About
Built different.
On purpose.
fleurandespoir is a web design studio focused on one thing: giving small businesses websites that perform like the big ones. Fast, distinctive, and built on technology that most agencies reserve for enterprise clients.

Our Story
Why we exist.
Most small businesses are told they have two options: a cheap template on Wix or Squarespace, or an expensive agency that treats them like a low-priority account. Neither is good enough.
fleurandespoir exists in the middle — done-for-you websites built on the same technology used by the world's best digital products, at a price that makes sense for independent businesses.
We work with coffee shops, interior designers, photographers, restaurants, law firms, and anyone else who takes their brand seriously. Every website we build is custom, fast, and fully manageable — without requiring you to touch a single line of code.
Precision
Every pixel, every line of code — intentional. No templates, no shortcuts.
Craft
We build on the same stack used by the world's best digital products.
Partnership
Your business matters. We treat every project like it's our own.

The honest comparison
Why not WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace?
They're not bad tools. But they make compromises that show up in your Google ranking, your page speed, and your security. Here's how they compare.
Page Speed
Website Builders
3–6 seconds (average WordPress on shared hosting)
fleurandespoir
Under 1 second (static generation + global CDN)
Faster sites rank higher on Google. 53% of users leave if a page takes more than 3 seconds.
SEO
Website Builders
Plugin-dependent (Yoast, RankMath — working around platform limits)
fleurandespoir
Built into the framework — metadata, sitemaps, structured data, canonical URLs all native
Better technical SEO from day one, without monthly plugin subscriptions.
Security
Website Builders
WordPress is the most hacked CMS — plugin vulnerabilities, /wp-admin exposure
fleurandespoir
No plugin ecosystem to exploit. Smaller attack surface by design.
Your reputation and your clients' data are protected.

The result
What this means for your business.
Faster load = higher Google ranking
Google's algorithm rewards fast websites. A site that loads in under a second ranks significantly higher than one that takes 4 seconds — regardless of how good your content is.
No plugins = no security holes
Every WordPress plugin is a potential vulnerability. Our websites have no plugin ecosystem to exploit — meaning your site, your clients' data, and your reputation stay protected.
Custom design = you don't look like everyone else
Template websites look like template websites. Visitors notice, even if they can't articulate why. A custom-built site signals quality before a single word is read.
One-time cost = no subscription creep
Squarespace, Wix, and WordPress hosting all charge monthly. Our websites are a one-time investment — no recurring platform fees, no surprise price increases.
