ServicesWebsite redesign

Website redesigns that fix the message, the speed, and the next step.

Carlsbad Web & AI rebuilds dated or underperforming websites for North County San Diego businesses. We fix the message first, then the speed and the next step, and hand back a Next.js site you can update yourself. Redesigns start at $449 plus $29 monthly. We do not rescue complex custom applications.

01 — Who this is for

Built for these people.

  • Businesses whose site was built five or more years ago and shows it
  • Owners stuck on Wix, Squarespace, or an aging WordPress page builder
  • Companies whose product changed but whose website did not
  • Anyone whose traffic arrives, reads nothing, and leaves

02 — What it sounds like

If you have said one of these, you are in the right place.

  • People visit and nobody calls.

  • The site is slow on a phone and I have watched customers give up on it.

  • The homepage still describes a business we stopped being two years ago.

  • Every page just ends. There is no obvious next step.

03 — What you end up with

The outcome.

A site that says what you actually do now, rebuilt without the page-builder weight that slowed the old one, and ends every page with one obvious next step.

Live, inspectable build. Measured business outcome pending client approval.

What this is not

  • Not a reskin. If the message is wrong, new paint will not fix it.
  • Not a rescue of a broken custom application. We rebuild marketing sites.
  • Not a rankings guarantee. We protect what you have with careful redirects, but no one controls Google.
  • Not a content service. We restructure and sharpen; we do not rewrite your whole library.

04 — What you get

Everything that ships.

  • 01

    A written audit of what is failing now: message, speed, structure, and next step

  • 02

    A new information architecture — which pages exist and what each one is for

  • 03

    A custom design and a hand-built Next.js rebuild

  • 04

    URL mapping and 301 redirects so existing links and rankings survive

  • 05

    Titles, descriptions, and schema rewritten for every page

  • 06

    A CMS you can update without a developer

  • 07

    Analytics and conversion tracking wired in before launch

05 — Proof

Work you can open and inspect.

    EllaCash ATM

    Dispensary cash access - hand-built static site

    A dispensary cash-access company lifted out of a dated Elementor page builder into a hand-built static site: the Remote ATM flow explained step by step, a two-step fit check, and a compliance section written to be read closely.

    The Gilded Fisherman

    Coastal boutique - Shopify OS 2.0

    An Old Florida boutique on Anna Maria Island: editorial navy-and-gilt layouts, four named departments, and a page for every one-of-a-kind piece — shipped as a custom Shopify theme the owner runs herself.

06 — How it runs

Four steps, in this order.

  1. Step 01

    Audit

    We go through the current site the way a customer does, then the way a crawler does. You get a ranked, written list of what it is costing you.

  2. Step 02

    Rewrite the structure

    Pages, headings, and the order of the argument, settled before any visual design. This is where most of the value in a redesign actually is.

  3. Step 03

    Design and rebuild

    A custom design and a hand-built Next.js site, with every old URL mapped to a new one as we go.

  4. Step 04

    Launch and watch

    We ship with redirects in place, verify in Search Console, and watch the first weeks closely for anything the migration missed.

07 — Scope and price

What it costs, and where it stops.

A redesign runs on the same Website plan: $449 to build plus $29 a month, covering up to five core pages, two rounds of revisions, and a CMS. Larger sites, catalogs, and complicated migrations are scoped and quoted before we start.

Anything outside that gets quoted in writing before we start, not discovered halfway through. Every plan and every number is published.

08 — Questions

Before you ask.

How long does a redesign take?
Two to four weeks from kickoff for a standard five-page site, once content is in hand. Migrations with a lot of existing pages take longer, because mapping every old URL to a new one is careful work.
Can we keep our existing content?
Usually, and we would rather sharpen what you have than start over. We restructure the headings, cut what is not earning its place, and tell you the few things that genuinely need writing.
What happens to our old site?
You get an archive of it, and you own everything in the new one: code, content, domain, and keys. Nothing lands on a platform you cannot walk away from.
What happens after launch?
The $29 a month covers hosting, security updates, backups, and small changes. After a redesign we also watch Search Console for the first weeks to catch anything the migration missed.
