What we build
A website should fit the business behind it.
Website design in Portland covers different kinds of work. A professional practice needs clear service information and dependable intake paths. A product company may need accounts, integrations and custom functionality. We recommend the platform after understanding the job.
Webflow websites
Marketing sites built from reusable components and content collections. Editors can add case studies, update services and publish new pages without rebuilding the underlying layout.
WordPress websites
Custom themes and content structures for businesses with substantial publishing needs, including physician pages, service libraries and editorial workflows that change regularly.
Custom web development
Portals, booking systems, mapping tools, data interfaces and integrations built when standard CMS features cannot carry the functionality. BatchGeo is one example of this work.
Ecommerce
Shopify and Shopify Plus storefronts with product catalogs, membership rules, account integrations and checkout flows shaped around how customers actually purchase.
Shopify developmentWebsite redesign
Rework information architecture, content and visual direction with a plan for existing URLs, internal links, search traffic and the parts of the website people already use.
Website redesign servicesTargeted fixes and maintenance
Improve a slow template, repair forms or make a CMS easier to edit when the problem does not require replacing the whole website.
Client feedback
What clients have said.
“The Slide Factory is one of those companies you don't often have the privilege of working with. It's not just that they do high-quality work, listen to the client, meet your deadlines, and bring insights that may not have been on your radar.”
“Wow, I loved the finished product. It just worked but also I was able to go through the different iterations so easily because the guys at the Slidefactory were so professional in their process.”
“I had a fantastic experience working with Mark at The Slide Factory. He was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, asking thoughtful questions to ensure every detail was just right.”
How we work
Decide what the site needs before designing pages.
- 01
Discovery
Review the business, audiences, current site, search traffic, important content and systems that need to connect. Define the pages and functionality required for launch.
- 02
Design
Work through the sitemap and wireframes, then develop the visual direction and page components. Navigation and content priorities are established before detailed interface polish.
- 03
Development
Build the CMS or application and its integrations, with responsive layouts, technical SEO, performance and content editing requirements addressed as part of the implementation.
- 04
Launch
Test forms, mobile behavior, redirects and analytics, publish the site and hand it over with access and editing guidance. Post-launch support is usually one month.
Design and engineering
Portland web development, built with the design.
As a Portland web design company, we design the public experience and build the systems behind it. Our Portland web development work covers CMS templates, integrations, portals and custom applications, and content editors, customers and internal systems all have needs that affect the architecture.
Build for search
Core Web Vitals, optimized media, schema markup, useful internal links, on-page SEO and redirect planning are incorporated into the build. Ongoing SEO is separately scoped.
Fix before rebuilding
A site with slow load times may need heavy scripts or images repaired. A drop following migration may require redirect and indexing corrections. We assess the source of the problem first.
Keep ownership clear
Your organization owns the completed site and code. We set up editable content tools and show your team how to operate them.
Design for your visitors
Mobile layout, navigation, forms and the path to contacting or purchasing are reviewed against what a real visitor needs to do.

FAQs
Before work begins.
How much does web design cost in Portland?
It depends on the number of templates, content, CMS configuration, integrations and custom features. We provide a written estimate after reviewing the scope and current site where applicable.
How long does a website take?
The calendar depends on content readiness, approvals, design depth and integrations. We define milestones during discovery rather than applying one timeline to every project.
Which website platform do you recommend?
Webflow works for editable marketing sites, WordPress for content-rich publishing, Shopify for commerce and custom technology for applications and complex integrations. Your team’s operating needs determine the choice.
Is SEO included in web design?
Technical SEO foundations are included: mobile performance, structured data, page optimization, analytics and redirect planning. An ongoing SEO program is separate.
What is the difference between a web designer and a web developer in Portland?
Design establishes structure, communication, appearance and user interactions. Development builds the CMS, responsive behavior, integrations and application logic. SLIDEFACTORY provides both in one project team.
Can you improve our existing website without rebuilding it?
Yes. We review slow pages, confusing CMS workflows, faulty forms and redirect or indexing problems. A focused repair may address the issue without a redesign.
Can you redesign our site while protecting its search traffic?
We inventory ranking pages, preserve valuable content, plan redirects and test the new site before and after launch. Rankings can still change, so we monitor the move. See website redesign services.
Do you work outside Portland?
Yes. We work across Beaverton, Hillsboro, Sherwood and Gresham, and in Vancouver, Washington, as well as with clients nationally.
Who owns the website?
You own the completed site and code. Your staff can edit routine content using the CMS we set up.
What happens after launch?
We usually provide one month of post-launch support. Continued updates and technical care can be scoped through website maintenance.
