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.

- Fast load times (often under 2 seconds)

Marvellous Job
My website was quite old and needed to be fully renewed to match modern requirements such as responsive design, GDPR compliance, security (https), and future plans. Oui Digital did a marvellous job. Xavier understood my needs, fully respected the spirit of the original site, and carefully took all my remarks and wishes into consideration. Thank you Oui Digital for this amazing work!
- ★★★★★
Beyond My Expectations
Xavier created my WordPress website for my life coaching business, and I couldn't be happier with the result. He was incredibly attentive to my needs, making sure the final product truly reflected who I am, my values, and what I wanted to communicate. The result went beyond my expectations. It's not only beautiful and professional but also perfectly aligned with my vision. I've received nothing but compliments from my clients about the site! I highly recommend working with him—you won't be disappointed!
- ★★★★★
World Class Development Team
Oui Digital is a world class WordPress development team that shows care and craft in everything they do. Would highly recommend for any WordPress project!
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.
