A buyer in Pasadena opens your homepage on her phone between two meetings. She gives it a few seconds. If the headline is vague, the page drags, or the contact form asks for too much, she moves on to the next result and never tells you why.
Référenceur is a web design agency that Los Angeles companies can brief in English or French, and we build for that buyer. We design and write sites that load fast, explain your offer in plain American English, and make the next step obvious. For companies that also sell to French-speaking partners, we add a clean French version without creating duplicate content problems.
We have built business websites for more than 15 years, and our clients rate us 4.7/5 across 107 Google reviews. Google has certified us as a Partner, and we also work with Microsoft Advertising, Semrush, and HubSpot. Get a free assessment and we will review your current site the way a skeptical Southern California prospect would.
Why Your Website Carries More Weight in Los Angeles
Los Angeles County produces close to $1 trillion in annual output, making it the largest county economy in the country, according to a regional analysis published by SCAG in January 2026. Health care, professional services, manufacturing, logistics, and media each employ hundreds of thousands of people across the county.
Entertainment and information work is especially concentrated here. The county held 83% of the information jobs in the SCAG region, close to 190,000 positions in August 2025. Producers, brands, and agencies in that world shortlist vendors by browsing portfolios long before they pick up the phone.
International companies are part of that picture. French companies accounted for roughly 82,600 jobs in California in 2022, and the French-American Chamber of Commerce opened a Los Angeles chapter in November 2024. Many of those firms need one site that sells to American customers and still reassures headquarters in Paris or Montreal.
What Los Angeles Companies Should Expect From a Web Design Agency
We build on WordPress when your team wants to publish on its own. When the project calls for it, we develop custom features: a connected product catalog, a client portal, a quote builder, or an ERP integration. We make that call with you, based on how your business actually sells.
| Deliverable | What we do | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Sales-focused discovery | Priority offers, U.S. buyer personas, common objections, lead goals | A site planned around revenue |
| Native U.S. English copy | Written from scratch, U.S. units and date formats, a California tone | Copy that never reads like a translation |
| Optional French version | Key pages for French-speaking partners, correct hreflang tags | Two audiences served without SEO conflicts |
| Proof pages | Case studies, certifications, team bios, a U.S. address if you have one | Trust with cautious buyers |
| Accessibility | Color contrast, keyboard navigation, alt text, WCAG checkpoints | A site every visitor can use |
| Privacy setup | Privacy policy page, cookie consent, opt-out links where required | A foundation your attorney can review |
| Speed and tracking | Core Web Vitals, tracked forms, calls, and bookings | Every lead tied to its source |
| Training | Video walkthrough and a written update guide | Independence after launch |
Accessibility deserves attention in the U.S. Seyfarth Shaw counted 3,117 federal website accessibility lawsuits in 2025, up 27% from the year before. We build WCAG best practices into the design from the first wireframe, though that never replaces a legal review.
The same caution applies to privacy. Depending on your size and activity, state privacy laws such as the CCPA/CPRA may require specific notices and opt-out options. We handle the technical setup. This isn’t legal advice; check the wording with your attorney.
Our 4-Step Process
Here is how a typical Los Angeles website design project runs. Timelines are estimates and depend mostly on the number of pages and integrations.
- Assessment and scope: we review your site, three local competitors, and the questions your sales team hears most. This often takes one to two weeks.
- Structure and mockups: sitemap, contact paths, and page layouts, approved over video calls. Expect two to four weeks for this phase.
- Copy and development: native copy, build, mobile testing, and speed and accessibility checks. Many projects need one to two months.
- Launch and follow-up: redirects, indexing checks, team training, then a review of the first leads the new site brings in.
You get the exact schedule after the assessment. A 15-page service site and an online store tied to inventory software simply don’t move at the same pace.
From Burbank to Long Beach: Different Businesses, Different Websites
The county has 88 cities, and companies across them want very different things from a website. Here are profiles we plan for, with the build that fits each one. These examples are illustrative, not client stories.
| Business profile | Main goal | What we build |
|---|---|---|
| Post-production or VFX studio in Burbank or Culver City | Win work from producers and streamers | Fast video portfolio, pages by specialty, a project brief form |
| Consumer brand with a showroom in Downtown LA | Sign retailers and wholesale buyers | B2B product pages, a dealer area, a line sheet request flow |
| Startup in Silicon Beach, from Santa Monica to Playa Vista | Book demos and reassure investors | Custom build, use-case pages, HubSpot integration |
| Importer or 3PL near the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach | Land steady distribution contracts | Service pages, coverage maps, quote requests |
| U.S. subsidiary of a European or Quebec group | Look local while staying on brand | U.S. English site first, French pages for headquarters |
| Law or advisory firm in Century City | Earn trust before the first meeting | Practice area pages, attorney bios, online scheduling |

Why Work With Référenceur as Your Bilingual Web Design Partner
Let’s be upfront: we don’t have an office in Los Angeles or anywhere else in the U.S. Your designers, writers, and developers sit in our two European offices, in Francorchamps, Belgium, and Wemperhardt, Luxembourg. Projects run through video calls, shared screens, and monthly reporting, with one project lead from start to finish.
The time difference is manageable with planning. We schedule calls at a time that works for both time zones, in slots agreed in advance. Between calls, approvals move forward in writing, and you get a clear summary after every milestone.
Bilingual web design matters most for a specific kind of client, and it shapes how we approach web design for international companies. If your company reports to a European or Canadian parent, or if your founders think in French, you can brief us in French and receive copy written natively for American buyers. Nothing gets lost between the two.
Your site is also built by people who run SEO, paid search, and AI search optimization every day. That means it is planned to be found, not just to look good. We don’t claim any U.S. clients yet. Our published work is with European clients such as Isolpur, Lupulus, Auto-école Georges, and Menuiserie Rosen. Browse our case studies.
Bring Traffic to Your New Site
A new website does not bring visitors on its own. Our SEO services in Los Angeles attract people already searching for what you sell. For leads from launch day, Google Ads management in Los Angeles targets the cities and ZIP codes you actually serve.
Selling in Northern California too? See our web design agency in San Francisco page. Our full approach is described on our web design agency page, and every service we offer locally is listed on our digital marketing agency in Los Angeles page.

Web Design FAQ for Los Angeles Businesses
When Could My New Website Go Live?
A bilingual service site often takes two to three months. A product catalog, a client portal, or software integrations add time. In our experience, how quickly feedback comes back is the biggest factor.
How Do You Price a Website Project?
The price depends on the number of pages, languages, features, and how much copy we write. We don’t publish standard rates. Once we’ve assessed your needs, we send an itemized proposal priced in U.S. dollars.
Can a Remote Agency Really Design for the Los Angeles Market?
Your customers judge the site, not the agency’s address. We research your local competitors, write in native U.S. English, and test the site on the devices your buyers use. Meetings simply happen by video.
Do I Need a French Version of My Site?
Not always. If you sell only to American customers, an English site is enough. A French version makes sense when partners, investors, or part of your clientele are French speakers.
How Will I Know If the Site Brings in Business?
Before launch, we track forms, calls, and booked meetings. You can then compare leads from the new site with the old one. A monthly report turns those numbers into next steps.
