NYC Helpdesk

Founded by Jared Shih, NYC HelpDesk is a small New York City-based web development and SEO company that has provided in-house style web services to New York area clients for over a decade. The company works with organizations managing complex web applications and databases, with particular attention to non-profits seeking SEO support alongside general businesses needing ongoing site development. It is certified as a Minority-owned Business Enterprise with the New York City Department of Small Business Services, and positions itself as a local, hands-on alternative to larger agencies, with Jared working on-site with clients to integrate into their existing workflows and company culture. Services center on web development using WordPress, Joomla!, Drupal and Symfony frameworks, along with maintenance of open source databases and enterprise-level web applications. On the SEO side, the agency describes White Hat SEO campaigns intended to increase website traffic, paired with content writing aimed at reducing bounce rates and marketing plans designed to support sales and donation growth, particularly for non-profit clients. The company frames its approach as an ongoing partnership rather than a one-off project, offering clients continuous access to a development team without the overhead of hiring in-house staff. Prospective clients are offered a free consultation to discuss SEO processes and website goals before engagement begins.
