Serving Indianapolis, Indiana, from downtown Cincinnati

Indianapolis web design, built to be found.

You get a finished website that makes choosing you easy, forged from what you know about your business and your customers. We build every site for Google and for AI search, starting with the first line of code.

  • A written scope and one fixed price before anything gets built.
  • A demo of the real site every week. Most websites take 2 to 8 weeks.
  • Already have a site? We start with it, and if a targeted fix makes more sense than a rebuild, we'll tell you.

The proof

Our sites have sourced $3M in revenue for our clients in 2026.

Reported by our clients, 2026 year to date as of November 10, 2026.

Featured project: True Power Systems, Lexington, Kentucky

Six months in, TPS traces $1M in signed work to its web leads.

When True Power Systems came to us, its whole website was one GoDaddy page that said Launching Soon. We built the firm site in six weeks, then a network of state sites, all feeding one lead pipeline.

TPS's own figure, reported by Scott Mann, its Director of Business Development, on September 25, 2026. It's the part of the firm's growth that TPS credits to the sites, and the case study says what else drove it.

Built for the trades

Six sites we built, from HVAC to home builders.

Every one is live today. Four of them replaced a site the business already had, and each has a case study with the pages and the timeline behind it.

How we build it

Four steps to your live website.

We name the steps after the forge, and each one answers a plain question about your project.

  1. Orange fire glowing between cracked black forge coals, the discovery stage, where a website's goals, scope and launch milestones get agreed

    01Heat · Discovery & scope

    What are we trying to accomplish?

    First we agree on what the website has to do for your business, starting with the work you want more of and what's getting in the way of it.

    You get: A written scope, fixed quote, and launch milestones.

  2. Bright molten metal flowing between dark, cracked crusts, the design and development stage, where a website takes shape as working pages

    02Shape · Design & development

    What should we build, and how should it work?

    We plan the pages your customers need, each with an obvious next step, and build them as real, working pages. Bring your own words and photos, or we'll write and source them for you. Your feedback at each weekly demo guides the next pass.

    You get: A private preview you can use on your phone and desktop.

  3. Hammered steel shading from warm gold through violet to blue, the testing stage that checks a website's speed, accessibility, forms and mobile layout

    03Temper · Testing & refinement

    How do we make sure it performs reliably?

    Before launch, we test your key pages on phones and desktops for speed and accessibility. We check that the forms work and the layouts hold up on mobile, then fix whatever gets in a customer's way.

    You get: A reviewed site, with launch checks and fixes documented.

  4. A polished steel browser window showing the homepage we built for The Heinrich Firm, the launch stage, when a website goes live and gets handed over for ongoing care

    04Finish · Launch & ongoing care

    What happens at launch and afterward?

    We launch with redirects from your old pages and tracking in place, then hand the site over and show your team how to run it. You get 30 days of support for any fixes or tweaks, and real searches and inquiries guide the improvements that follow.

    You get: Your live website, team handover, and an agreed support plan.

What's included

One fixed price covers your whole website project.

A custom website or redesign, designed and built end to end: $4,000 to $15,000. Where yours falls depends on scope, and you get one fixed price before a line of code is written.

Here's what every website project includes, and the terms that come with it.

  • Design and development, built from scratch
  • Testing before launch
  • Launch and handover
  • 30 days of support after launch
  • Clear documentation
  • Training for your team
  • One fixed price, in writing, that you approve before we start. If the scope changes, you get a change order before the work, not a surprise after it.
  • No long-term contract.

Hosting is a separate monthly cost.

Straight answers before you call.

Do I own my website?

Yes. On final payment, the design, the content, and the code we write for you belong to you, and your data always does. Your site connects to Sonor, our own platform for analytics, forms and SEO, which you use rather than buy. Your proposal lists what's delivered and what stays a service.

Can I update the website myself after it launches?

Yes. We build your site so you can change text, swap photos, and add blog posts or pages without a developer. We also train your team on how to manage it, and we're here if you ever want us to handle updates for you.

How long does a website take to build?

Most websites take 2 to 8 weeks. Where yours lands depends on how many pages it has and whether it needs custom features like logins, booking, or a customer dashboard. If you're working toward a hard deadline, tell us and we'll plan around it.

Do you offer ongoing support after launch?

Yes. Every project includes 30 days of post-launch support for bug fixes and adjustments. After that, you can keep us on a retainer, and retainer clients go first, with emergency support from 8am to 11pm Eastern, 7 days a week. Without one, we still work on your project: we invoice the work and respond within one business day.

How much does a website cost?

Price scales with scope. A new website or redesign costs $4,000 to $15,000, depending on page count and features. A web application behind the site costs more. Either way, you get a fixed, written price before a single line of code is written, and there's no hourly meter running.

Will my website show up on Google?

We build crawlable pages with clear metadata, useful content, internal links, and a sitemap. Google decides whether and when to index and rank them; a build can't guarantee visibility or leads. One measured example: after our rebuild, Cincinnati Condo Connection brought in 165 inquiries in eight months with no monthly plan. That's one site's result for that period, not a promise.

Can you rebuild or move our existing WordPress site?

Yes, off WordPress. Moving a site to us is one of the most common things we do: we rebuild it on a modern stack, keep all your content, map redirects, check indexing and measure performance before and after the move. We don't rebuild on WordPress or maintain WordPress sites. Clients tell us how much smoother everything feels afterward.

Does Upforge have an Indianapolis office?

No. Our studio is at 250 E 5th St, Suite 1593, Cincinnati, OH 45202. We work with Indianapolis clients remotely through scheduled calls, weekly working demos, and direct feedback with the build team.
