Web design
built by people who run a shop
HCF VISUAL LAB is a web design and brand growth studio based in Hsinchu, Taiwan. We also run a combat gym in the same building — we turned our own site into a machine that books trials, then productised the method. Hand-coded, never templated. Pricing is public. Standard launch in 30 working days.
Figures come from our own storefront site and this site, measured with Google Lighthouse. They are not an industry average and not a guarantee — results depend on your sector, budget and existing traffic.
What we do
Custom websites and landing pages
Three to fifteen pages, hand-written responsive layouts, basic SEO structure and Search Console setup included. Single-page landing pages for campaigns or one main service. No page builders, no plugin sprawl.
Brand identity
Logo, colour and type systems, usage rules and applied collateral. Delivered as vector originals with a written specification, so your signage, name cards and social profiles finally match.
Booking, registration and payment systems
Class booking, course registration, member tiers, payment logging and due-date reminders. We build these for our own gym and for a tuition school in Zhubei, so the admin side is designed for front-desk staff, not engineers.
SEO and content
Technical health, structured data, topic-cluster content planning and monthly reporting. This site ranks for its own keywords — you can check that before hiring us.
How we work
1. Diagnosis
We look at where your customers come from today and where they drop off. You get a written diagnosis covering visual impression, SEO health and conversion friction. Free, no obligation.
2. Fixed, itemised quote
Design, build, domain, hosting, SSL, stock assets and post-launch maintenance are listed as separate lines. You can remove any line, and you can compare our quote against another studio line by line.
3. Build with a visible progress board
Weekly updates, staged deliverables you can sign off, and no disappearing acts. Every stage has something you can open.
4. Launch and 30-day warranty
Analytics and Search Console are configured before launch, so from day one you can see what the site is doing. Thirty days of technical warranty, plus an optional annual maintenance plan.

Where we work
We are based at 2F, No. 301, Linsen Road, North District, Hsinchu City, inside the same building as our gym. We meet clients in person across Hsinchu City, Hsinchu County, Zhubei, Hukou and the Science Park area, and work remotely with clients elsewhere in Taiwan and overseas by video call.
Office hours are 11:00–22:00 on weekdays and 11:00–16:00 at weekends, Taiwan time (UTC+8). The studio is appointment-only — please message before visiting.
Get in touch
Email hsinchucombat2022@gmail.com for contracts and formal enquiries, or message us on LINE for a quick answer — usually within 24 hours. Tell us what your customers should do on the site, roughly what budget range you have in mind, and when you would like to launch. That is enough for us to come back with a first opinion.
Frequently asked questions
Do you work with English-speaking clients
Yes. Project communication can be handled in English by email or LINE, and we can run video calls. Deliverables, documentation and the admin panel can be produced in English, Traditional Chinese, or both.
How much does a website cost
Entry sites start at NT$38,000 (roughly US$1,200), conversion-focused sites at NT$78,000, and full brand sites at NT$138,000. E-commerce and system integration are quoted per feature list. Every quote itemises design, build, domain, hosting and SSL separately, so there are no surprises after launch.
How long does it take
Two to three weeks for an entry site, about 30 working days for a conversion-focused site, and four to eight weeks for larger brand or e-commerce builds. You get a progress board and a weekly update.
Do you build on WordPress or templates
No. We hand-code, because template block order is decided by the template author, not by how your customers decide. Hand-coded means we control speed, SEO structure and the user journey.
Who owns the site after launch
You do. The domain is registered in your name, and you receive the source code, design files, hosting credentials and admin documentation. You are never locked in.
Can you handle hosting and maintenance
Yes, as an optional annual plan that covers daily backups, uptime monitoring, SSL renewal and content updates. You can also host it yourself — we will hand over everything you need.
