Web design in Burbank, CA.
Media City Design is a boutique web design studio in Burbank, California. We build custom websites for small businesses, nonprofits, and local shops — then keep them fast, secure, and effective long after launch. No templates, no agencies-of-agencies, no monthly retainer traps.
A web designer around the corner, not around the world.
We're in Burbank
Our studio is at 200 W Magnolia Blvd, a few blocks from Downtown Burbank. When you hire a local web designer, meetings happen in person, the phone gets answered, and the person building your site actually understands the community you're trying to reach.
Built for real speed
Every website we design in Burbank is built for Core Web Vitals — the exact speed and performance signals Google uses to rank pages. Fast sites don't just rank higher; they convert more visitors into customers. We measure it before we ship.
Hosting & care included
Every site we build in Burbank comes with managed hosting, automated backups, security patches, and monthly updates. You don't have to shop for a host, learn a control panel, or worry about downtime. It's all handled. See our hosting plans.
Websites for the businesses that actually run Burbank.
Over the last few years we've built more than 30 websites for local businesses and nonprofits in Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, and greater Los Angeles. Here's what a typical project looks like.
Small business websites
Custom-designed sites for shops, restaurants, service businesses, and studios. Every site is mobile-first, SEO-optimized, and ready to grow with you. Ideal for Burbank businesses that need a real online presence without a corporate feel.
Nonprofit websites
We've built websites for Friends of the Burbank Public Library, Burbank Arts & Education Foundation, Burbank Housing Corporation, and Home Again LA. Nonprofit-friendly pricing, donation-ready, volunteer-recruiting.
Ecommerce & online stores
Sell products online with a proper cart, secure checkout, inventory tracking, and Stripe payments. Every ecommerce site we build in Burbank comes with the full setup — no plugins-on-plugins, no hidden fees.
Marketing & SEO systems
Beyond the website itself: local SEO setup, Google Business Profile optimization, contact forms that route to your inbox, and analytics so you can actually see what's working. We help Burbank businesses show up in local search.
Simple process, no surprises.
Free consultation
We talk about your business, what you need the site to do, and what your budget looks like. Thirty minutes, no obligation. If we're not the right fit for your project, we'll tell you and point you somewhere better.
Fixed-price proposal
Within a week of our call, you get a written proposal: what we'll build, when it ships, and exactly what it costs. No hourly-billing surprises. What you agree to is what you pay.
Launch & support
We build, you review, we ship. After launch, your site is hosted, backed up, and maintained by us. You focus on running your business — not fighting WordPress plugins at 11 PM.
Web design across the LA area.
Based in Burbank at 200 W Magnolia Blvd, we work with businesses across Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, North Hollywood, Studio City, Toluca Lake, Sherman Oaks, Silver Lake, Downtown LA, and the greater Los Angeles County area. In-person meetings for local clients, video calls for everyone else.
Questions we get a lot.
How much does a website cost in Burbank?
Most of our small business website projects fall between $2,500 and $8,000, depending on the number of pages, whether you need ecommerce, and how much custom design work is involved. Every proposal is fixed-price — you know the number before we start. Nonprofits get discounted pricing.
How long does it take to build a website?
A standard small business website takes 3-6 weeks from kickoff to launch. Ecommerce and larger sites take 6-10 weeks. We give you a timeline in your proposal and stick to it.
Do you offer hosting and maintenance after the site launches?
Yes — every site we build in Burbank comes with managed hosting, automated backups, SSL, security patches, and monthly maintenance. Plans start at $25/month. See our full hosting plans on the /hosting page.
Can you help my site rank on Google for local searches?
Yes. Every website we build is SEO-optimized from the start: proper title tags, meta descriptions, LocalBusiness schema markup, sitemap, mobile-first design, and Core Web Vitals optimization. We also help set up your Google Business Profile and can advise on local content strategy.
Do you work with businesses outside Burbank?
Yes — we work with businesses across Los Angeles County and remotely with clients anywhere in the US. Most of our clients are in Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, and the greater LA area, but we've built sites for organizations in Sacramento, San Diego, and beyond.
What if I already have a website that needs to be redesigned?
Redesigns are a big part of what we do. We'll audit your existing site, identify what's working and what isn't, and rebuild it with modern design, better performance, and clearer messaging. Content migration is included.
