Web development · Every stack · New York
A stage set looks great from the front row and falls over when you lean on it. We build the other kind: clean code, real foundations, and a structure your team can live in for years. WordPress, Webflow, Next.js, Laravel, or whatever the job calls for.
Free 30-minute call. You'll leave with a recommended stack and a ballpark number, whether or not you hire us.

Same page, whichever stack builds it.
The stack
We don't have a house platform to push. We pick what fits your team, your budget and the next five years. Click any logo to see when we'd use it, and when we honestly wouldn't.
Also: AWS, Microsoft Azure, Salesforce, Twilio, Klaviyo, Figma handoff, and most things with a documented API. If you run it, we can connect to it.
Logos are trademarks of their owners, shown to identify the technologies we work with. No endorsement implied.
The stack picker
Three questions. We'll show you what we'd recommend on the call, and why. Sometimes the answer is the cheaper option, and we'll say so.
Already have a site?
Not every tired website needs a rebuild. Some need a tune-up and a firm word with their plugins. Tick whatever sounds familiar and we'll give you our honest first read.
Our first read
A first read, not a diagnosis. Send us the URL and we'll look at the code before anyone quotes you.
Get a real audit →What we build
Pick one to see what's included and what we usually build it with.
In every build
No upsells, no "enterprise tier." These ship with every site, from a five-page Webflow build to a custom app. Tap one to see why it matters.
How it goes
Fixed scope, fixed price, and working software you can click long before launch day.
Weeks shown for a typical custom build. A marketing site runs 4–8 weeks end to end.

Selected work
Our difference
Ownership
The repo is yours
Code, hosting, domain and analytics, all in accounts registered to you from day one.
No lock-in
Any developer can pick it up
Mainstream stacks, readable code, written docs. Leaving us should be easy. That's why people stay.
Visibility
A demo every two weeks
Working software on a staging link, not a status update that says "on track."
FAQ
The one that fits your team and your next five years. If your marketing team publishes every week, that's usually WordPress or Webflow. If you have developers or need custom features, usually Next.js or Laravel. Try the stack picker above, then we'll confirm on the call.
Yes, often. We start with a code audit so we know what we're inheriting, then tell you honestly whether to repair it or rebuild it. Sometimes repairing is the smarter call.
You do, completely. The repository, hosting, domain and every third-party account are registered in your name from day one, not transferred at the end.
Not for new builds. We write clean theme and component code so the site stays fast and your editors get fields built for your content. We're happy to maintain or fix an existing page-builder site, though.
We set it up in your name on a host that fits the stack, such as WP Engine or Kinsta for WordPress, Vercel for Next.js, or your own cloud account for apps. Or we manage it for you on a care plan.
Yes. WCAG 2.2 AA is our baseline, not an add-on. We test with keyboards and screen readers, not just an automated scanner.
Four to eight weeks for a marketing site, eight to fourteen for a custom build, and twelve to twenty-four for a web app. Content that's ready on day one is the biggest thing that speeds it up.
Thirty to ninety days of support are included, depending on the project. After that, a monthly care plan covers updates, backups, monitoring and small changes. Or we hand you everything and you run it yourself.
Start a project
A new site, a rebuild, an app, or a mess somebody else left behind. We'll come back within a day with a recommended stack, a rough timeline and a ballpark number.
We'll reply to within one business day with a first take on the stack and scope. Add info@nycwebdesignstudio.com to your contacts so it doesn't land in spam.
