What Is HTML5?
HTML5 is the latest version of the most widely used language in web and mobile design. It gives instructions for how web pages should be displayed across the web.
You may be familiar with simple HTML tags like <header> and </body> to indicate whether certain images or blocks of text should be displayed as part of the header of a page or part of the body of the text. The language is far more extensive, of course, and determines every part of how a colorful, dynamic web page or mobile app displays to the end user.
The 5 in the current incarnation of the language simply refers to the version. If you are vaguely familiar with the basic HTML language from the early days of program-your-own profile websites (MySpace, anyone?), then you will have a good general idea of how the HTML5 framework operates. It’s just a far more sophisticated version today than what existed twenty years ago.
HTML5 is used by the vast majority of all websites and mobile apps in today’s standardized online environment. While it’s not overly difficult to learn, there are many nuances to HTML5 that can make website development a painstaking process for new learners.
SEO Design Chicago offers a comprehensive suite of digital marketing solutions featuring a team of developers proficient in top-notch HTML5 development. You can trust us to create a website or mobile app that displays exactly how you want it to and is easy to expand in the future as your web presence grows.

Website Customization
Since HTML5 has become the industry-standard language, there are numerous design solutions that utilize HTML5. Many business owners prefer to select an existing web template for their initial design and then hire dedicated developers to customize it according to their specific brand requirements.
For example, perhaps you have a basic template that you like for your photography business, but you would like to customize it to include your custom brand colors and font, additional service pages and galleries, and make sure it displays properly on mobile devices. These are precisely the types of tasks that our expert developers specialize in.
Will It Work With My CMS?
Many content management systems, such as WordPress and Drupal, utilize HTML5 in their programming languages. These user-friendly platforms make it easy to “build your own” websites, but they are still dependent on the fundamental programming languages that create the design. These are mostly HTML5 and CSS.
The benefit of these platforms is that an experienced designer can easily make changes to your existing site through the code without disrupting the rest of your design. This gives it an advantage over CMS platforms with more limited, pre-set design options.
Scalable Web and Mobile Applications
Websites and apps are constantly evolving. Your site needs to be adaptable so you can tweak it as needed or add new pages when you have additional content to share.
Our company offers secure, customized, and scalable solutions designed to grow in tandem with your business. In other words, you won’t need to hire a new HTML5 development company every time you need to make a change to your app or site. We will work with you to identify your project’s objectives and create a coding framework that can be easily adjusted to accommodate changes as needed.
Whether you need a web app, an HTML5 mobile app, or a complete website redesign, our team can help you bring your vision to life.
Development and Design

You may have an existing site that you just want to make a few changes to. Our developer team can handle that. Or, perhaps you are rebranding or migrating a website to a new format. Our technical team will collaborate with the design team to help you develop a cohesive look and flow for the customer-facing product.
Mobile Optimization
We’re increasingly living in a mobile-first environment. Smartphones now generate 62% of global web traffic. If your website does not display properly on mobile browsers, you are losing out on more than half of all potential searchers.
There is a choice when it comes to mobile optimization. Many businesses choose to create HTML5 apps that are easy to design and modify. Incentives are usually offered to customers for downloading the app, especially for e-commerce sites.
Some brands don’t bother with an app and just focus on mobile displays. Even if you do want to expand to apps eventually, optimizing for mobile browsers is essential.
Our experienced team uses the latest HTML5-based tools and frameworks to speed up development time and create reactive designs that function smoothly for the end user.
Website Migrations
Though HTML5 is the dominant player in web design these days, some sites still run on older languages. This means that you need a complete website migration to set you up for future success.
Our HTML5 development services include full web migrations. Our team can handle the entire process of creating an updated, responsive website, including preserving your design and complex system of internal links as you transition to a new platform. Furthermore, we can help you preserve your search engine ranking as you move, a common concern with migrating websites to the interactive HTML5 format.
Like any move, a migration can be overwhelming. Learn more about how we can assist you with a comprehensive website migration here.

HTML5 Website Development for Responsive Design
Responsive design is the concept in application development that web applications should respond to the way consumers use them. That means that the page design adjusts automatically to how the user is viewing it.
This is accomplished through a variety of HTML5 solutions, like structuring image display size as a percentage of the screen instead of as a fixed size, like pixels or points. This means that if a user switches to viewing a web page on a tablet instead of on their desktop, image sizes will adjust accordingly.
Responsive design is so expected these days that most of us never even notice it, unless it isn’t present. If you click on a website on your smartphone and the page’s title suddenly takes up 85% of your screen, then you know that that site has failed to create web pages that respond to your device.
Our project managers can handle your mobile web HTML5 project to ensure that every page of your site loads perfectly on all different screen sizes.
Cross-Platform Solutions
HTML5 offers the basic structural language for web app solutions, but it usually integrates other tools to present the finished product. These tools help the final app or page display well on different screen sizes, integrate the latest design elements, and are easily updated in-house.
JavaScript and CSS are often used to handle the design and performance elements of a page. Sometimes, languages can interact in a way that causes page load errors, negatively affecting your website’s search engine rankings (SEO).
Our team of experienced HTML5 developers is well-versed in a variety of programming languages and their nuances. They can help build your HTML5 mobile application to function smoothly while keeping the development cost of the total project within your budget.
