Why it matters

Speed is the first thing a customer notices

Google measures it and uses it to break ties. Visitors leave slow pages before they see the phone number. Every site we build is measured before launch, and this one is the proof.

Why custom code

Velour Web vs. a typical WordPress agency

A custom-coded site loads in under a second, has nothing to patch, and belongs to you. That is why it ranks better and converts more of the people who find it.

Security and updatesNothing to patch. Static pages, no admin login to attack.Weekly plugin updates; the most-hacked platform on the web.

OwnershipYou own the code, the content and the hosting.Theme and plugin licenses; often locked to the agency.

FAQ

Common questions

How much does a website cost in San Diego?

Most business websites we build in San Diego cost $3,000 to $8,000. Larger builds with many city pages, online stores or booking systems run $8,000 to $25,000 and up. Web apps are quoted after a short discovery sprint. Every project gets a written quote after a free 20-minute call.

How long does it take to build a website?

A business website usually takes 2 to 4 weeks from kickoff to launch. Larger sites with 10 or more city pages or e-commerce take 4 to 8 weeks. You see the design before we write code, and you get a launch date at the start of the project.

Do you do SEO?

Yes. Every site we build includes on-page SEO, structured data, fast load times and a Google Business Profile setup. For businesses that want to rank across San Diego County, our Local SEO Websites add a page for every service and city you serve, plus tracking so you can see the leads.

Why not WordPress, Wix or Squarespace?

Page builders load slowly, need constant plugin updates and are the most common target for hacks. We write the code by hand with Next.js, so your site loads in under a second, has nothing to patch, and you own every file. If you already have a WordPress site, we can migrate it without losing rankings.

Do I own my website?

Yes. You own the domain, the code and the content. We hand over the full source and hosting access at launch. You can keep us on a care plan or take it anywhere.

What about hosting and maintenance?

Hosting and care plans run $150 to $500 per month and include hosting, uptime monitoring, security, content updates and a monthly performance report. There are no required plugins or licenses.

Can you fix my existing website?

Yes. We handle redesigns, speed fixes, mobile problems and migrations from WordPress, Wix and Squarespace. We keep every URL that ranks or redirect it properly, so you keep your Google history.

Which areas do you serve?

We are based in North San Diego County and work with businesses across the county: San Diego, La Jolla, Del Mar, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, Escondido, Poway, Chula Vista, El Cajon and Temecula. We meet in person locally and work remotely with clients across California.
