ATTN all current or future-prospects who’re thinking of conducting business with The Web Design Corp. DO NOT PROCEED!!! Please read this entire comment and direct your attention to the last section of this comment, as it contains all their contact information. When I was introduced to Hide Rodgers, one of the head project managers at The Web Design Corp, he explained to me their capabilities and promised to create a platform for my company. After he reviewed all the requisite blueprints I sent over, he explained that the development of the project wouldn’t be an issue, and that his team would be able to develop said project within 6 – 12months. On 10/11/2022, he sent me a contract to sign and explained that an upfront payment of $2,500 was required. Additionally, the total cost of the project was supposed to be $5,000; as stated in the contract. Months later, despite an initially smooth and on-schedule project, concerns arose around the 4-month mark. My project was unexpectedly put on hold, prompting me to reach out to Hyde. With no response, I reached out to my initial contact who escalated the issue to their superiors. Alan Parker, another project manager took over, restarting backend development. On 03-29-2023, he provided an updated work list and introduced new costs for compliance certifications (PCI, GDPR, HIPAA, ADA) totaling $2,000, along with hosting services amounting to $3,255. The total paid to The Web Design Corp now stands at $10,255. A few months later, I contacted their attorney, Wayne Robson to inquire about the delay in receiving my compliance certifications. Wayne asserted that an additional payment was required for processing and shipping the certificates, amounting to approximately $1,900. Despite my explanation that I had already paid Alan Parker for platform compliance, Wayne insisted these were separate costs. I pointed out that government agencies don't impose extra fees for processing and shipping certificates, emphasizing that the total cost should have been covered upon application submission. Despite my clarification, Wayne maintained his position. After that, I ended up speaking with Alan Parker again about the completion of the backend of the website. Almost one year later, and he finally sends over the list of completed functions and wants me to approve the backend of the website so we can start working on the frontend. After I test each function, I noticed that there were some flaws in their development, like simple spelling errors on some of the headings, additional functions that I never even listed in my blueprints, and over half of the forementioned functions outlined in my blueprints weren’t even built into the platform. When I expressed my dissatisfaction, Alan Parker attempted to provide emails as evidence of my approval for all backend functions. Furthermore, discussions about integrating a Microsoft API for user-friendliness surfaced, with Alan demanding a one-time fee of approximately $2,700. Research revealed that the API had a monthly cost, contrary to Alan's claim. Despite my argument, Alan stated that he couldn't move forward with the development of the platform unless this amount was paid. CONCLUSION As I’m writing this comment on 02/05/2024, Alan Parker is now holding my platform hostage and refuses to continue developing the frontend and completing the development of my platform. He even sent me an email giving me an ultimatum. Either I pay the requested amount of approximately $2,700, or my project will be terminated. IMPORTANT If you’ve been scammed by this company and the forementioned employees and are currently seeking or have an attorney, then you’ll be needing their contact information. As I’m writing this on 02/05/2024, all the individuals I’ve mentioned in this comment and their contact details are listed below. Due to the rules of this review platform, I'm unable to provide their email addresses, which I currently possess.

Zero Stars. I bought a website, SEO, ADA and social media. They took 8 months to finish my website because every week there was a spelling/grammar error, glitches and sizing issues. Links didn't work, etc and it takes days to get simple fixes and I couldn't send more than 3-4 edits at a time or they would miss half of it and then other issues would pop up every time. The SEO is horrible as I was still on the 7th page of Google after 8 months published. I asked for my money back after seeing the horrible social media attempts they made too, but spoiler alert, they never reimbursed me. They were not transparent in what they were selling - trying to bait and switch and I would need to correct them on what I purchased (I started keeping their sales pitches to use against them when they said items weren't covered). They never understood what my business was - they put up completely wrong images that were the opposite of what I asked for. They would make blog dumps of 4 articles every 3-4 months - one even promoted another competitor company!!! After about a year, I got an email about "ADA compliance" needing a renewal - signed like its a government agency but not from a .gov email. This company backed it up and said it was real and I needed to pay. SCAM. Tried to scare me with blacklists and all the things. Simultaneously, my website is now looking like it's a phishing website and is considered unsecured. DO NOT BUY - DO NOT WASTE A YEAR OF YOUR TIME and MONEY

I actually choose NO STARS !! This joke of a company are nothing but bullies, liars and scammers !! I think we should all get together and do something about these a***holes who take our money and give nothing back ! I am out of pocket nearly $6k and I’d hate to imagine how much I’ve lost because I’ve been jerked around by them for nearly a year !! Please reach out to me and let’s see if we can stop them from hurting many other innocent victims 😡

Report the Illinois Police. They operate multiple websites especially to defraud people. They are in the midst of setting up all new websites with the same goal.

they stole alll my money

I am writing this review to share my extremely disappointing and frustrating experience with The Web Design Corp. My interactions with this company while trying to overhaul my website have been nothing short of a nightmare. I initially contacted The Web Design Corp on March 29, 2022, with high hopes of transforming my website into a more modern and compliant platform. Little did I know that this would mark the beginning of a series of challenges, miscommunications, and unmet expectations. From the start, there was a significant amount of back and forth required to arrive at a website design that I was even remotely satisfied with. While I understand that achieving the right design can take some iterations, the process was unnecessarily prolonged and often frustrating. The situation worsened when The Web Design Corp finally rolled out the new website sometime in late May 2022. To my dismay, the website was riddled with errors and numerous issues that needed immediate attention. It was shocking to see how a supposedly professional web design company could release such a subpar product. What added to my disappointment was the unexpected financial burden. Initially, I was provided with a certain price estimate, only to discover later that it was nowhere close to the final cost. The company sneakily included multiple add-ons that drove the total cost well beyond what I had anticipated. To my disbelief, these add-ons amounted to over $2,225, a significant departure from the original estimate. One of the most aggravating aspects of this entire ordeal was the promised backend login feature, which would have allowed me to make changes to the website after it was built. Regrettably, this feature has been nothing but a mirage. Despite continuous attempts and requests, I have been unable to gain access to the promised backend login. It's as if The Web Design Corp took my money and vanished into thin air, leaving me with a dysfunctional website and an inability to make the necessary changes. In my desperation to seek resolution, I involved legal counsel. My attorney sent a demand letter to The Web Design Corp, a communication that went unanswered for a significant period. Only after I reached out to inquire about the status of the demand letter did I receive a response. Shockingly, their reply laid the blame on me, asserting that the project was closed due to my alleged fault. This entire experience has left me feeling deceived, taken advantage of, and utterly unsatisfied with the services provided by The Web Design Corp. The level of unprofessionalism, poor communication, and disregard for customer satisfaction displayed by this company is nothing short of astounding. In conclusion, I would strongly advise anyone considering The Web Design Corp for their web development needs to proceed with caution. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this company to anyone seeking a reliable, professional, and ethical web design partner.

The worst experience I’ve ever had dealing with a company! Zero absolutely zero, follow-through! They are difficult to reach, no one ever answers the phone, they hang up on you if you finally do reach someone. I’ve been working with this company for a year and still do not have a functioning website. Links that lead to nowhere, links that lead to the wrong pages, statistics that have zero to do with my business. The absolute worst quality of work and professionalism I’ve ever encountered in my 18 years in business. I would absolutely not recommend this company.
