Still have questions? We have answers. Browse the most common questions our clients ask before getting started.
What are web design and development services?
Web design and development services encompass the end-to-end process of planning, designing, building, and launching websites and web applications. This includes UI/UX design, front-end development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript), back-end development, CMS integration (WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce), eCommerce setup, database architecture, API integrations, SEO optimization, and ongoing maintenance. At WebDesignEcom, we handle all of these disciplines under one roof, giving you a single accountable partner for your entire digital presence.
How much do professional web design and development services cost?
Professional web design and development services typically range from $500 for simple landing pages to $25,000+ for complex eCommerce platforms or custom web applications. At WebDesignEcom, we offer affordable web design and development services with transparent pricing packages starting at $799 for a 5-page WordPress website, $2,499 for our Professional package (eCommerce ready), and custom quotes for Enterprise projects. All prices include on-page SEO setup, mobile optimization, and post-launch support.
Do you offer eCommerce web design and development services?
Yes — eCommerce is one of our core specialties. We provide complete eCommerce web design development services on Shopify, WooCommerce, and custom platforms. Every store we build is optimized for conversions, Core Web Vitals, mobile shopping, structured data, and search engine visibility. We have delivered eCommerce solutions for fashion, health and wellness, electronics, home goods, B2B wholesale, and subscription box businesses.
What is the difference between custom web design and a template-based website?
Custom web design and development delivers a website built from scratch to match your unique brand identity, business logic, and conversion goals. There are no pre-purchased themes, no shared code bases, and no design constraints imposed by someone else's template. Template-based sites use pre-built designs that are faster and cheaper to produce, but they often limit brand differentiation, require workarounds for custom functionality, carry excess code bloat that slows performance, and are used by hundreds or thousands of other websites — making it harder to stand out in both design and search rankings.
Do you provide Local SEO as part of your web development services?
Every website we build includes foundational on-page SEO — metadata optimization, schema markup, internal linking, image alt text, XML sitemaps, and Google Search Console setup. We also offer dedicated Local SEO services as a standalone or add-on service: Google Business Profile optimization, local citation building across 50+ directories, review generation strategy, NAP consistency audits, and geo-targeted content creation. Local SEO is billed as a monthly retainer based on your target keyword volume and geographic scope.
How long does it take to build a professional website?
Project timelines vary based on scope and complexity. A standard 5-page brochure site typically takes 2–4 weeks. A custom WordPress or WooCommerce site with eCommerce functionality usually takes 4–8 weeks. A fully custom-built eCommerce platform with advanced integrations can take 8–16 weeks. We provide a detailed project timeline and milestone schedule at the start of every engagement so you always know exactly where your project stands.
Can you redesign my existing website without losing SEO rankings?
Absolutely. Our redesign process begins with a comprehensive pre-launch SEO audit to catalog your current rankings, indexed URLs, and inbound link profile. We create a complete 301 redirect map to preserve link equity across URL changes, migrate all existing metadata and structured data, and monitor rankings closely for the first 60 days post-launch with immediate corrective action if any drops are detected. SEO-safe redesigns are a standard part of our methodology — we have never had a client lose sustainable rankings due to a redesign we managed.
Do you offer website maintenance after launch?
Yes. Our website maintenance plans are available as monthly add-ons for all projects and cover: monthly WordPress core, theme, and plugin updates (tested in staging first); daily encrypted cloud backups with one-click restore; 24/7 uptime monitoring with instant alerting; security scanning and malware removal; monthly Core Web Vitals performance audits; and priority support with a 4-hour guaranteed response time. Maintenance plans start at $149/month and scale based on site complexity and update frequency requirements.
