Web design for businesses in Berkeley

Berkeley has 121,749 residents according to the US Census Bureau estimates for 2024, which makes it the 53rd largest city in California. That puts it 240th in the national ranking of cities. In California we cover 76 cities.

Word of mouth still does much of the selling in a smaller city. The website is where people go to check what they were told, so it should confirm it within seconds. Vértigo is based in Murcia, Spain, usually 9 hours ahead of Berkeley. We work with clients abroad by video call, in English. Nearby, we also cover Oakland, Richmond and San Francisco.

How the website changes with your business

  • Car repair shops

    Book a slot, see guide prices and call with one tap. A simple, quick site the customer can use from the roadside.

  • Restaurants

    A menu that reads well on a phone, photos that make you hungry and booking in two steps. If people have to download a PDF to see the dishes, tables are lost.

  • Hotels

    Large photos, clear prices and direct booking in a few steps. A slow hotel website hands the booking to the portals.

Everything that goes into a custom website in Berkeley

We start with the content. Once it is clear what has to be said and in what order, designing and coding go much faster and turn out better.

  1. 01

    Strategy and structure

    A site map and a script for each page. It is the least showy part of the project and the one that weighs most on the result.

  2. 02

    Custom design

    Typefaces, colors and photos chosen for your company. The aim is that someone would recognize your website with the logo covered up.

  3. 03

    Animation and 3D

    Movement tied to scrolling, 3D pieces and details that make a website stay in the memory, always in service of the message and without slowing the load.

  4. 04

    Fast, clean development

    Less weight, fewer third-party parts and fewer things to maintain. A well-coded website gives you few scares over the years.

  5. 05

    SEO from day one

    We design with the way people will search for you in mind. Each service gets its own page and each page answers one specific search.

  6. 06

    Online store and content panel

    Shops designed for buying on a phone, with payment in a few steps, and a panel to keep the catalog up to date.

From an ordinary website to one made to order

This is an example of what changes with a design of your own. The content is the same: an architecture studio and its work. What differs is how it is shown.

  1. We put the content and the visitor's route in order.
  2. We show you the design and adjust it with you.
  3. We code it and test it on real phones.
  4. It goes live ready for Google.

Illustrative simulation with stock photographs. Every project has its own design, figures and timings.

What building a website with Vértigo is like

  1. 01

    First call

    You tell us what you do, who you sell to and which websites you like. With that we draw up the site map.

  2. 02

    Design

    You see how it will look before it exists. Changes are made here, while they are still cheap.

  3. 03

    Development and testing

    We assemble it, fill it with content and check it on different phones and browsers.

  4. 04

    Handover and improvement

    It goes live, we measure what people do and correct whatever does not work as expected.

Talk to the team
How much does a website cost in Berkeley?

It depends on what the site has to do. A corporate website with a handful of pages does not cost the same as an online store with hundreds of products or a site with 3D. After a first conversation we send you a fixed-price quote, with nothing added later.

Do you work with templates?

No. The design is always our own and always made for you. What changes from one project to another is the technology underneath: sometimes a well-known content management system is the sensible choice, and sometimes the site is better coded entirely to order.

Will I be able to change the texts and photos myself?

Yes. We hand the site over with a simple panel for editing texts, images, products or blog posts, and we show you how to use it. For day-to-day changes you do not depend on us, and if you get stuck you can write to the team.

Is the website ready for Google when it launches?

Yes. The people who do SEO for our clients take part in the web projects, so page structure, titles, addresses and structured data are settled before launch. That gives Google what it needs to read the site. How high it ranks then depends on the competition and on ongoing work.

What is the difference between a custom website and a template?

A template makes you fit your business into a shape that already exists. With a custom site it is the other way round: first you decide what has to be said, then the way of saying it is designed. The result looks like your company and nobody else.

Can I see the design before you start coding?

Yes, and for us it is not optional. We code nothing you have not seen and approved first. You get the whole design for desktop and mobile through a private link, we go through it on a call and adjust what you ask for.
