My website looks outdated compared to competitors in Salcedo Village.
In Makati's professional market, first impressions happen online. An outdated site signals an outdated business — even if your service is superior.
Web Design Makati · Senior web designer
Web design in Makati that converts visitors into customers.
A beautiful website that does not convert is an expensive brochure. I design websites for Makati businesses that look sharp, load fast, rank on Google, and turn traffic into leads — with senior, hands-on consulting from start to launch.

Sound familiar?
Four things Makati business owners say about their websites.
If any of these land, your website is costing you customers — and a redesign without strategy will not fix it.
I get traffic but nobody fills out the contact form or calls.
That is a conversion problem, not a traffic problem. Design, layout, copy, and calls-to-action all need to work together to turn visitors into leads.
My website takes forever to load on mobile.
In the Philippines, over 80% of searches happen on mobile. A slow site loses visitors before they even see your content — and Google penalises slow sites in rankings.
I paid a designer but they did not think about SEO at all.
Most designers build for visuals, not for search. A site Google cannot crawl or index properly is invisible — no matter how good it looks.
Web design Makati in plain language
Think of your website as your office lobby in the Ayala CBD.
When a potential client walks into a Makati law firm, consulting agency, or clinic, the lobby sets the tone. Clean, professional, well-organized — that builds trust before anyone says a word. Cluttered, confusing, hard to navigate — that loses the client before the first handshake.
Your website is that lobby. It is the first interaction most Makati customers have with your business. Web design is not just about aesthetics — it is about creating a structured, fast, SEO-optimized experience that guides visitors from curiosity to contact. Every layout choice, every button placement, every heading is a conversion decision. Done right, your website becomes your best salesperson — working around the clock.
Done wrong, you pay for traffic that bounces in three seconds.

Why now
Makati businesses need websites that work as hard as they do.
Makati is the financial capital of the Philippines. The businesses operating in the Ayala CBD, Salcedo Village, Legaspi Village, and Rockwell compete against the best in the country. In this market, a generic template website signals a generic business. Your website needs to match the level of professionalism your Makati clients expect.
At the same time, Google and AI search tools are raising the bar for what they consider a quality website. Core Web Vitals, mobile experience, structured data, and content depth all factor into rankings. A website built without these fundamentals is not just losing conversions — it is losing visibility. The Makati businesses that invest in professional, SEO-optimized web design now build a digital asset that compounds in value. The ones that delay keep paying for a liability.

FAQ
Real questions Makati business owners ask about web design.
How much does web design cost in Makati?
Professional web design in the Philippines ranges from PHP 30,000 to PHP 200,000+ depending on scope, features, and complexity. My engagements start at $499 USD per month for ongoing design and optimization, or project-based pricing for complete builds. For a Makati business, the right investment depends on your goals — a simple landing page costs far less than a full e-commerce build. I always scope honestly and recommend the simplest solution that achieves your business objectives.
How long does it take to design a website?
A focused landing page or brochure site can launch in 2–4 weeks. A full business website with multiple service pages, contact forms, and SEO optimization typically takes 4–8 weeks. Complex builds with e-commerce, booking systems, or custom functionality take 8–12 weeks. I always agree on a timeline before starting and provide weekly progress updates.
Will my website be SEO-optimized?
Every website I build is SEO-ready from day one — clean HTML, proper heading structure, schema markup, Core Web Vitals optimization, mobile responsiveness, and meta tags. This is not an add-on; it is built into the design process. For Makati businesses that want ongoing SEO beyond the build, I offer monthly SEO engagements that compound the value of the initial design investment.
Do I need a custom website or can I use a template?
It depends on your business. Templates work well for simple brochure sites and can save significant budget. Custom builds make sense when you need unique functionality, specific brand expression, or when your conversion funnel requires tailored user flows. I always recommend the option that gives you the best ROI — not the option that generates the biggest invoice.
Will you maintain the website after launch?
Yes. I offer ongoing maintenance plans that cover security updates, performance monitoring, content updates, and design iterations based on real user data. A website is not a one-time project — it needs continuous optimization. Most Makati businesses benefit from monthly maintenance that keeps the site fast, secure, and converting. See my case studies for examples of real client results.
