Web Design / SEO / Conversion / Technology
The Problem
Your website should do more.
Your website isn’t just a digital brochure. It’s often the first place a customer decides whether your business looks credible, whether you can solve their problem, and whether they should contact you instead of someone else.
Too many businesses are relying on websites that are outdated, difficult to manage, slow on mobile, hard to find in Google, or simply don’t represent the quality of the company behind them.
A great website should make your business easier to find, easier to understand, and easier to choose.
Common problems we solve
- Outdated or generic design
- Poor mobile experience
- Slow page performance
- Low search visibility
- Weak messaging
- Confusing navigation
- No clear conversion path
- Template or DIY limitations
- Difficult-to-manage technology
- Developer dependency
What We Build
Websites for where you’re going.
Every Argent Foundry website is built around the business, not around a template.
We determine what your customers need to see, what Google needs to understand, what actions the website needs to generate, and what technology needs to exist behind it.
Marketing Websites
Professional websites designed to communicate your value, establish credibility, support your marketing, and generate qualified opportunities.
Local Business Websites
Service-focused websites built around local search visibility, service areas, calls, forms, reviews, and the information customers need before choosing a local company.
Ecommerce Websites
Online stores that make products easy to discover, understand and purchase, with the technology, email and marketing systems needed to support growth.
Custom Website Development
When an off-the-shelf website isn’t enough, we develop custom functionality around how your business actually operates.
Membership & Association Websites
Large-scale websites designed to organize substantial amounts of information, serve multiple audiences, and connect with membership, CRM or operational systems.
Landing Pages
Focused, conversion-oriented pages for advertising campaigns, lead generation, promotions, events and specific offers.
CRM & Platform Integrations
Connect your website with CRMs, email platforms, forms, customer databases, APIs and the other systems behind your business.
Ongoing Development
Businesses change. Websites should be able to change with them. We remain available when you need new pages, features, integrations or improvements.
The Argent Formula
A website that works.
Design + Conversion + Search + Technology
Great web design isn’t one discipline.
The design has to create trust. The messaging has to communicate. The architecture has to make sense. The website has to work on every screen. Search engines have to understand it. And the technology has to support what your business needs to do next.
We bring those elements together into one website.
Beautiful on the outside. Technical where it counts.
SEO Is Built In
A beautiful website means more when people can actually find it.
SEO should not be something somebody bolts onto a website six months after it launches.
Search is considered from the beginning.
Before we design the page structure, we look at what your customers search for, how your services should be organized, what markets you serve, how competitors are positioned, and how search engines need to understand the relationship between your pages.
That influences the architecture of the website itself.
Every website starts with a search-friendly foundation
Search-informed site architecture
We organize services, locations and supporting content around the way customers actually search.
Technical SEO
Clean crawlable pages, indexation controls, canonicals, sitemaps, metadata, redirects and other technical fundamentals are handled correctly.
On-page optimization
Titles, headings, copy, internal links and page structure help search engines understand what each page is actually about.
Local SEO foundations
For local businesses, we consider service areas, location relevance, Google Business Profile integration, reviews and local search intent.
Schema & structured data
We implement appropriate structured data to give search engines additional context about your business and content.
Performance & mobile optimization
Fast, responsive websites create a better experience for visitors and a stronger technical foundation for search.
Content that can grow
We build an architecture that can support future service pages, location pages, case studies, resources and SEO campaigns without rebuilding the entire website.
Design and SEO shouldn’t fight each other.
We’ve seen businesses get trapped between two bad choices: a beautiful website that nobody finds, or an SEO website that’s painful to look at.
We don’t accept that tradeoff. We build for both.
Our Process
From strategy to launch.
- 01
Discover
We learn about your business, customers, competitors, goals, existing website and technical requirements.
We also identify what’s currently working so a redesign doesn’t accidentally destroy valuable search rankings, traffic, content or backlinks.
- 02
Strategize
Before designing screens, we determine the website architecture, primary conversion paths, SEO opportunities, page requirements, messaging direction and technical plan.
The blueprint comes before the paint.
- 03
Design
We create a visual system around your brand and audience, not whatever design trend happens to be popular that month.
Desktop and mobile experiences are considered together, with attention to typography, imagery, hierarchy, usability and conversion.
- 04
Develop
We turn the design into a fast, responsive website and build whatever functionality the project requires, from straightforward marketing pages to custom integrations and complex content systems.
