Web design for Chicago small businesses.

Fast, modern WordPress and WooCommerce sites for Chicago businesses, built by one developer from start to finish. I work remotely from Poland, with no local office and no middlemen.

The local market

Doing business in Chicago.

Chicago is a major hub for finance and trading (CME Group is headquartered here) and one of the country’s key transport crossroads, with O’Hare airport and a dense rail network. Manufacturing and food production are still big employers. Many local businesses are B2B companies that sell to other businesses and need a site that wins trust from procurement teams, not just consumers.

What I’d focus on

For a Chicago business, I’d start here.

B2B lead generation

Clear service pages, case studies and a short quote form that works. For B2B, a fast answer to “can you do this, and how fast” beats a clever slogan.

Catalogs and spec sheets

Manufacturers and distributors often need product catalogs, downloadable spec sheets or a WooCommerce store for trade customers. I build those on WordPress.

Automation behind the site

Quote requests can go straight into your CRM or a spreadsheet and get an instant reply, so leads don’t sit in an inbox.

Time zones

Working together from Chicago.

Chicago is on Central Time, 7 hours behind Poland for most of the year. In practice, 9 a.m. in Chicago is 4 p.m. in Poland. That leaves your morning for calls, and the rest of the work happens by email, often while you sleep.

You talk to me directly the whole way through. The process is the same as for every client: a free audit, a fixed-price proposal, a staging copy you review, and launch.

Chicago questions.

Can you build a B2B catalog or trade-only store?

Yes. WooCommerce can do product catalogs, request-a-quote flows, customer-specific pricing and trade-only areas, usually with one or two well-chosen plugins.

How do calls work with Central Time?

9 a.m. in Chicago is 4 p.m. in Poland, so a morning call on your side is straightforward.

Do you have an office in Chicago?

No. I’m Krzysztof Szymaniak, a freelance developer based in Poland, and I work with US businesses remotely, by email and video calls. There is no local office, and I won’t pretend there is.

How much does a website cost?

The same as anywhere else: a landing page from $900, a business site of up to 6 pages from $1,800, and WooCommerce stores from $4,500. You get a fixed price in writing first.
