Website Developer San Diego
Websites Built to Earn Trust and Win Leads
We don’t rely on bulky themes or page builders. Every site is tailored to your business, designed to look credible, and built to make it easy for customers to contact you.
-
Built Around Your Goals
No cookie-cutter templates. Your site is designed around your audience, your services, and what you want visitors to do next.
-
Fast From Day One
A quick, smooth experience keeps people on your site and makes it easier to turn visits into calls, bookings, and form submissions.
-
Mobile-first Design
Designed mobile-first so your site looks great and works perfectly on phones, tablets, and desktops.
-
Fewer Security Headaches
A clean build with fewer moving parts means fewer updates, fewer surprises, and less risk compared to typical plugin-heavy sites.
-
Direct Communication
Work directly with the person building your site. No outsourcing, no ticket maze—just clear, responsive communication.
-
Conversion-focused UX
Every section is structured to guide visitors toward taking action, turning qualified traffic into real leads and revenue.
Serving San Diego Businesses
We work with businesses across San Diego and the surrounding county. Whether you're a local startup or an established San Diego brand, we build websites that help you look credible, compete online, and win more leads.

Every Second Counts—Literally
Website speed isn't just about user experience. It directly impacts your bottom line, your ad spend, and whether visitors even stay long enough to see what you offer.
- 53%
of mobile users abandon sites that take over 3 seconds to load
Google/SOASTA Research - 7%
decrease in conversions for every 1-second delay
Akamai - 32%
higher bounce rate for pages loading in 3s vs 1s
Google - 2x
more ad spend needed to overcome slow page speeds

Speed Affects Every Dollar You Spend and Earn
-
Your Ad Budget Is Being Wasted
If your site loads slowly, you're paying for clicks that bounce. Google and Facebook penalize slow sites with higher CPC. A fast site means lower acquisition costs and higher ROI on every marketing dollar.
-
You're Invisible to Google
Google pays attention to page experience. Slow sites can struggle to compete, while faster competitors capture the clicks. <a href="/insights/improve-website-speed-core-web-vitals-guide/">Read our complete website speed guide</a>.
-
WordPress Maintenance Is Killing Your Time
Plugin updates, security patches, compatibility conflicts, emergency fixes when your site breaks. That time adds up fast—and it’s time you could be spending running your business. <a href="/insights/static-vs-wordpress/">Learn how to cut website maintenance</a>.
-
Security Vulnerabilities Put You at Risk
WordPress powers 43% of the web—making it the #1 target for hackers. 70% of WordPress sites have at least one vulnerability. A single breach can cost thousands in recovery, lost revenue, and damaged reputation.
-
Hidden Costs Add Up Fast
Premium plugins, managed hosting, security services, emergency developer fixes, theme updates, database optimization. What started as a $50/month site becomes $200+/month—and it's still slow and vulnerable.

What Makes Us Different
We’re not another WordPress agency promising "fast" sites. Oui Digital specializes in high-performance, hand-coded websites for small businesses, built to load instantly, stay secure, and require minimal maintenance.
-
14-Day Turnaround
Most agencies take 6–12 weeks. We typically deliver production-ready sites in about 2 weeks for standard brochure sites, with a clear timeline and fast feedback loops.
-
Enterprise-Level Experience
I’ve worked on Nokia’s website while at Wunderman and spent 6 years as a lead developer at Siege Media (an Inc. 5000 company, six years running). Now I bring those same performance-first standards to San Diego small businesses—without the big-agency price tag.
-
True Bilingual Support
As a native French speaker, I provide genuine bilingual French/English sites—not Google Translate, but culturally adapted content that resonates with both audiences. Perfect for businesses targeting international markets. Spanish is also possible with client-provided copy.
-
Zero WordPress Maintenance
No plugins to update. No security patches. No emergency fixes when something breaks at 2am. Your site just works, month after month, year after year.
-
Predictable Monthly Cost
No surprise bills. No hidden fees. No premium plugins to buy. $165-$300/month includes hosting, updates, security monitoring, and unlimited content changes (within reason).
-
Local San Diego Partner
Available for face-to-face meetings in San Diego. Understand the local market, local SEO, and what San Diego customers expect. We're not an overseas agency or a faceless platform.
-
Measurable Performance
We build for Core Web Vitals and Lighthouse performance from day one. You’ll get measurable benchmarks at launch (Lighthouse, CWV targets, and real-device testing where possible).
-
Email-Based Updates
For most clients, email-based updates are simpler than logging into a CMS. If you prefer a CMS, we can also offer a lightweight editing workflow depending on your needs.

Everything You Need to Know
-
Simple! Just email us your changes and we'll update them within 24-48 hours. No learning curve, no WordPress dashboard, no technical headaches. For most small businesses, this is actually faster and easier than logging into WordPress.
-
Absolutely! We'll carefully migrate your content, preserve your SEO rankings, and set up proper redirects. Most migrations are seamless for your visitors and search engines. We can also improve performance and design in the process.
-
Yes, you can absolutely have a blog on a performance-first website. We can set up a blog system where you send us posts via email, Google Docs, or Notion, and we publish them. For clients who post multiple times per week, we can discuss CMS options or git-based workflows.
-
Yes! While we're based in San Diego, we work with clients across the United States and internationally. All communication happens via video calls, email, and project management tools. Distance has never been a barrier to great work.
-
Your subscription includes hosting, unlimited update requests (within reason), security monitoring, uptime monitoring, and ongoing support. We handle all technical aspects so you never have to worry about your website breaking or getting hacked.
-
Yes! As a native French speaker, I provide true bilingual support—not just translation, but cultural adaptation that resonates with both English and French-speaking audiences. This is perfect for businesses serving international markets or French communities in the US.
-
Our core process ships most 5 page sites in 14 days from kickoff. When a project needs extra integrations or advanced content, we still wrap within 3-4 weeks and keep you updated every step.
-
Every plan comes with a 12-month commitment so we can recoup the build cost. After that first year, your site rolls into a simple month-to-month relationship and you can cancel with 30 days notice. If you decide to cancel, we turn off hosting and you don't keep the hosted build—otherwise every business would grab a free custom site and bounce.
