Lakeside Web Design is a Midwest digital marketing agency with deep roots in Milwaukee and a growing presence in Chicago. We're not a faceless national firm; we're your local partners, dedicated to building high-performance websites and digital strategies that deliver real, measurable results for businesses like yours. We combine hometown service with big-city results to help you thrive online.
Lakeside Web Design was born on the shores of Lake Michigan with a simple mission: to help local Milwaukee businesses succeed online. Founder Jamie started the company with a passion for clean design, smart SEO, and a genuine desire to see his clients’ businesses grow. By delivering on our promises and building strong relationships, we earned a reputation for quality and results across Wisconsin.
As our reputation grew, we saw a similar need just down the road. Chicago, a world-class city full of ambitious businesses, deserved a digital partner with the same commitment to personalized strategy and local expertise. In 2025, we officially expanded our services to the Windy City. Today, we’re proud to serve as a premier web design and SEO resource for businesses in both Milwaukee and Chicago, bringing our proven process and Midwest work ethic to every project.
