Wealth management web design services

Websites for financial firms that need to look as established as they are.

Wealth managers, asset managers, and financial planners come to Takeoff when the website stops matching the firm. We rebuild it around how prospective clients actually decide, and make sure it holds up in Google and AI results when they start looking.

The pattern

Where financial services web design usually goes wrong

The firm has an established track record, but the website is a step behind it.

What brings firms to us

Prospective clients researching on Google and AI assistants, and the firm shows up in neither

Competitors with half the track record outranking you on the terms that matter

Decades of authority and AUM, presented on a site that looks a step behind the competition

Legal review and a legacy CMS turning every update into a multi-week project

What we do about it

SEO and AEO work so the firm shows up when your prospects are researching

Reporting tied to qualified inquiries and pipeline

A redesign built around how prospective clients actually evaluate an advisor

A CMS marketing can run without developer tickets, tested on mobile devices as well as desktop

I've been through 12 website launches in my career and I want to give some well-deserved credit to Takeoff for delivering the best experience I've had to date.

Overview

Wealth management web design, built around how clients actually choose a firm.

Prospective clients do not skim. They read the about page, look for the investment philosophy and fee model, and decide in a few screens whether a firm is serious.

So our web design for wealth management work starts with research. A content audit, a read of how your target audience compares firms, and UX recommendations that set the website architecture.

Compliance considerations become scheduled stages rather than a scramble. The CMS we hand over is one marketing can run without a developer, and you own all of it.

Who it's for

Wealth managers, asset management firms and financial institutions whose site looks a step behind their actual standing

Financial advisors and retirement planning specialists competing on fiduciary duty and fee transparency

Firms where legal review has made the website effectively impossible to update

Advisor websites invisible in the Google and AI results where potential clients start looking

Fintech and payments platforms selling into banks, insurers and asset managers

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of Takeoff's wealth management web design services?

Five things, in the order they matter. A site structured around how prospective clients actually evaluate an advisor, so the investment philosophy, the team, and the fee model are findable in a few clicks. Copy and design produced together from one content strategy, so you are never reviewing lorem ipsum. Legal and compliance review as scheduled stages with named reviewers, built into the timeline rather than added on top of it. A CMS your marketing team can run without developer tickets, with disclosures handled as content. And SEO and AEO built into the redesign, so rankings survive the launch and the firm gets cited when someone asks an AI assistant for an advisor.

A standard project runs about 14 weeks.

What makes Takeoff different from other agencies doing web design for wealth management companies?

Strategy before design, and SEO inside the rebuild. We settle the page map and the content strategy before anyone opens Figma, then three designers produce independent homepage concepts, so you're choosing a direction rather than editing the only one. Compliance review is scheduled with named reviewers instead of appearing at the end.

Glenmede came out of their redesign with a 108.59% increase in non-branded traffic and a 51% increase in organic search conversion rates.

What should you look for when choosing an agency for wealth management web design services?

Four things worth asking about. Whether SEO and AEO are part of the redesign or a separate project after it, because that's where firms lose traffic. Whether they've handled compliance review before, or you'll be teaching them. Whether your marketing team can update the site afterward without developer tickets. And whether you own the files, the CMS and the code when it's done.

Ask for a migration plan before you sign anything.

How do you handle compliance and legal review on an advisor website?

As scheduled stages with named reviewers, built into the timeline rather than added on top of it. Compliance sees the content strategy, the page map and the copy at set points, so feedback arrives once per stage instead of landing at the end and restarting the project.

Disclosures, ADV links and required language are handled as content your team can update, so a rule change doesn't need a developer.

Do we have to do a full redesign to work with you?

No. An ongoing optimization retainer is a common starting point. We improve the site in pieces, so you spend less up front and see results sooner because work ships as it's ready.

It fits firms whose site is basically sound and mainly needs conversion work, new service pages or search visibility.

Will a redesign put our current search rankings at risk?

Only if the migration is handled badly, which is why we plan it first. URL mapping, redirects, metadata and schema all carry over, and SEO is part of the rebuild rather than a phase after it.

Glenmede's non-branded traffic rose 108.59% and contact form submissions rose 226.7% after their site launched.

How long does a wealth management website redesign take?

About 14 weeks, with a normal range of 12 to 16. Compliance review is usually what moves the number, so we schedule it as named stages rather than leaving it to the end.

Firms with several entities or a longer list of reviewers sit at the top of that range.

What does wealth management website design cost?

$50k and up for the growth package, $130k and up for enterprise. Page count, how much content needs writing and migrating, and integrations like CRM or advisor search are what move it.

Retainers are priced separately if you'd rather spread the work over time.

Can you improve our visibility when clients ask AI assistants for a financial advisor?

That's what AEO is for, and it's built into the redesign rather than sold separately. We structure pages so answer engines can extract them, mark up the firm, its people and its services, and build the third-party citations these models pull from.

Glenmede's contact requests sourced from LLMs went up 828.57%.

Do you work with financial firms outside wealth management?

Yes. Asset managers, RIAs, banks and credit unions, insurance companies and fintech platforms selling into financial institutions.

The common thread is a long, multi-stakeholder decision and a site that has to build trust across it, rather than the specific license on the wall.
