Web Development Companies in Chicago: How to Сhoose a Business Partner

Chicago is the administrative center of Illinois that has an excellent industrial, commercial, and financial sector, as well as transportation, cultural, and scientific sectors. Taking into account the strengths of the city, local developers actively work with leading enterprises and gain tremendous experience.

It should be noted that the increase of web development agencies in Chicago is accompanied by the fact that the offices of Salesforce, Google, CareerBuilder, Orbitz, Groupon, Redbox, Motorola are located here. The presence of technology universities is another reason why Chicago has strong web development professionals.

How to Choose a Website Development Company in Chicago

Today, businesses are actively doing things online - they can tap into new markets, discover more opportunities, build a loyal customer base, and finally reduce the cost of customer engagement. Brands accomplish all this with a well-designed website. But designing it is a complex task and requires the right approach and proven methods. Given the fact that it's the team that is the key to success, choosing a web development company must be approached with great caution.

Above in the ranking, you can see dozens of different agencies. To find the perfect one for your project, pay attention to the following aspects.

Categories

Finding a firm is complicated by the fact that agencies offer different solutions. For example, one may specialize in a particular technology, where it has the most expertise, while another may specialize in multiple spheres.

Classification of IT teams:

  • Template-based development. Some agencies offer template-based website development. The advantage of such solutions is that the business gets a finished product as quickly as possible. This method is suitable for those who want to get a resource quickly on a low budget. The disadvantage here is that such a product will be non-unique, with a minimal set of features;
  • Web development from scratch. Such solutions require more time and knowledge from web development specialists. Everything has to be taken into account - the target audience (TA), competitors, and more. That's why the team always employs business analysts and marketers, who study the business from all sides, process the information, and pass it on to other experts. Based on such data, developers and designers create a website that will bring profit to the business;
  • E-commerce development. There are website development companies in Chicago that specialize in e-commerce development. Such organizations have extensive experience with e-commerce platforms, payment gateways, and other e-commerce-related solutions. A business that orders such type of a website can assume that the future resource will not be limited to just products and a shopping cart. This is where developers offer more complex systems including integrations with CRM, social networks, and marketplaces;
  • Full-service agencies. Such agencies consist of several departments (development, design, management, testing, etc.) and offer a wide range of services. And they create not only websites but also a variety of mobile applications, unique features, design, and much more. If you need all-inclusive services, this type of agency can become a great option.

Why hire a web development agency in Chicago?

A large number of design and web development experts are located in Chicago. This is due to the fact that leading technology universities are located throughout the state, as well as in the city itself. Chicago's highly skilled professionals offer internationally competitive services.

What's more, developers, who have worked in a particular environment for many years, have gained in-depth knowledge of the local market. This is especially true for the state's dominant sectors (which we talked about at the beginning of this article).

Web Development Company Services & Their Prices

The main criteria, used by website developers in Chicago to evaluate their work, are project complexity, team composition, modifications, edits, and maintenance. The average price for services ranges from $100 per hour.

Of course, in the rating above, you can see offers below this amount. However, you should not forget that the final cost will depend on your requirements and the features of the website.

If you want more information on the total price of your project, you need to contact the agency of your choice directly. After listening to your ideas, requirements, and goals, the agency will most likely be able to preliminarily estimate the required budget for the project.

Top 6 Tips on Choosing a Web Development Company in Chicago

Developing a website can be compared to building a house because the foundation is important in the design of the two options. Otherwise, the house/website won't last long.

In the case of website development, the team of web developers has always been and remains the fundamental element, so you should approach it with maximum responsibility. We will simplify your task by giving you top recommendations, which shouldn't be neglected, as follows:

  • Portfolio. No other document will be as valuable as the development team's portfolio. Case studies in the portfolio will help you understand how well specialists in the team can build high-quality websites. Moreover, a portfolio will tell you more about the skills, abilities, and weaknesses of the company than its specialists themselves;
  • Reviews. Do your research on how good your chosen business partner's rankings are in reviews of its previous clients. Our website specializes in reviewing IT companies, so you can find plenty of useful and reliable information here. Moreover, you want to ask the agency to provide their client contacts to you so you can talk to the latter directly;
  • Website. It will be quite suspicious if your potential partner does not have a functional, attractive, and user-friendly website. Thus, you want to pay attention to the design of the resource;
  • Communication. To understand that the team of experts is interested in your project, you can evaluate the speed of response to your emails/messages. Small agencies that do not have their own sales department, respond within 24-48 hours;
  • Results. Ask about the results of the agency in its previous projects and how they have achieved them;
  • Team. Ask who exactly will be working on your project and what skills and knowledge each person has individually. For example, your team should at least have the following specialists: a business analyst, developers (front-end and back-end), a designer, a QA tester, a project manager, etc.

What questions to ask at the interview?

The interview is one of the main steps in searching for the best web development candidate. Before scheduling an appointment, make sure you have chosen the right type of web development company - for this, first write down your requirements. Based on them, draw conclusions about what kind of a company you need for your project and what services it should offer.

As for the interview questions, be sure to ask the following ones:

  • What can you tell me about your most recent projects? Which of them do you consider the most successful? Why?
  • Were there any projects similar to mine in your practice?
  • How do you achieve great results?
  • How does your development process go?
  • What will be the approach to my project?
  • How long will the project take to complete and how do you form the required budget?
  • How many specialists will be working on my project? Will I be able to meet them personally?
  • What is my role in the project? Who will inform me about the results? How will he/she/they do it?
  • What additional services can you offer other than website development? SEO?
  • Social media promotion?
  • What are your main values?

Conclusions

Chicago is a city that is in the top 10 most developed cities in the U.S. IT sphere. Therefore, businesses have a high chance of finding top-notch professionals here, ready to implement any idea in terms of complexity. Moreover, the cost of services in Chicago will be much lower than, say, in San Francisco or Washington. So, all you have to do is consider our recommendations and choose from the rating of the best-suited candidates.

We wish you the best of luck with your project!