- 05
Optimize & Launch
Before launch, we test functionality, mobile behavior, forms, redirects, metadata, analytics, tracking and technical SEO.
Then we launch carefully and monitor what happens next.

The design of my website was outstanding. It has helped me get my Art in to the public eye and it has helped me get my Art into an Austin Gallery. Thanks Argent Foundry web design team.

We Can Build the Complicated Stuff, Too
Sometimes a website is really a business system.
Not every project fits neatly into a five-page marketing website.
We’ve worked with businesses and organizations that require extensive site architecture, rental inventory systems, CRM integrations, member functionality, ecommerce, custom databases, automation and specialized workflows.
That’s where the Development part of Web Design & Development matters.
If your project requires something unusual, we’d rather understand the problem first than tell you which plugin you need.
Tell us what you’re trying to build →Web Design for Austin-Area Businesses
Built here. For businesses growing here.
Argent Foundry is based in Cedar Park and works with businesses throughout Austin and the surrounding Central Texas communities.
We understand that a website for a local business has a different job than a national brand website.
It needs to establish trust quickly, explain exactly what you do, communicate where you work, connect naturally with your Google Business Profile and local SEO strategy, and make it incredibly easy for someone to call, request a quote or schedule a service.
We design websites for businesses throughout Cedar Park, Austin, North Austin, Leander, Round Rock, Georgetown, Pflugerville and the surrounding area, while also working with brands and organizations across the country.
Looking for a local web design partner? Let’s talk →Why Argent Foundry
More than a web design company.
Strategic Approach
We don’t start by asking which template you like. We start by understanding the business and what the website needs to accomplish.
Technically Capable
Simple when simple is appropriate. Custom when custom is required. We can handle integrations, functionality and complex website architecture when the project demands it.
SEO Focused
Search architecture and technical SEO are considered during the build, not after the website is finished.
Built for Conversion
Calls, forms, purchases, bookings and other meaningful actions influence the way pages are structured and designed.
You Own It
Your website and business accounts should belong to your business.
Real Support
You aren’t disappearing into a giant agency ticketing system when you need something.
We Don’t Charge You Just to Keep the Lights On
We believe our ongoing relationship should be about improving and growing the business, not collecting a fee simply because your website exists. When you need development or growth work, we’re here.
Frequently Asked Questions
Web design, without the usual headaches.
How much does a custom website cost?
It depends on the size and complexity of the project. A straightforward local business website and a large custom platform with CRM integrations are fundamentally different builds. After learning what you need, we’ll recommend an appropriate scope and give you clear pricing before work begins.
Will my new website be optimized for SEO?
Yes. Every website we build includes a search-friendly technical and structural foundation. That includes considerations such as site architecture, page structure, metadata, mobile performance, crawlability, internal linking, redirects and appropriate schema.
Ongoing SEO campaigns, such as content development, location expansion, Google Business Profile management and competitive search growth, can be added when appropriate.
Can you preserve my existing Google rankings during a redesign?
That’s always part of the plan.
Before rebuilding an established website, we identify important URLs, organic traffic, backlinks, rankings and existing content. We then create a migration strategy designed to preserve that value through appropriate URL decisions and redirects.
No responsible agency can guarantee rankings won’t fluctuate during a migration, but SEO should absolutely be considered before the old website is replaced.
Do you build websites for local businesses?
Absolutely. Local businesses are a major part of what we do. We design websites around service visibility, geographic relevance, Google Business Profile strategy, reviews and lead generation, not simply aesthetics.
Do you only work with businesses in Austin?
No. We’re based in Cedar Park and work extensively throughout the Austin area, but we build websites and digital systems for businesses and organizations throughout the United States.
Can you integrate our CRM or other software?
In many cases, yes. We can work with APIs, CRMs, email platforms, forms, automation systems and custom workflows. We’ll evaluate the specific platform and requirements during discovery.
Can you redesign our existing website?
Yes. We can rebuild an outdated website while preserving valuable content and, when appropriate, existing SEO equity.
Who owns the website when it’s finished?
You do.
We believe clients should own their websites, domains and critical business accounts.
Do you charge a monthly website maintenance fee?
We don’t believe in charging clients indefinitely simply because their website exists.
We build sites to be stable and manageable, and we’re available when you need changes, development or improvements. Our ongoing work is focused on things that create value for the business.
