areaThank you,Dax Johnson

If you need any marketing help or web design look no further. Level Nine Media is who you need. Rob communicated with us every step of the way with what he was doing. He ran a check to see what we needed updated and turned out our website needed a complete overhaul haul. Before Rob took over our website we would get maybe 2-3 inquiries a day. Now my phone doesn’t stop ringing! I get about 6-7 calls a day and we get even more inquiries through our website. We have had our new sight about a month now and Rob even sent us our new numbers and it’s astonishing how much more traction we have! Thank you Rob for building us a website that is amazing and attractive to new clients!

7 Frequently Asked Questions About Austin Web Design Services
How much does web design cost in Austin?
Web design in Austin usually costs $1,500 to $12,000 for most small business websites, while complex custom or eCommerce projects can reach $15,000 to $40,000+.
Austin sits on the higher end of Texas web design pricing, with local agencies averaging around $111 per hour because of strong demand from the city’s tech market.
A simple template-based website typically costs $1,500 to $3,500
A custom small business website usually costs $6,000 to $12,000
A more advanced business website can cost $8,000 to $13,000+
An eCommerce or complex website starts around $15,000 and can exceed $40,000
Website maintenance commonly ranges from $500 to $2,500 per month
The final price depends on the number of pages, design complexity, SEO, copywriting, eCommerce features, integrations, and the designer’s experience.
The cheapest quote is rarely the safest choice, especially in Austin, where strong portfolio work and clear deliverables matter more than the lowest upfront price.
How long does it take to design a website with a web design company in Austin?
A website with an Austin web design company can take 1 to 12 weeks for a template-based site, while custom and eCommerce projects usually take longer.
The timeline depends on the number of pages, content readiness, revisions, approvals, integrations, and custom features. A reliable agency should outline the full timeline before the project starts, including design, development, testing, and launch.
What are the red flags when evaluating an Austin web design agency?
The clearest red flag when evaluating an Austin web design agency is vagueness about ownership, process, or price.
If a team cannot tell you plainly who owns the code and content after launch, how many revision rounds are included, or what happens when the project runs long, you are looking at future disputes.
Watch for these warning signs:
No clear contract on code and CMS ownership
A portfolio with no live links
Vague or "we'll figure it out later" pricing
Design with no discovery phase
Pressure to sign fast
If two or more of these show up, keep looking. The right partner is transparent before you have paid a cent.
What is the difference between web development and a web design agency in Austin?
Web design covers how a site looks and feels, while web development covers how it is built and functions, and full-service Austin web design services usually include both.
Before hiring, confirm whether the same team handles design, development, testing, and launch, or whether you will need separate specialists.
Area
Web design
Web development
Main focus
Look, feel, layout, and user experience
Code, functionality, performance, and integrations
Work involved
Colors, typography, page layout, wireframes, UX, mobile design
Do Austin web design agencies also handle SEO or ongoing marketing?
Many Austin web design agencies offer SEO and ongoing marketing, but the depth of that service varies widely, so you should never assume it is included.
Some bake basic on-page SEO into every build, such as clean code, fast load times, and proper heading structure. Others treat SEO and marketing as separate retainers you pay for after launch. This matters because a beautiful site that no one can find is a wasted investment.
Ask upfront whether search visibility is part of the build or an add-on, and get the answer in writing, since the strongest Austin web design services treat findability as part of the design brief rather than an afterthought.
What support should I expect from a website design company in Austin after launch?
A dependable website design company in Austin should offer a clear post-launch support window, usually 30 to 90 days of free bug fixes, plus an optional maintenance plan. Support often includes security updates, plugin updates, backups, and small content changes.
Do not assume support is free forever. Ask what is included after launch, what maintenance costs are, and how fast they respond when something breaks.
A website design company in Austin should define these terms before you sign, so you are not left guessing once the site goes live.
What happens if the finished site doesn't perform the way I expected?
If the finished site underperforms, your protection depends on what the contract says. A strong agreement should define deliverables, revision rounds, acceptance criteria, and what happens if the work misses the agreed scope.
Reputable web designers in Austin set measurable expectations early, such as page speed, mobile responsiveness, browser compatibility, and required features. That makes performance easier to judge instead of turning it into a subjective disagreement.
If your goal is more leads or sales, remember that no honest agency can guarantee revenue. What they can guarantee is a site that meets the technical, design, and functional standards set out in the contract.
