Web Design Services

Website Design Services List (and Related Services)

Let’s look at specific services you could offer in this web design services list. Your personal experience and expertise will play a role in the services you choose to offer. Later in the article, we’ll look at a few options you could consider if you don’t have expertise in these areas.

Here are some potential answers if you’re trying to answer the question, “What services do web designers offer?”.

1. Ongoing Website Maintenance

Each client that hires you to design a custom website needs additional service at some point. Even if the website is built with a content management system (like WordPress) that allows the client to easily add and manage the content on their own, there will still be some maintenance needed at some point.

This maintenance could involve minor design or layout changes, new sections of the website, or other details that the client cannot handle on their own through a CMS.

We offer ongoing maintenance after a web design project in a few different ways,  For example, the packages would have a flat monthly fee and would entitle the client to specific things like priority support and a specific number of hours of work each month.

Offering maintenance as a package can be a great choice because it helps people plan for the unexpected

Maintenance packages can also be great for clients because it allows the client to know how much they should budget for ongoing expenses related to their website, and they know that you’ll be easy to reach whenever they need support.

2. WordPress Support

WordPress is such an incredibly popular content management system that a large percentage of new websites are being built on the platform. According to statistics, WordPress powers 34% of the internet, and that number is rising, which is why web designers use it as the basis for their platform

WordPress is an ideal CMS (content management system) for many small and medium-sized businesses, and everyone loves that it’s free. But WordPress users are bound to run into some issues that require a little bit of help.

The downside of a free CMS is that getting help and support can be challenging. There’s a free support forum, but getting answers to your questions can be hit or miss. Many clients want someone to do the work for them rather than spending hours reading through forums to find solutions.

Offering WordPress website support or WordPress web development services could be a lot like offering ongoing website maintenance, except that you’re specifically focusing on WordPress (and as a result, you’re branding yourself as a WordPress expert).  This WordPress support could be billed hourly, or you could offer maintenance packages with a flat monthly fee, like we discussed in the previous point.

3. Hosting

Your web design and development clients will need website hosting, and this is another service you can offer. Best of all, hosting produces ongoing monthly revenue, and as you add more clients, that hosting revenue will increase.

To offer web hosting to your clients, you don’t need to have and manage your own servers. You can easily get a reseller hosting account that will allow you to offer to host your clients without the need to manage the details yourself.

Before offering hosting for your clients, you’ll want to consider the time that will be required for providing support. Look at the details of the reseller hosting packages that you are considering and see if you would be responsible for providing all customer service to your clients. If it’s not worth your time, you might want to move on and skip this service. Part of this will depend on what you are able to charge for the hosting service.

4. Logo Design

Every business needs a logo, and many of your web design clients will also be looking for a logo designer. If you build a website for a startup, they’ll probably need a logo. If you’re doing a website redesign for a client with an existing business, this may be a good time for that client to consider updating their brand image with a new logo.

Logo design can work hand-in-hand with site design, so you can package the two services together, or you can offer each service separately.

Another reason to consider offering logo design as a service is that it can be very lucrative.

5. Graphic Design

While logo design is one aspect of graphic design, you could design plenty of other things for your clients, like business cards, brochures and marketing materials, labels, and more.

Clients who hire you to design a website may benefit from some of these other services, and you could even create packages that include things like a website, logo, brochures, etc.

6. Ad Design

Most of your web design clients will do advertising of some kind, and they may not have the capability to design those ads in-house. It could be banner ads used online, magazine ads, billboards, or any other type of advertising.

7. Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

SEO is a natural fit because if you create a website for a client, that client can get more value from their site if it’s effective at driving traffic from search engines.

Of course, there’s some overlap between the two services. As a web designer, you should create the website to be search engine friendly, but full-fledged digital marketing and SEO services can go much deeper. This may involve on-page SEO and creating pages or content that are optimized to rank for specific keywords, or it could involve off-page SEO and link building.

8. Social Media Management

Most businesses use social media in some capacity, but very few are maximizing the potential of social media. Entrepreneurs and small businesses often don’t have the time or manpower to effectively manage their social media profiles on their own, and that’s where you come in.

You could offer to help clients by managing their social profiles, which will free up their time for other things that are more important to their business. Many social media managers or virtual assistants will offer packages that include a specific number of posts to different social networks. For example, the client may pay you a monthly fee to manage their Facebook page and schedule two new posts per day.

Your design skills can also come in handy here. You can create images and graphics for use with your clients’ social profiles, and you can also design branded profile images that will help to make their profiles stand out.

9. Ad Management

Many businesses need help with setting up and managing online advertisements. There’s a huge demand for freelancers and agencies with expertise in Facebook ads and Google AdWords.

As an ad manager, you could create ads for your clients, set up the campaigns, continually test and manage the campaigns, and provide reports that show the results to your clients.

10. Copywriting

If you have writing skills, you could offer copywriting services to your clients. This would involve writing the copy or text for a landing page or sales page. This can be a very lucrative service because effective copywriting can have dramatic results in terms of the sales that it generates.

Since you will be working on the client’s website anyway, offering a service related to writing the text for these pages would be a natural fit.

11. Keyword Research

Earlier, I mentioned the possibility of offering SEO services. Keyword research is one important aspect of SEO that you could zero in on. Additionally, it’s easier to learn than some of the other skills covered in this article.

Keyword research is a critical aspect of SEO, but many of your clients will have no idea how to do it, or they won’t have the time to do their own keyword research.

Your keyword research services could involve identifying and suggesting the best keywords for your clients to target with their website and the content that they publish. For most of your clients, you may want to focus on low-competition keywords that give smaller sites a realistic chance to rank on the first page of Google.

12. Email Marketing

Email marketing Everyone hates SPAM, but clever email marketing can typically produces a very strong ROI (return on investment) , so this may be an area where your clients are willing and able to spend some money for a professional like yourself.

We can design HTML emails (or HTML email templates for your clients to use), as well as writing the text, designing images to be used in the emails, and even setting up and managing the campaigns.

13. Analytics

Like Data ? Well  data and analytics to provide insight into the effectiveness of your business. Of course, Google Analytics is a powerful free program that your clients can use, but GA can be a bit overwhelming and confusing. Some of your clients may be looking for a professional to help with interpreting the reports from Google Analytics and to implement any changes that are needed to improve the results.

It could be as simple as a consultation where you walk the client through the Google Analytics dashboard and explain things to them so they can pay attention to it going forward. Or, you could provide weekly or monthly reports with any relevant recommendations based on the data in those reports.

Final Thoughts on Website Services

As you can see, many different things could be offered aside from professional web design and web development services. These otherwebsite services can allow you to have more to offer to clients (and to make more money from each client) and also allow you to reach more clients. As you build up your client base and continue to add new services, your profit potential will continue to increase as well.
