Key Web’s SEO service plans can help you continue ranking high on Google even after the initial launch.
Custom Website Redesign
Stay ahead of the curve by redesigning your website every few years to stay in touch with modern designs.
As beautiful as your website is now, in several years it can become outdated. If you want your website to stay relevant, it needs to keep up with the evolving digital world. You could lose customers to a competitor with a better design if yours is lagging.
Responsive Web Design
Cater to your more tech-savvy online visitors with a responsive website design that’s mobile and tablet-friendly.
As technology gets more and more advanced, people are turning to their mobile devices for their daily content consumption. You could miss out on a lot of potential business if your website doesn’t show up on phones or tablets.
Rank in the Search Results with Initial SEO
A quality website design is essential to reaching customers online, but that’s not all you’ll need if you want to get ahead of your competitors.
Most companies focus on the look and feel of their website, but Key Web goes beyond the aesthetics. Our custom websites are created with initial Search Engine Optimization (SEO) built into the design and copy. Our SEO specialists use foundational techniques to create content that is search-engine friendly and data-driven to increase ROI.
Initial SEO can help more people find your business when looking for your services. 92% of all search queries are long-tailed keywords. When your website is launched with SEO techniques included, you can rank higher in the search results right from the start.
A higher Google search result ranking means more people will find your website.
And this is just the beginning. You can continue to climb the ranks after the initial boost from launch with our SEO maintenance plans that enhance your online presence and bring more people in the door.

Common Website Design Questions
Below are some of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to designing a custom website.
How Much Does it Cost to Design a Website?
The cost of a custom website design varies from company to company.
The price will depend on the complexity and number of pages on your site. For example, a simple brochure-style website might only have 1-3 pages and can take less time and resources to complete than an eCommerce site with multiple product categories that has more complex functionality.
We offer our discovery session as a standalone service to help you determine the scope of your project. It’s a cost-effective, minimal process that can be essential to outlining the details of your website design and marketing strategy.
How Can I Get My Website On Google?
Your website will be designed with initial Search Engine Optimization (SEO). This means we optimize the content and site to be search-engine friendly based on industry research. This is a great first step in generating a solid foundation for your online presence.
Initial SEO is not a guarantee of first-page rankings. But it helps increase your chances of visibility as opposed to a website design without any SEO strategy applied.
For that reason, it is recommended that you look into an SEO maintenance plan that can take your website to the next level against your competitors. Visit our SEO page to learn more about these plans.
Can You Write Content for My Website?
Absolutely!
A website is only as good as the content that is on it. Your customers will read about your company to see if you are a good fit for them.
Our copywriters use traditional conversion-centered practices to promote your services, the features they offer, the benefits of those features and why you’re the right company for the job.
How Much Control Do I Have Of My Website?
When we finish designing your website, we will train you on how to operate it so you can make updates whenever you like.
Our training session will be recorded so you can always refer back to the video if you forget anything.
We will always be a phone call or email away if you do not feel comfortable making updates to your website.
Charges may vary depending on the scope of the request, but typically we will not charge for minor content updates that need to be made.
