Best web design agencies in Utah

Utah's agency scene follows the Wasatch Front, from Salt Lake City down through the Silicon Slopes tech corridor in Lehi and Provo, with a few design studios up in Park City. For a design-led brand and website for a tech or ecommerce company, Non-Linear Studio in Park City stands out; for Shopify or WordPress builds with a full growth program behind them, Big Red Jelly in Provo is a strong fit; and for B2B ecommerce on Magento, BigCommerce or Shopify, NuEthic in North Salt Lake specializes in exactly that. The other agencies on the list cover nonprofits, local service businesses and larger brand campaigns.

How we put this list together

We found candidates through directories and search, then checked each agency against its own website to confirm the site is current, web design or development is a real service, and the agency has a Utah location. This is not a paid ranking. Agencies are not ranked against each other, and we have no business relationship with any of them.

Utah web design agencies at a glance

The agencies

ThoughtLab (Salt Lake City)

ThoughtLab calls its Salt Lake City office on South Main Street its headquarters and original location, and its footer runs back to 1999. It also has offices in New York, Atlanta and San Francisco. Web design and development is one of four practices, covering UX, ecommerce, CMS development, web applications and even WebGL work, next to branding, digital marketing (social, SEO, paid media, email, PR) and content production. It does not name specific platforms on its location page. ThoughtLab suits mid-size and larger organizations that want a site and the campaigns around it handled by one creative team.

Third Sun (Salt Lake City)

Third Sun was founded in Salt Lake City in 2005 and works out of a shared workspace in Sugar House. It offers website design, branding and digital strategy, and it builds sites by hand rather than from templates, with guidance so clients can manage their own sites afterward. Its focus is nonprofits and local entrepreneurs, and its portfolio includes arts and environmental groups around Salt Lake. Its site points to Joomla certification for a co-founder, so ask if Joomla is still its main platform. Third Sun is a good fit for mission-driven organizations that want a small, personal team.

NuEthic (North Salt Lake)

NuEthic is a web design and development firm in North Salt Lake that leans heavily into ecommerce. It builds on Magento, Shopify, BigCommerce and WooCommerce, and it lists integration experience with business systems such as Salesforce, NetSuite, SAP, Workday and Microsoft Dynamics. Services also include digital marketing, analytics and usability, speed optimization and marketplace work. It calls out B2B, retail, marketplaces and city and county government websites.

Octiv Digital (Salt Lake City area)

Octiv Digital targets Salt Lake City businesses with web design and development, SEO, paid advertising and analytics. WordPress is its stated preferred platform, with WooCommerce, Shopify and BigCommerce for ecommerce, and it lists hosting partnerships and Google Ads partner status. Its project examples point to small businesses such as hearing care, real estate, financial and tax firms and towing companies. Its Salt Lake City page does not give a street address and uses a toll-free number, so confirm where the team is based and how meetings work. A fit for small businesses that want a WordPress site plus ongoing search and ads.

Big Red Jelly (Provo)

Big Red Jelly's headquarters is on North University Avenue in Provo, and it says it was founded in 2018.

It works with WordPress, WooCommerce, Shopify, Wix, HubSpot and others, and lists partner status with Shopify Plus and WooCommerce. Its case studies include pest control, roofing, painting, biotech and education. A strong option for Utah businesses that want one team to handle the brand, the site and the marketing.

Oozle Media (South Jordan)

Oozle Media is based along River Front Parkway in South Jordan, in the south Salt Lake Valley. It offers website design and development, PPC, SEO, social media and paid social, conversion optimization, call tracking and email marketing, and it notes Google Partner status. The industries it focuses on are specific: home services, beauty and trade schools, dentists and orthodontists, charter schools and Utah businesses generally. It does not list a website platform on its homepage. If you are in one of those sectors and lead volume is the main goal, Oozle is a sensible first call.

Non-Linear Studio lists an office on Bitner Road in Park City, alongside New York and Tallinn, Estonia, and states it was established in 2020.

It does not name build platforms on its contact page. Non-Linear suits funded startups and consumer brands that care most about distinctive, high-end visual design.

How to choose a web design agency in Utah

Decide what the site must do before you start calling agencies. A Lehi SaaS company needs product marketing pages, fast iteration and probably a headless or Webflow setup. A Park City lodging or outdoor business needs mobile booking that handles seasonal traffic. A home services company in the valley mainly needs speed, reviews and local search. Our guide on how to choose a website platform will help you weigh WordPress, Webflow, Shopify and custom builds first.

Questions to ask every agency:

• Who owns the site, the hosting account and the domain?
• Which platform do you recommend for us, and why that one?
• Who maintains the site after launch, and on what terms?
• How will you protect search rankings during a redesign? (See how to redesign a website without losing SEO.)
• What exactly is included in the quote?

The Utah angle: the Silicon Slopes area is full of startups and ecommerce brands that grow fast. If that is you, ask how the agency handles a site that needs to scale, such as adding product lines, locales or a headless front end later, so you do not rebuild in two years.

What a website costs

Utah pricing follows scope. Small-business sites from independent studios commonly start in the low thousands, while custom builds with ecommerce, integrations or large content migrations run into five or six figures. Agencies with research and strategy phases sit at the higher end, and monthly care or marketing plans add an ongoing cost.
