Web & Product Design in San Cristóbal de las Casas

With 183,509 residents, San Cristóbal de las Casas is one of Chiapas's main commercial centers. Tuxtla Gutiérrez is 51 km away. That's close enough for some customers to compare, but searches that name San Cristóbal de las Casas are where you need to show up first.

Of San Cristóbal de las Casas's 45,756 households, 38.8% have a home internet connection. That's 6.7 points below the 45.5% average across the Chiapas cities we cover. 35.3% have a computer at home. For your website, the phone comes first. So we design for small screens first, with light images, short copy and your WhatsApp always in reach.

Frequently asked questions

Does my website need to be built for phones in San Cristóbal de las Casas?

Yes. In San Cristóbal de las Casas, 38.8% of households have internet and 35.3% have a computer, so phones and computers both matter. We design for small screens first: short copy, big buttons and your WhatsApp always in reach. Then we check that it works on a computer too.

Do I need a website if I already sell on WhatsApp or Facebook?

For a business in San Cristóbal de las Casas, it isn't one or the other. Your site is what shows up when someone searches for you on Google, and from there they can message you on WhatsApp in one tap. For Mechanova, a machinery importer in Mexico, we built exactly that: an online catalog with quotes handled over WhatsApp, because that trade negotiates by message.

How fast should my website load?

Google recommends that the main content appears within 2.5 seconds. That measure is called LCP, and it's part of the Core Web Vitals. In San Cristóbal de las Casas, 29,625 households have no computer, so many of your customers will arrive on mobile data. That means light images and no heavy video when the page opens.

How much does a website cost for a business in San Cristóbal de las Casas?

It depends on how many sections you need, whether you'll sell online, and whether the site has to connect to other systems. We don't publish fixed prices, because a five-section site doesn't cost the same as a store with hundreds of products. Tell us what you sell and we'll send a written proposal with scope and cost.

Can you build my site if you're not in San Cristóbal de las Casas?

Yes. We work remotely: meetings happen over video, and updates and questions go through WhatsApp or email. You review each stage on a preview link before anything goes live. We don't need to visit San Cristóbal de las Casas. We need photos of your business and some time to hear how you sell.
