Ten years of building websites for South African businesses, now available to American ones. Our United States branch trades at x3webdesign.com, and Luado is the one building it.
X3WEB has built websites, online stores and advertising systems for more than two thousand businesses since 2015, almost all of them South African. We are now taking that same team and the same way of working to businesses in the United States, under x3webdesign.com.
Nothing about the work changes. The same developers write the code, the same server team keeps it running, and the same people answer the phone. What changes is who we are building it for.
Luado is a designer and the business development side of X3WEB, and the United States branch is his. He handles the first conversation, scopes the project, stays on it through the build, and is the person an American client deals with from enquiry to launch.
He is young, he is relentless, and he has failed at more things by thirty than most people attempt in a lifetime — which is exactly why he is the one opening a new market. Every one of those failures taught him something he now uses on client work.
He is set on becoming one of the best AI developers in the business. Nobody here bets against him.
The same services our South African clients have had for ten years, delivered the same way.
Custom HTML, CSS, JavaScript and PHP rather than a page builder. Faster, more secure, and yours to take anywhere. No monthly platform fee holding your site hostage.
Online stores built around the products and the checkout, wired to the payment processors American customers already trust.
Search and social campaigns run by people who only do that. Proper conversion tracking from day one, and reporting that explains what actually happened.
Managed by our own server team rather than handed to a reseller. When something breaks at 3am someone is already fixing it.
Domain, hosting, code, ad accounts, analytics — registered in your name from the start. We have never held a client’s assets to keep their business and we never will.
Fourteen specialists, each doing one job properly. Nobody goes on holiday and leaves your project sitting for two weeks.
We would rather tell you this on the first page than have you find it out later.
The team is in South Africa, with one member in Austria, and everybody works from their own home office. There is no American office and we are not going to photograph a rented one and pretend otherwise.
Our afternoon is your morning. South African working hours line up with the start of the American business day on the East Coast, so calls and approvals happen live rather than overnight.
A South African team building to the same standard costs materially less than a comparable American agency. That is the honest reason this works, and it is your advantage, not a catch.
Ask any agency you are considering where their developers actually sit and who owns your domain. A lot of American agencies subcontract the build overseas without telling you. We are simply saying it up front.
Whether you end up working with us or not, these are the questions that separate a website you own from one you rent.
It should be yours, from day one. If an agency registers your domain in their own name you do not own your address, and moving away later becomes a negotiation instead of a transfer.
Template builders charge every month forever and most will not let you export a working site. A hand-coded website is a set of files you can move to any host on earth.
Plenty of agencies quote American rates and subcontract the build abroad. That is not automatically bad work, but you should be told. Ask directly and see whether you get a straight answer.
Get the after-launch position in writing: who fixes a bug, what hosting costs, what a content change costs, and how fast they respond. This is where most of the unpleasant surprises live.
Not a portfolio of mockups. Live URLs you can open, load on your phone and click around.
Conversion tracking, call tracking and analytics should be set up at launch, not bolted on when you start asking where the leads came from.
Tell Luado what your business needs. You will get a straight answer about whether we are the right fit, usually within one business day.
We’ll get back to you within 1 business day.
