Web design in Hermosa Beach, in short: I build websites for trades and service businesses here — one developer based in Hawthorne, $250 a month with no setup fee, hosting and changes included, and a fixed price after one call. I'll come to the shop or the job site rather than set up a video call.
What's different about Hermosa Beach
Hermosa packs a lot of businesses into a small footprint, which means the map results are crowded and your Google Business Profile does as much work as the site does. The two have to agree on your name, address and hours or both get discounted.
A lot of the trade here is walk-up and word-of-mouth — somebody's been given your name and is checking whether you look real. That visitor needs proof and a phone number, not a sales funnel.
I'm ten minutes away, so site visits are easy and I've probably already seen your competitors' sites.
What you actually get
- A site built by one person. You talk to whoever writes the code. Nothing gets lost in a handoff and there's no account layer to fund.
- A fixed price, before you commit. $250 a month with no setup fee, hosting and changes included; more if you want the automation and the Google side. One call and you get the exact number for your job. Silence on price is the most common reason a local business never gets called, and that applies to me too — so that's the number.
- Built for a phone. Most of your traffic is someone standing outside a problem. The number is tappable and reachable from anywhere on the page.
- Findable, not just pretty. Proper markup, a real sitemap, and a Google Business Profile that agrees with the site. See how Google finds your site for what that means in practice.
- Readable by AI assistants. An increasing share of "who should I call in Hermosa Beach" now gets answered by ChatGPT or an AI Overview instead of a list of links. That's a different job, and it's included.
Trades I work with
Most of my work is with trades and service businesses. If yours is on this list, the page for it covers what specifically tends to go wrong online for that trade:
- Websites for plumbers
- Websites for electricians
- Websites for hvac contractors
- Websites for roofers
- Websites for landscapers
- Websites for general contractors
- Websites for pool services
- Websites for pest control companies
Not on the list? It probably still applies — call and I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right person for it.

Common questions
What does it cost?
A site is $250 a month with no setup fee, which covers hosting, upkeep and changes — no separate hosting bill and no charge to change a phone number. Adding automation is $700–1,000+ to set up, then $250 a month. The whole path — site, automation and the Google side — is $2,000+ then $500 a month. You get the exact number for your job after one call, before you commit to anything.
I already have a Google Business Profile. Is that enough?
It's the more important half for a local trade, but it isn't enough on its own. The profile gets you into the map; the site is what convinces someone to call rather than tapping the next result.
How fast can it be live?
A focused site for a service business is usually two to three weeks from the first call. You'll get the date in writing before anything starts.
