Web Design · Detroit, MI

Detroit web design for suppliers, rehabbers, and the businesses in between.

An auto supplier's site is read by a sourcing team. A contractor's is read by a homeowner in a 1920s house. Both want facts first.

The Big Three are headquartered in Metro Detroit, and a long chain of suppliers, engineering firms, and tooling shops sells to them. Those buyers screen vendors online before an RFQ ever goes out, and they look for the same things every time: certifications, capabilities, equipment, capacity, locations. A design built for that reader puts each capability on its own page and makes the quality documentation easy to find. Our manufacturing work starts from that list rather than from a hero image.

Neighborhood businesses face a different reader. Detroit's median home was built around 1946, according to the Census Bureau, so electricians, plumbers, roofers, and rehab contractors are explaining old-house problems all day — knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized pipe, basements that take water. Median household income is about $39,200, and customers compare carefully. A site that names the problem, shows the work, and publishes a price range where it can earns trust that a slogan cannot.

Downtown and Midtown add a third audience: health care vendors near Henry Ford, the Detroit Medical Center, and Wayne State, and the startups and service firms that followed Rocket downtown. Whatever the audience, every build is hand-coded and priced by page count — up to 10 pages for $1,500, up to 20 for $2,250 — with SEO, content writing, lead capture, online booking, and a year of support included. See the pricing page.

Businesses online

Nationally, 83% of small businesses now have a website — which still leaves roughly one in six with none (Clutch small business survey, August 2025). No city-level figure exists; this is the national picture.

Web Design in Detroit: questions we hear.

We're a Tier 2 supplier. What does an OEM buyer want from our site?

Certifications you hold, processes and materials, equipment and capacity, locations, and a named contact for quotes. Sourcing teams build shortlists from that information, and a site that hides it behind a contact form tends to get skipped.

Should a Detroit contractor publish prices?

Where the work is predictable, yes — a starting price or a typical range. Customers here compare carefully, and a range filters out mismatched leads before they cost you a site visit.

Can you redesign our site without losing what already ranks?

Yes. We map every existing URL and redirect it before launch, so the pages that bring in work today keep doing it.
