What Our Clients Say
See how other small business owners transformed their revenue with a professional website.
“I run a company in the aviation sector, and it's critical that we have no downtime since we may need to assist an airline or leasing company at any time of the day or night. Claremont Software has done an amazing job in maintaining our private cloud solutions, ensuring our uptime while also keeping our costs as low as possible. Every time we have had a question, or encountered an issue, Claremont has responded amazingly quickly, and has always solved the problem the first time around - this is fairly rare in my experience. I couldn't recommend Claremont more highly, and I'm sure we'll be working with them for years to come.”
Mark Hadding
“This has been a breath of fresh air. I have operated 6 different companies and have worked with many different website/SEO companies. Claremont has been the best overall by far. The ease of working with them, clear instructions on what my tasks are to help them perform for us, and overall performance is unmatched. I would recommend Claremont to anyone. By far the best I've worked with in a long time. However, if you are competing with any of my companies I'd prefer you don't use them because they're too good!”

Serving Chicago and Surrounding Areas
Chicago is the economic engine of the Midwest — the Windy City, the City of Big Shoulders, home to the global headquarters of McDonald's, United Airlines, Kraft Heinz, Mondelez, Motorola Solutions, and Exelon, alongside powerhouses like Boeing's operations hub and a tech corridor anchored by Google, Salesforce, and TransUnion. More than thirty Fortune 500 companies call Illinois home, and a massive share of them operate from Chicago proper. That corporate firepower sets the standard for every business in the metro, from a two-person design studio in Pilsen to a general contractor in Edison Park. Chi-Town customers research online before they call, and a professional website is the minimum it takes to be in the conversation.
The city's cultural calendar is unmatched in scale and search volume. Lollapalooza takes over Grant Park every summer with 170-plus acts across eight stages, while the Chicago Blues Festival, Taste of Chicago, and Chicago Jazz Festival draw hundreds of thousands of visitors to the lakefront. The Art Institute of Chicago, the Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium, and the Museum of Science and Industry anchor a world-class museum scene. The University of Chicago, Northwestern, DePaul, UIC, and Loyola bring more than 100,000 students into the metro who search on their phones first. Second City, Steppenwolf Theatre, and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra keep the cultural traffic flowing year-round. If your Chicago business doesn't show up on Google when these residents, visitors, and students search for services nearby, you're losing revenue to competitors who invested in local SEO.
Chicago's 77 community areas each function as their own market — and each one has fierce local search competition. The Loop is packed with professional services firms fighting for visibility against national brands. Wicker Park and Bucktown's boutiques, restaurants, and creative studios along Milwaukee Avenue, Damen, and Division Street compete for a mobile-first crowd. Lincoln Park draws foot traffic to its mix of restaurants, fitness studios, and specialty retail along Armitage and Halsted. Logan Square, Pilsen, Hyde Park, Andersonville, and the West Loop each have thriving business corridors where local service providers need affordable web design to compete against better-funded neighbors. From Rogers Park to Beverly, the businesses that dominate local search results are the ones that invested in professional websites.
Whether you need a custom website to rank for searches near the Magnificent Mile, Google Business Profile optimization to get found by homeowners in Lincoln Square, or a complete small business web design and SEO strategy for any of Chicago's neighborhoods — we build fast, search-optimized websites that bring in leads. No templates, no page builders — just professional Chicago web design that works.
