what you're getting
With a custom, open-sourced, full-featured site by Javelin, here's what you're getting. We provide killer web design and development for startup companies and social enterprises. You need to get noticed and run hard right out of the gate. That means the company website has to convey instant wow. And it needs robust visibility in the major search engines. SEO optimization starts organically during construction of your new site.
We extend it with viral and paid advertising. Consider budgeting for them even before even sketching out your killer website. In making your startup website, our level of engagement can be custom-tailored. If you mainly need technical development, we can stick to that. Or we can create your entire website from scratch, including copywriting, visuals, brand development, design and promotion. Just tell us exactly what you need.

A modern website is a technology hub. For whatever we need, there's an app. In your case that means something called splash. Most likely you are launching into a highly competitive marketplace with some long-dominant players. You need to grab visitors by the throat and convert them into rabid customers dying to tell everybody about your killer product. Yet, splashiness can't distract from the takeaways we want to impart and the actions we want the customer to take. The recipe has to be mixed "just so." Along with splash apps, you'll also want to deploy some organic SEO heavy artillery, because otherwise your killer product might as well not even exist!
Enough about us, though. We'd really love to hear all about you and your exciting new Internet project.
It's not unusual for new clients to come to the table knowing pretty much what they want. That's cool.
Give yourself a present by investing in a polished, professional website today. It's the gift that keeps on giving.
We are fluent in the two leading open-source website construction systems for small business.
The nitty gritty
All you know is that you need a nice website because the old one sucks; or you've never even had one. It just has to work. You don't care how we're going to make it. But, for those relatively few clients who do care, see below. Maybe you're particular about the technology, and even have a preferred platform.
extendable workhorses
These custom websites are built to grow with your startup. They give us the freedom to design anything we can imagine, presenting your brand with inimitable distinction. Welcome to the dynamic world of open-source web development. It is a hotbed for enterprising innovation. Your website feeds off that. The website can evolve to become whatever you need it to become and do whatever you need it to do. The technology will never grow stale. And we'll always be there for you with outstanding support and service.
for commercial ventures
You need a killer website that makes a big first impression. Its technical performance needs to rock. Then, you need stellar SEO that pushes your killer website to number one in Google. This package delivers all three. And we may well soup it up even more with other advanced plugins. Social connectivity, for example, likely will be a top priority. Need an integrated e-mail marketing system? Almost nothing falls outside the possible. Frontend will be designed on the WordPress platform using the Divi builder supplemented liberally by the Smart Slider 3 custom HTML module. Critical backend plugins will include Yoast SEO and the WP Rocket performance tuning tool. Build a custom startup website that storms out of the gate and commands attention.
for social enterprises
You need a killer website to support a cause. It's the hub for an explosive movement. Followers need engaging and money needs raising. It's got to look kick-ass and be extendable. These are all reasons to consider Joomla. Out of the box it lives for this. Your social enterprise website will have many aspects of a membership website. There's a great selection of extensions for community building. We design the frontend with Yootheme Pro and Smart Slider 3. Backend additions will include Joomdonation for taking in money; JomSocial for your own social network; ACY Mailing for sophisticated e-blasts and newsletters; and Events Booking to manage your RSVP gatherings. Add a store. That's merely the beginning of the possible.

low-budget hosted builders
Let's be real. Not all startups are well-funded with a substantial budget for a killer website. Many a Microsoft has been founded in a garage, a kitchen or a dining room, or out of the back of a panel truck. For you there are the hosted DIY website builders. They use prefab templates with little customization possible. You'll have to live with whatever rudimentary apps are offered by the company's closed ecosystem. But there are no upfront costs. Pay just a modest monthly fee - albeit forever. Simplicity and reliability are other upsides. And these products are completely coding-free. Here are four popular econo solutions. If you need professional help with one of them, call for a quote.
Drag-and-drop builder known for hip, sleek templates. Favored by creatives for displaying and selling their work. If you like splashy and now, this might be the one. Good for image-heavy sites; so-so for text-heavy sites. Offers minimal customization options. New and improved admin interface, plus built-in tools for SEO and many more mandatories including e-commerce. Business plans start at $26 a month.
Omnipresent hosted website builder lets people who know less than nothing about websites create a website. Might be a little more difficult than Squarespace for some users. Has the greatest number of templates. Drag-and-drop layout system is more robust. For years was reputed to be not good for SEO, but the basic tools are there. Pricing runs with the pack. The Wix starter Business plan costs $18 a month.
Ultra-easy hosted builder targets extreme untechies who like having fewer choices. The company kept it simple by making it impossible to make even small changes to their templates. All homepages use one layout. Covers the usual related mandatories but on a barebones basis. Still, that might be just your ticket. A Business Premium plan costs $9 a month. Beware ad hoc service fees and surprise price hikes.
Perennially, wildly popular among people starting businesses on a shoestring. Built from the ground up for a business clientele. Their truly free plan makes them the best option if you don't want to spend even a penny on your business website. Great for very small businesses, but scales poorly. Under new owners, showing signs of atrophy and neglect, relative to hungrier competitors. Just $16 a month for the Professional plan

What we do is more like web branding. It pushes the envelope of conventional web design. Come to think now, let's feed that danged envelope into the shredder.
We stand apart from other local web designers in that many of our projects go beyond building a better website, to building a stronger brand. Sometimes for startups; other times for mature companies which have had some struggles; or find themselves facing new, tougher competition.
Javelin provides comprehensive, integrated digital marketing built outward from distinctive custom websites, informed by the best practices in branding, such that in building your new website we can cite a strategic rationale for every creative choice along the way.
We aren't into making sweeping, dogmatic proclamations about which web design philosophy reigns supreme over all pretenders. That's because style is plastic. Our favorite style is whatever we the agency and you the customer jointly determine stands the best chance of getting the best results.
No two projects are alike. So, no two projects cost the same. However, you can find some ballpark numbers on our pricing page. The ambition factor for startups varies so widely, they can fall into any price range.
