      Working with Tessa and Johnny really brought my website dreams and vision to life. They were able to help meet my business needs while also coaching me on website best practices to see the results I was wanting. In the end, I have the most beautiful website, that's responsive and also does a much better job of communicating my business value. This is a very skilled and talented team of professionals.

      I’ve worked with 3 agencies over the past couple years and PGN was by far the best I’ve worked with. They really care about their clients and give special attention to someone that’s as needy as I am. Ka was my main point of contact and she really took time to get to know and understand our brand and always went above and beyond to get things done for me. She was very easy to work with. Great experience!

      Pete and his team have been fantastic to work with. They did the marketing and design for a company I was very familiar with when I first started in my industry, so when I went on my own and started my own business, they were my first thought. Ka, Amber, Jeff, and Patsy have all been amazing to work with throughout the entire process from designing my new company logo, to creating my new company website from scratch, and helping with so many other things along the way. I would absolutely recommend PGN to anyone looking for a partner to help grow their business and take the stress out of developing their company's brand. Well done, team! Looking forward to many more years of successful partnership with our teams!Dave PriesterPriester Lighting & Electrical Systems, LLC.

      Denio Lalo's Review Sourced from Google

      We recently started to collaborate with the agency. Ben and his team are designing three websites for us and we are thrilled from this whole experience. Ben is extremely knowledgeable and very efficient! The design side, is just a small part of this process, since our plan of expansion will need marketing strategies and a professional exposure in the media…, which is where Ben shines the most.The only challenge that we had so far, is lack of our support in terms of delivering the necessary information at the speed that we are required, but we are adjusting ourselves properly and so far we are in a good position.One final thing, has to do with the cost of the services, for which I could say that Ben is a very honest personality and he would never take advantage out of a situation. There are a lot of companies and services out there, that leads their customers in some “muddy waters” where they can easily strike, Ben is not the one!!

Frequently Asked Questions

What services do web design agencies offer?

Web design agencies provide a range of services to plan, create, and improve business websites. Their core services include: 

  • Custom website design tailored to your brand and goals 
  • Responsive web design to ensure the site works on desktop, tablet, and mobile 
  • UI/UX design to make the site easy to use 
  • Website development to turn designs into functional websites 
  • Landing page design for campaigns and conversions 
  • Website redesign to improve outdated or underperforming sites 

Beyond these core services, many web design companies also support digital marketing, including search engine optimization, content marketing, and email marketing to help improve visibility in search engines and attract potential customers.  

Some also offer brand identity, graphic design, and ongoing web design services like maintenance, updates, and performance improvements to strengthen your online presence over time. 

How much do website design companies charge for their services?

Professional web design services typically range between $5,000 and $60,000+, depending on complexity, features, and level of customization. Their projects commonly start around $10,000 to $15,000 and can exceed $50,000 for advanced websites. 

Here is a general breakdown: 

  • Basic business websites: $5,000 to $15,000 
  • Custom business websites with advanced UX design: $15,000 to $30,000 
  • Ecommerce and complex custom website projects: $30,000 to $60,000+ 

Several factors influence what website design companies charge. The biggest cost drivers include the number of pages, level of custom website design, and required web development. Features like booking systems, ecommerce functionality, or integrations increase the price because they require more design and development hours. 

In addition to the initial build, many web design companies charge ongoing maintenance fees ranging from $1,200 to $12,000 per year, which cover updates, security, and performance improvements. 

How long does it take to build a website?

A typical website design company timeline ranges from a few days to several months, depending on scope, content readiness, and required web development. 

  • Simple brochure website (1 to 5 pages): 1 to 2 weeks  
  • Small business website (5 to 15 pages, blog, forms): 4 to 8 weeks  
  • eCommerce website (standard features, 10 to 100 products): 8 to 16 weeks  
  • Large-scale custom website (bespoke features, integrations): 4 to 6+ months 
  • Custom web application: 6 to 12+ months  

Most delays come from two things: missing content (copy, images, product data) and an unclear scope that expands during the web design project.  

If content is ready and approvals are fast, timelines compress. If content is late and feedback is slow, timelines stretch. 

What are the hidden costs of web design?

Hidden web design costs usually show up in two phases: before launch and after launch. 

Pre-launch hidden costs 

  • Stock photos, fonts, and premium plugins (one-time fees plus renewals) 
  • Scope creep and extra revisions beyond what the contract includes 
  • Content creation (copywriting, product descriptions, graphics) 
  • Content migration from an old site (formatting, redirects, image cleanup) 
  • Integrations (CRM, booking, payments, analytics) that require extra setup and testing 

Post-launch hidden costs 

  • Web hosting and domain renewal (often increases as traffic grows) 
  • SSL certificate upgrades for ecommerce or higher trust requirements 
  • Website maintenance and security (updates, backups, monitoring, fixes) 
  • Email hosting (Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 per user) 

These costs appear because a website build quote often covers only the core design and development. Anything tied to licensing, content production, ongoing ownership, or changes outside the original scope gets billed separately unless the statement of work includes it. 

What is the difference between web design and web development?

Web design defines the visual interface and user experience of a website, while web development implements that design through code and technical functionality.
