Web design / Chicago, IL

A web design company for Chicago and nearby counties

Lemurian Studios designs and builds websites, brand identities and 3D animation for businesses in Chicago and across the Chicago metro. If you are looking for website designers in Chicago, Illinois, this page explains how we work with businesses there.

Web design across the Chicago metro

From Chicago itself out to the smallest towns in the metro, every business gets the same service. Being outside the city limits costs you nothing here.

Our Chicago service area starts in Cook County, the most populated county in the Chicago metro, and runs through the metro's other most populated counties: DuPage County, Lake County, Will County, Kane County, McHenry County, Kendall County and DeKalb County in Illinois; and Lake County and Porter County in Indiana. Wherever your business is in that ring, the process is the same. The Chicago metro has 13 counties in all; these are the ten with the most residents in the Census Bureau's 2024 estimates. That takes in places like Naperville, Elgin, Aurora, Joliet, Evanston and Gary.

City neighborhoods and the suburbs

Chicago customers often search by neighborhood, such as Lincoln Park, Pilsen or Wicker Park, and suburban customers search by town, such as Naperville, Evanston or Joliet. If you have a storefront, your neighborhood belongs in your page title and first screen, not just "Chicago."

The metro also crosses into northwest Indiana, through Lake and Porter County, home to Gary, Hammond and Valparaiso. If you serve that side of the line, say so, along with any state licensing that applies there.

Being found by Chicago customers

When someone in Chicago needs what you sell, they look online first. Without a site you are invisible at that moment, and with a good one you are the obvious choice.

What we build for Chicago businesses

  • Website design: websites made to order, built around your business and to your liking.
  • Small business web design: our specialty is small business, bringing them the visibility that wins customers.
  • Brand identity: building the company into a real brand through custom logos, colors and type.
  • 3D design and animation: high-end 3D and motion that get attention and keep people on the site.
  • Calendar booking: a live calendar on the site lets customers pick their own slot, which means fewer phone calls and more hours back in your day.

Working on Central Time, we start with a conversation, agree a written plan, share the site as it comes together, and hand it over with a walkthrough.

Guides for common Chicago business types

A question from Chicago businesses

Should my site target Chicago or my neighborhood?

Both, in different places. Use your neighborhood where customers decide whether you are close enough, such as the title, the first screen and the contact section, and use Chicago for the wider service description.
