Web design and development in San Francisco
We design sites built around one question: what should the person arriving here do. Structure, copy and paths follow from that answer, not from a purchased theme filled with content.
Publilia has one office, in Florence, Italy. We serve clients in San Francisco remotely — which is how digital work has been done for a decade.
Why web design matters in San Francisco
Italian technology companies raising or selling in the Bay Area need English-language positioning that reads as native, not translated. The tell is always the same: literal translations of Italian marketing copy.
Technical audiences read documentation before marketing. A product site that cannot survive a developer's scrutiny will not get a second visit.
A site that merely exists is not a site that works. Most corporate sites have no reading hierarchy, do not say what to do next, and on mobile ask for effort nobody will spend.

FAQ
Questions about web design in San Francisco
How long does a complete site take?
Four to ten weeks depending on page count and content availability. What usually stretches the schedule is not development: it is copy and photography.
Can I update it myself?
Yes. We hand over an admin panel and a recorded training session. If you would rather not think about it, there is the annual maintenance plan.
Do you have an office in San Francisco?
No. Our only office is in Firenze, Italy. We work with clients in San Francisco remotely.
