Hoffman Estates Website Design

When a potential client in Hoffman Estates visits your website the first thing they will judge you by is the layout and design of the site. How many times have you visited a website looking for services and left before reading any of the content because the layout was unorganized, the design cookie cutter or the content dated? I understand that you are unique and your Hoffman Estates business is successful because you have differentiated yourself from your Hoffman Estates competitors in a way that is valuable to your clients and customers. Your website should reflect that.

The primary advantage of being a freelance website designer is that I’m able to interact directly with my clients in Hoffman Estates. Often Hoffman Estates companies come to me from larger firms that were too big to address their issues in a timely manner, or not at all. With large website design firms it’s easy to get “lost in the shuffle”. Even worse these large firms are increasingly outsourcing websites to developers overseas. I guarantee I will NEVER outsource your website. I pride myself in taking time to listen to my clients so we can create a website you will be proud to show your customers. My goal is to create a website that will showcase your Hoffman Estates business while maximizing your return on investment, making your website project not an expense but an investment.

Each website I design is customized for the clients in Hoffman Estates. Templates, layouts, graphics, and color schemes are just a few of the considerations we will discuss before designing your website. If you have a specific layout or design request I will sit down with you to ensure I create exactly what you desire. Of course I have templates from websites I have created in the past, and we can base your site off one of those, but if you see a site that you like I can create a custom template for your Hoffman Estates business. Your custom website will showcase your specific offerings and engage your ideal Hoffman Estates customers, so you can meet your long-term business goals faster.

I’m fluent in HTML5, CSS3, Javascript, PHP and JQuery. I have a ton of experience creating WordPress websites as well as Magento and WooCommerce for e-commerce websites. I host all the websites I create on a reseller server with Namecheap. Namecheap has a 99.9% uptime and is one of the largest website hosting companies in the world. Each website has an individual CPanel, which means you can have multiple e-mail addresses, settings and each website environment is isolated. I’m also proficient with the Adobe family of products, which I primarily use for graphic design. You can rest assured if there’s a feature you would like on your Hoffman Estates website I can make it happen.

A responsive website responds to your browser size. This means whether your Hoffman Estates customer loads your website on a computer, tablet or cell phone the website will adjust to fit that device. In today’s world clients in Hoffman Estates are using tablets and cell phones with increasing frequency and it’s crucial your website is ready. If you adjust the browser size on any page of my website you will see the layout adjust. Below a defined pixel size you will see a drop down menu appear rather than squeeze or distort the navigation bar. Images and text will center for uniformity and certain images will stretch across the screen and automatically resize. There are many other subtle changes I can customize so your Hoffman Estates website looks great no matter what device your client is using.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is creating your website to rank well with search engines, most notably Google and Bing when customers in Hoffman Estates visit your website. There are many factors that go into search engine rankings and it’s a subject I have a lot of knowledge and success in. Other web design firms charge $50 – $200 PER MONTH for SEO. I believe SEO is something that is essential starting the day your website goes live and I NEVER charge extra for that service. The SEO firms are sharks. They make promises they can’t fulfill and string you along as long as possible until you’re fed up and fire them. Then many of them remove the SEO features they added to your website. This is an unfair practice and I would never treat my Hoffman Estates clients that way.

If you want to sell your products online I can create an advanced eCommerce website to grow your Hoffman Estates business. For small businesses in Hoffman Estates I recommend WooCommerce, which runs on WordPress as the best option. It’s one of the most popular eCommerce platforms and is fairly simple to manage. The Magento platform is the most powerful eCommerce platform. I suggest Magento for mid to large sized Hoffman Estates businesses. Magento is used by many Fortune 500 companies and is the industry standard for large online retailers. An advanced eCommerce website can help your Hoffman Estates business grow by selling your goods and services for you 24/7/365. All eCommerce websites are secured with a Comodo SSL certificate that can carry up to a $250,000 warranty. These certificates will protect your Hoffman Estates company from fraud and their site seal will assure your customers they’re making a purchase from a reputable company. I have experience running eCommerce websites for companies in Hoffman Estates and can suggest plugins and anti-fraud solutions to help your eCommerce store be secure and profitable.

A strong Social Media presence is a powerful part of a comprehensive marketing strategy for your Hoffman Estates business. Social Media pages do not cost anything to create and are a powerful medium to reach your customers in Hoffman Estates directly. Facebook, Google+ and Twitter are the three most popular Social Media services that every Hoffman Estates business should take advantage of. Other firms charge extra to design custom headers and logos for social media pages, but this is a service I include in all website packages. I believe having a strong presence on social media is not just a recommendation, but rather a requirement for your Hoffman Estates business. Google and Bing place a lot of weight on how often a business posts on social media and how engaged their customers are on those platforms. I can also manage your social media pages and create posts that are specific to your business and industry in Hoffman Estates.

In addition to the services listed above there are many other ways I can optimize your website to produce results in Hoffman Estates. A well organized and graphically appealing photo gallery can boost your websites conversions and get you to connect better with your target Addison audience. Advertising with Google and Bing can connect your business with qualified potential customers in Addison at a much higher level than traditional advertising, while reducing cost.
