Website Designer Miami — Custom WordPress & Shopify

Miami businesses need a website that works across two audiences at once — the local buyer who wants trust and craft, and the tourist or seasonal visitor who wants the essentials in three seconds. I build WordPress and Shopify sites for Miami small businesses, DTC brands, hospitality operators, and real-estate teams that need both.

Remote-first, EST-native, and I’ve worked with Florida businesses on paid custom builds for years. Direct communication with the person writing the code — no account managers, no agency retainer, no hourly billing surprises.

Who I build for in Miami

Hospitality and tourism — hotels, boutique properties, tour operators, dining, event venues serving Miami Beach, South Beach, Wynwood, Coconut Grove, Coral Gables
DTC brands — beauty, wellness, food, apparel with a Miami base shipping nationally or internationally
Real estate — brokerages, individual agents, property management, vacation rentals
Latin American cross-border ecommerce — Miami is the US bridge for LATAM ecommerce; bilingual EN/ES stores are a specialty
Trades and services — contractors, marine services, hurricane-prep, pool services, landscape
Professional services — legal, accounting, medical, financial, with EST-native compliance considerations

What Miami buyers expect in 2026

Miami is a mobile-first city. Traffic from your website is 70-80% mobile before you even factor in tourists searching on the go. That means:

Sub-2-second load time on 4G — otherwise you lose the walk-in intent to whoever ranked below you
Click-to-call and click-to-map above the fold, not buried in a footer
Bilingual EN/ES for any business serving South Florida’s Spanish-speaking market — automatic language detection preferred
Google Business Profile alignment — schema markup on your site that matches your GBP data so local rankings compound
Booking or quote flows optimised for phone — a Miami visitor won’t complete a 6-field form on a phone if they can just call
Seasonal messaging — hurricane season, tourist season, snowbird season all deserve their own hero variants

Frequently asked questions

Do you work in-person in Miami?

No — remote-first. I’m based in Pakistan (GMT+5), and my working hours overlap with Miami’s EST morning. Expect replies before 10 AM Miami time on weekdays. WhatsApp is fastest for quick questions; email works for anything longer. Live video calls happen easily on overlapping hours.

Do you build bilingual English / Spanish sites for Miami?

Yes. Bilingual setup with automatic language detection based on browser preference is a $500-$1,500 add-on on any site. Full multilingual with translated CMS, RTL support for Arabic, and per-language SEO is $1,500-$3,500 depending on page count.

Do you set up Google Business Profile and reviews?

GBP setup and verification is included in most site builds at no extra charge. Ongoing review-generation tools (Podium, Trustpilot integrations) are separate.

Can you migrate my Wix or Squarespace site to WordPress?

Yes. Migration is a fixed-price engagement — $1,500 to $8,000 depending on page count, content, and SEO complexity. 301 redirect map delivered, SEO preserved, no traffic loss on cutover.

What about hurricane season and site reliability?

All my client sites run on managed hosting (Cloudways, Kinsta, WP Engine) with automated backups. Even if a Miami power outage takes your office offline, the site stays up. Backup restoration is part of the maintenance retainer ($99/month optional).

How do I start?

Send a brief with subject line “Miami” — I’ll reply within 24 hours. Include: business name, what you do, target audience, timeline, and whether you have existing website / hosting.
