WebMyst is a web design company serving Chicago, IL. We build custom websites for small businesses — design, on-page SEO, hosting, security and speed from $50 a month, with nothing to pay upfront.

Chicago sits in Cook County and with a population around 2.7 million. Locally that means finance and trading, manufacturing, logistics and rail and healthcare — sectors with their own buying patterns and their own reasons a website succeeds or fails.

Chicago B2B sales cycles run through committees, and the website's job is to survive being forwarded to four people who were not on the original call. That means the value proposition has to hold up without a salesperson standing next to it.

Why websites win or lose in Chicago

Most businesses in Chicago are not losing work because their website is ugly. They are losing it because it takes five seconds to load on a phone, because it does not say what they charge, and because the third result down answered the question they did not. Those are fixable problems, and fixing them is cheaper than most owners assume.

The plan most clients choose

Everything, for $50 a month

A custom one to five page website, built and launched by a US team, with everything that keeps it running included. No upfront development fee, no minimum term, and you own the site, the domain and the code from day one — including if you leave.

Custom design and development

Designed and built for your business from scratch. Never a template with your logo dropped into it.

A 1 to 5 page website

Home, services, about, contact — whatever the five pages need to be for your business to get inquiries.

On-page SEO

Titles, descriptions, headings, structured data and internal linking done properly on every page, at build time.

Hosting

Fast US hosting and an SSL certificate included. Nothing separate to buy, nothing separate to manage.

Security

Monitoring, malware scanning, a firewall and same-day patching of anything critical.

Speed optimized

Built to load in under two seconds on a phone, which is where most of your visitors are.

Fully responsive

Tested on real phones, tablets and desktops, not just resized in a browser window.

Need more than five pages? Larger sites, online stores and anything with custom functionality are quoted per project, because no two are the same size. You get a fixed written price before anything starts — and what is excluded is listed as clearly as what is included.

Web design in Chicago: common questions

Who is the best web design company in Chicago, IL?

Judge any Chicago web design company on three things: how fast their own site loads on a phone, whether they publish prices, and whether they will show you sites they built that are still ranking today. WebMyst publishes all three, and works with businesses throughout Chicago, IL.

How much does a website cost in Chicago, IL?

Custom small business websites in the Chicago market typically run $3,000 to $10,000 upfront, with monthly maintenance on top. WebMyst charges $50 a month with no upfront build fee, which covers design and development, on-page SEO, hosting, security and speed optimization.

Do you work with businesses in Chicago?

Yes. We are based in Phoenix, Arizona and work with companies throughout Chicago, IL. You deal with the same person for the whole project rather than an account manager, every deliverable arrives the day it is finished, and you get a reply within one business day.

How does the process work?

A recorded discovery call, a written quote within two business days, design you review on a shared link, then a staging site you test on your own devices before launch. Two rounds of revisions are in the price, and you get a reply within one business day throughout.

Who builds websites for small businesses in Chicago?

WebMyst builds custom websites for small and mid-sized businesses in Chicago, including service businesses, professional practices and B2B companies. Every site is custom built rather than a template, and includes on-page SEO, hosting, security and speed optimization in the monthly price.

Do you work with finance and trading businesses in Chicago?

Finance and trading is one of the sectors we work with regularly around Chicago. We build the site around how that industry actually sells — the questions buyers ask, the proof they need, and the point in the process where they decide to call.
