Website Redesign near Seattle, WA
Most sites do not fail all at once. They drift.
A page gets added here, a plugin breaks there, the phone number ends up in three different formats, and one day you realize the site is working against you. Our office sits in Kent, about 20 miles south of downtown Seattle, and we rebuild sites for businesses across the Seattle area. We are a BBB Accredited Business, founded by a PMP-certified professional, and we are minority-owned.

What You Get in a Website Redesign
A builder you can actually use. We build on Oasis, our drag and drop platform. Move a block, swap a photo, rewrite a paragraph. No ticket, no waiting, no hourly charge for a typo fix.
A layout that works on every screen. Pages reflow for phones, tablets, and desktops on their own, which matters more than it used to. More than half the traffic on the sites we manage arrives on a phone. Our responsive websites page goes deeper on how that works.
Search visibility built in, not bolted on. Clean headings, real page titles, proper markup, and a structure Google can read. We pair a redesign with local SEO when a client wants rankings and not just a new look.
Traffic reporting you will read. You see how many people visited, which pages they opened, and where they left.
Email and newsletters from the same place. Send updates to your customer list from your site rather than from a separate tool you forget to log into.
Content you can keep adding. Articles, photo sets, video, and online booking. If customers need to reserve a time, they should be able to do it at 11pm without calling you.
Hosting that stays up. Your site sits on managed servers with security monitoring and backups. A site that goes down during a Seahawks weekend costs you real money.
Online selling when you need it. Product pages, order management, payments, and digital downloads. Our ecommerce website design service handles stores that outgrow a simple catalog.
A team you can reach. Call or email and you get a person who knows your project.
Our Seattle Website Redesign Process
Six steps, in this order, every time.
1. Consultation. We ask what the site needs to do, who it is for, and what is going wrong now. Most of this call is us listening.
2. Strategy and planning. We map the pages, the structure, and the functions before anyone opens a design tool. Skipping this is how projects run over.
3. Design and development. We build the visual design and the site itself, matched to your brand rather than to a template we like.
4. Testing. Every page checked across browsers and devices, load times measured, forms submitted for real.
5. Launch. We handle the DNS, the redirects, and the cutover. Old URLs point at the right new pages, so the rankings you already earned survive the move.
6. Support and updates. We stay on after launch for security patches, content changes, and the questions that show up in month two. Our website maintenance services cover that ongoing work.
What happens to your search rankings when a redesign goes live without a redirect map?
They drop, sometimes hard, and it takes months to claw back. We have seen sites lose most of their organic traffic in a week because a developer changed every URL and mapped none of them. That step is not optional in our process.
Why Seattle Businesses Want a Local Design Team
Ever had a designer ask you which neighborhood your customers drive in from?
We know who is buying here. A Ballard coffee roaster, a SoDo contractor, and a Kent warehouse operation do not sell the same way. A designer three time zones away builds the same page for all three.
Standing out takes more than a clean template. The Seattle market is crowded with sharp, design-literate businesses. Your site has to look current and say something specific.
We are on your clock. Same time zone, same week, same schedule. When you email at 9am you are not waiting overnight for a reply.
We work with people we might run into. We are members of the Kent, Renton, and Seattle Southside chambers of commerce. Reputation travels fast in a business community this connected.
What a Redesign Costs
We quote after we look at your site, not before, and the quote comes from our Kent office rather than a sales desk somewhere else. Four things drive the number.
Page count. A nine page brochure site and a sixty page catalog are different projects.
Content. If your existing copy is usable we edit it. If it needs writing, that is real work and we price it.
Functions. A contact form is quick. Booking, member logins, or a store with inventory rules take longer.
Migration complexity. Moving off a platform that fights you costs more than moving off one that exports cleanly.
Tell us your web address and roughly what you want changed, and we will come back with a real number and a timeline instead of a range that always lands at the top.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a website redesign take?
Most projects run three to six weeks from kickoff to launch. The biggest variable is how fast content and feedback come back from your side, not how fast we build.
Will I lose my Google rankings when the new site goes live?
Not if the migration is done properly. We map every old URL to its new address before launch and watch search performance for weeks afterward. Rankings usually wobble for a few days and settle.
Can I edit the site myself afterward?
Yes, and most of our clients do. The builder is drag and drop, and we run a training session after launch so you are not guessing.
Do you redesign sites you did not originally build?
That is most of our redesign work. We audit what you have, keep whatever is worth keeping, and rebuild the rest.
Can you keep my current design and just fix the problems?
Sometimes that is the right call. If the design still fits your brand and the trouble is speed, structure, or mobile layout, we will say so rather than sell you a rebuild you do not need. Our website redesign services page covers both paths.
