Wix and Squarespace designer in San Diego: when to stay, when to move

San Diego businesses search for a Wix designer or a Squarespace expert when their builder site has stopped keeping up: it is slow on phones, it does not rank, or it cannot do what the business now needs. Velour Web helps those businesses move to a custom-coded site they own, keeping the domain and, with redirects, the rankings, for included with hosting at $50 a month. If your builder site is genuinely enough for now, we say so on the call.

How the move works

You keep the domain. We export the content and images, design and hand-code the new site, redirect every URL that changes, connect the forms and any tools you use, and point the domain at the new site. Downtime is minutes. The builder subscription is cancelled after launch. Most moves are included with hosting at $50 a month, and the new site is live 1–2 days after payment, your assets and access to the builder account.

If you want to stay on Wix or Squarespace

For a single-location business ranking for its own name, a builder site can be enough. We do not take on Wix or Squarespace design work, because the platforms' speed and SEO limits cannot be fixed from inside them. What we can do is a free audit on the call that tells you whether moving would change your results.
