Web design in Galveston that gets you more calls.
GatorByte builds websites for Galveston businesses that live on visitors, from restaurants on the Strand to beach rentals on the West End. We are a coastal studio in Mandeville, Louisiana, and we work with island businesses over calls and live previews.

What a Galveston website has to do.
Galveston runs on tourism, the cruise terminals at the Port of Galveston, UTMB, and a historic downtown full of restaurants, galleries, and shops, with short-term rentals and charters busy through the warm months.
Most of your customers are not from the island. They search from Houston or from their cruise hotel, often on a phone, and they want hours, location, parking, menus, and booking right away. Seasonal swings and storm closures mean your site also needs to be easy to update, which is why small updates are part of our monthly plan.

Questions
Web design in Galveston: common questions.
How much does a website cost in Galveston?
Our websites are $1,000 to launch plus $100/month for managed hosting, maintenance, and small updates, the same in Galveston as on the Northshore. That covers a custom 1-3 page site with a contact form and click-to-call. Extra pages, photography, and logo design are quoted up front.
Do you work with businesses in Galveston if you are based in Louisiana?
Yes. GatorByte is based in Mandeville, Louisiana, and we work with Galveston businesses remotely: video calls, shared previews of the site as it is built, and a direct line to the people building it. There is no account manager in between.
Will my Galveston business show up on Google?
Every build includes local SEO foundations: fast prerendered pages, structured data, and help setting up or optimizing your Google Business Profile. If you serve Jamaica Beach, Texas City, and La Marque, we can add service-area pages for those towns as an add-on. We do not promise rankings, and anyone who does is guessing.
Can my Galveston rental or charter take bookings on the site?
Yes. We can connect the booking or reservation system you already use, or add a simple request form if you prefer to confirm by phone. Either way, the site shows availability details and policies clearly so guests are not left guessing.
How do you handle closures for storms or the off season?
Send us a text or email and we update the site, usually the same day. We can also add a banner for weather closures or changed hours, so visitors see it before they make the drive across the causeway.
