Local knowledge

Building websites for Santa Monica businesses

Santa Monica is the Westside's health, wellness and aesthetics market: dermatology, plastic surgery, med spas, dentistry, physical therapy, chiropractic, yoga, pilates and boutique fitness compete block by block from Wilshire to Main Street. Practices here are judged on speed, provider credentials, before-and-after galleries and reviews, and most of their sites fail the first test on a phone.

Montana Avenue, Main Street and the Third Street Promenade hold boutiques, restaurants, coffee and bars that live on Maps and on the tourist and daytime crowd from Ocean Avenue and the pier. A Business Profile that matches the site, a menu that loads in a second and photos that look like the room are what put a Main Street restaurant above the chains.

Silicon Beach, from Santa Monica through Venice to Playa Vista, is dense with startups, agencies, studios and consultancies that need marketing sites, docs and signup flows built fast and measured, and occasionally the product itself. We designed and launched Fiory.AI, a software platform used by 100+ florists, and bring that to smaller products.

Real estate, hotels, vacation rentals and event businesses near the beach compete on the Santa Monica name against the portals and the platforms. Neighborhood pages, direct-booking flows and structured data are how a boutique hotel or an agent takes back the searches the platforms currently own.

Santa Monica searches are Westside-specific and high-intent: 'dermatologist Santa Monica', 'pilates Santa Monica', 'restaurant Montana Avenue'. Naming the street or district, a page per service, and a Business Profile that matches are what separate the practices that appear from the hundreds that do not.

A local web developer in Santa Monica

Velour Web is a local web developer for Santa Monica businesses, based in San Diego and Los Angeles. Alexey is in Los Angeles half of every month and meets Santa Monica clients in person for the kickoff and the design review, and run the rest of the project by email and preview links. You work with the developer who writes the code, not an account manager, and you can call (858) 933-1860 and reach him.

If you have been searching for a Santa Monica web designer, a website developer near you, or a web design company that actually knows Santa Monica, this is the page: every site we build here is custom-coded, fast on a phone, and set up to rank for your service in Santa Monica and the neighboring cities.

Looking for a website builder in Santa Monica?

Many Santa Monica owners search for a “website builder” and find either a DIY tool (Wix, Squarespace, GoDaddy) or a person who builds websites. We are the second kind. A DIY builder is fine for a placeholder; it is slow on phones, limited for local SEO, and every fix is yours to make. A custom website from us is included with hosting at $50 a month, loads in under a second, is built to rank in Santa Monica, and is managed for you on a domain in your name.

Whatever you call it, a custom website, a business website, a professional website, a small business website, or someone to build my website, the answer for a Santa Monica business is the same: a page for each service, Santa Monica named where it matters, a quote form and phone number everywhere, and a Google Business Profile that matches.
