Custom Web Design Built by Senior Engineers
MIS Services Inc has been designing and building websites for U.S. businesses since 2014. Hundreds of client websites later, we still write code by hand. We do not assemble Elementor or Divi templates and call them custom designs.
Most web designing companies in the U.S. fall into two categories. The first sells page-builder WordPress (Elementor, Divi, WPBakery) with stock photos, shipping in two weeks. The second sells Wix or Squarespace templates with minor customization. Both produce sites that load slowly, score poorly on Google Core Web Vitals, and look like the other 40 sites that company built last quarter. Both also lock you into their toolchain — leaving means rebuilding.
We work differently. Our team includes senior front-end developers writing React and Next.js, and back-end engineers writing PHP for hand-coded WordPress themes. We measure every site against Core Web Vitals targets (LCP under 2.0 seconds, INP under 150ms, CLS under 0.05). We build to WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility standards because New York State has active ADA lawsuit exposure for public-facing sites. Our own misservices.us site is built in Next.js — sub-2-second loads, 95+ Lighthouse mobile scores, fully custom. That is the standard we hold every client build to.
Below: the six services we offer, an honest custom-vs-template comparison, transparent maintenance pricing, and how to start.
