Makati is the country's financial center. Banks, law firms, consultancies, embassies and multinational offices fill the towers along Ayala Avenue and Paseo de Roxas, while Poblacion, Salcedo Village and Legazpi Village hold restaurants, clinics, studios and boutique firms.
In a city like this, your website is judged against the best. A client comparing two firms will open both sites before making a call. If yours is slow, dated or hard to read on a phone, the meeting goes to the other firm.
I'm Aldrian Loyola, a web developer in the Philippines. I work with Makati businesses entirely online.
How I work with Makati clients
I do not keep an office in Makati, and I say so plainly. The work is done remotely:
- We talk by video call, email or message, at a time that suits your schedule.
- You receive a written scope and a fixed quote.
- You review progress on a private preview link.
- At launch, every login and file is handed to your company.
For a busy office this is usually quicker than arranging meetings, and it is one reason my quotes stay reasonable for the quality you get.

What a Makati business should expect from its website
- Credibility in the first five seconds. Clean design, clear statement of what you do, real photos.
- Speed. Pages that open at once on office networks and mobile data.
- A phone-first layout. Decision makers check sites between meetings, on their phones.
- One clear next step on every page: call, book, inquire or download.
- Search basics done properly, so the firm appears for its own name and its services.
- Privacy handled correctly. Forms that collect only what is needed, with a clear notice.
- Ownership. Domain, hosting and code in the company's name.
Platform: custom-coded or WordPress
I build both ways and recommend based on how you will use the site.
Custom-coded suits a firm that wants the fastest, most secure site and rarely changes its pages.
WordPress suits a firm whose team will publish news, articles, job openings or announcements regularly. See WordPress development in Makati.
Recent work
- Origin Code Technology: design and WordPress development for a software and staffing company, with a confident first impression and clear services.
- National Business Concepts: a full revamp for an accounting and consulting firm, with services, team, workshops and contact pages.

Each case study shows the screens, the work and the measured results.
Being found by Makati clients
People search by district: "law firm Makati", "dentist Salcedo Village", "accounting firm Ayala Avenue". To appear for those, Google needs to understand where you are and what you do.
I set up the website side: consistent business details, a page for each service, location wording that names your building and nearby landmarks, fast loading and a mobile-ready layout. For the rest, see local SEO for Makati businesses.
How a project runs
- Discovery. Your firm, your clients and what the site must achieve.
- Scope and fixed quote, in writing.
- Design preview on a real link, with rounds for feedback from your team.
- Build and testing across phones, tablets and desktops.
- Launch on your domain.
- Handover and support.
A four to six page business website usually takes one to two weeks once content is ready. Larger corporate sites take longer, and the timeline is stated upfront.
What to prepare
- Your company profile, service descriptions and any existing brochures.
- Leadership names, titles and professional photos.
- Logo files and brand guidelines.
- Office address, landmarks and contact numbers for each department.
- Two or three websites, from any industry, whose look you admire.
Missing pieces are fine. I will tell you what is essential and what can follow after launch.
If budget is the main concern
