Urbandale, IA · Polk & Dallas counties

Urbandale web design that works as hard as your business

Urbandale sits on the northwest side of the metro, with busy commercial stretches along Hickman Road, 86th Street and Douglas Avenue and quick access to I-35/80. Plenty of established, family-run businesses here have loyal customers and websites that haven't been touched in years.

Established businesses, outdated websites

A lot of Urbandale businesses grew on word of mouth. That still matters, but today even a referral gets Googled before they call. If your site looks abandoned, a warm lead can go cold in seconds.

A redesign doesn't have to throw away what you've built. We keep your name, your reputation and any content worth keeping, and rebuild it as a modern, mobile-friendly site with proper 301 redirects, so you don't lose the search visibility you already have.

How Urbandale customers search

These are the kinds of searches a Urbandale business should be ready for:

  • Brand searches from referrals checking you out before they call
  • “[service] Urbandale” for auto, trades and B2B services
  • Searches along the Hickman Road and 86th Street corridors
  • B2B searches from buyers vetting suppliers and manufacturers

Urbandale web design FAQ

Will I lose my Google rankings if I redesign?

Not if it's done carefully. We map your old pages to new ones with 301 redirects, keep the content that performs, and resubmit your sitemap to Google.

Can you just fix my current site instead of rebuilding it?

Sometimes. If your platform is solid, a refresh plus SEO cleanup can be enough. We'll tell you honestly which option makes more sense.

Do you build websites for B2B companies in Urbandale?

Yes. B2B sites need the same basics (speed, clarity, easy contact) plus things like capability pages, spec sheets and quote-request forms.
