Clients & Projects

I'm Kenzo, and I run BraneBox, a boutique web design studio in the Philippines. I build custom websites on Next.js and Vercel, with SEO built in from day one.

Every project has a fixed price, starting at $590, and a 90+ PageSpeed guarantee. Pay once or pay monthly. I do the work myself. No juniors, no handoffs, and you can check my scores and reviews yourself.

Every website gets judged twice.

A website viewed two ways, as a visitor sees it and as raw code

First by people. In a few seconds, visitors decide whether you look credible and worth their time.

Then by Google. It watches what those people do next. Do they stay, read, click, come back?

Most agencies treat design and SEO as two separate jobs. I treat them as one, because Google ranks what people enjoy using.

Renting attention vs. owning it

Ads stop working the day you stop paying. A website that ranks keeps bringing people in, month after month. One is rent. The other is an asset you own.

The Core Problem

Your Website Has Two Audiences. Most Agencies Only Know One.

Most web design agencies in the Philippines split the work. Designers make it pretty, SEO people make it rank, and nobody owns the result. You end up with a beautiful site buried on page six, or a keyword-stuffed one that drives people away.

I build for both at once. The design earns trust in seconds. The structure underneath helps Google find you and send you people who are ready to buy.

A DNA double helix representing the inseparable strands of web design and SEO

What your website should do for you

Brings in leads while you sleep

Shows up on Google the moment a buyer searches for what you offer.

Sells before the first call

Prospects show up already trusting you, so sales calls get shorter and easier.

Backs up your prices

A fast, polished site makes premium pricing feel earned, so fewer people haggle.

Traffic you own

Organic visitors keep coming month after month, and you don't pay for every click.

Working with me remotely

You pay a fixed price in USD. Pay once, with half to start and the other half only after you've approved the finished site. Or pay monthly.

You own everything once it's paid: code, design files, domain, and hosting.

And you can check my work before you spend a cent. PageSpeed scores, live sites, and Google reviews are all public.

The Build

What I Build, and What I Don't

Custom websites, redesigns, and landing pages that convert. Everything runs on Next.js and Vercel, the same stack trusted by some of the biggest companies online.

What that means for you: pages load almost instantly, Google can read every word, and you won't need a rebuild when your company grows.

0+

PageSpeed Guarantee

Slow sites lose sales. Every project ships with a guaranteed 90+ score on Google PageSpeed, so fewer people leave, more people find you, and more of them get in touch.

The Return

For most businesses, one new client covers the cost of the site. Every client after that is return, for as long as the site stays live.

Enterprise Case Study

GDV Holdings

A Philippine-born investment company with operations in six countries needed a site that investors would take seriously. BraneBox built 14 custom pages, covering governance, leadership, and investor relations. Desktop PageSpeed: a perfect 100 across the board.

Don't take my word for it. The PageSpeed scores are public, and anyone can run them at any time.

* PageSpeed scores may fluctuate slightly between analyses.

I only build websites that rank and convert. If you need a mobile app or a custom CRM, I'm not the right fit, and I'll tell you that upfront.

How It Works

How a Project Works, Step by Step

01

Tell me about your business

You fill in a short questionnaire about your services, customers, and goals. You know your business best, so this becomes the blueprint for everything that follows.

02

Keyword and competitor research

I find the searches your buyers actually type and study who's ranking for them. You see the full picture before a single page gets built.

03

Copy that sells, structured for search

I turn your notes into clear, persuasive copy. It reads naturally to people and is organized so Google understands exactly what you do.

04

Review a live site, not a mockup

No static design files to imagine from. You get a private link to the real, working site and click through it the way your visitors will.

05

Custom images, never stock

Every image is made for your brand. No stock photos you've seen on ten other sites. Original visuals keep people engaged, and Google rewards unique content.

06

Ready for Google and social media

Schema markup, share previews, and mobile tuning go into every page. Your listing looks better on Google, and your links look sharp when people share them.

07

Speed check, sign-off, and handover

I confirm the 90+ PageSpeed score and test on real phones. You review the finished site, and the final payment happens only after you sign off.

The Person Building Your Website

When you hire an agency, the person on the sales call is rarely the one who builds your site. Here, it's the same person. Me. I handle every project from the first conversation to the final handover.

I've done SEO since 2007. My own site reached the top three on Google and stayed on page one for more than 15 years, through every major algorithm change. I've also worked with AXA Singapore and Hexagon Metrology Japan. I take on a few projects at a time, so yours gets my full attention.

Performance, Verified

What does ‘best web design in the Philippines’ actually mean?

Directory rankings and award badges mostly show who spends the most on marketing. They don't tell you whose websites perform. The honest test is what happens after launch. How fast is the site? Does it rank? Does it bring in clients?

That's why I publish my scores. This site gets a perfect 100 on desktop and 94 on mobile, and you can test it yourself right now.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

You get senior-level work without paying for a big agency's overhead. Your budget goes into the site itself: a Next.js and Vercel build, a 90+ PageSpeed guarantee, schema markup, and SEO built in. And Kenzo Kobayashi handles every project personally.

Prices are fixed and published. Starter is $590 for 1 to 3 pages. Essential is $1,190 for up to 5 pages. Signature is $2,390 for up to 10 pages. Prestige starts at $3,890 for up to 15 pages. You can pay once or pay monthly, from $39 a month with a $99 deposit. Prestige is pay once only. Every plan includes built-in SEO and a 90+ PageSpeed guarantee.

Anywhere from about $300 with an entry-level freelancer to $30,000 or more with a traditional agency. BraneBox sits at $590 to $3,890+. You get senior work straight from the founder, without the agency markup.

Yes, always. On the content side, that means clear messaging, the right keywords, and markup that helps you earn rich results on Google. On the technical side, it means a guaranteed 90+ PageSpeed score and pages that load fast on phones. It's part of the build from day one.

Starter takes about 1 week. Essential takes 2 to 3 weeks. Signature takes 3 to 4. Prestige takes 4 to 6. The clock starts once your content is in, and there's no drawn-out discovery phase.

Yes. The price is fixed in USD. If you pay once, you pay 50% to start and the other 50% only after you approve the finished site. If you pay monthly, you put down a small deposit and pay over time. Either way, once it's paid, you own everything: the code, the domain, and every asset.

Results matter more than location. BraneBox has worked with clients in the US, Singapore, Japan, and the Philippines, and you can check the proof yourself: live PageSpeed scores and five-star Google reviews.

Yes, but rough is fine. Send notes or bullet points about your business. I'll shape them into clear copy that reads well and ranks on Google.

If you pay once, every plan includes 1 to 6 months of care, depending on the plan, plus 30 days of free bug fixes. Care covers hosting, security updates, and up to 30 minutes a month of text and image edits. After that, the care plan is optional and runs from $17 to $79 a month. If you ever cancel it, I move the code, hosting, domain, and email to your own accounts.

Book a 30-minute call. We pick a plan and how you want to pay, and you put down the deposit. You'll get a short onboarding questionnaire, and I start as soon as I've reviewed your answers.
