Web Design & Development
A web development company in Budapest. We design and build custom websites, WordPress and Shopify stores, and web apps that are fast and yours to own.
What a website does for you
Your website talks to every prospect you'll ever have. Most of them decide within seconds whether you look like a serious company. They judge on speed, clarity and whether the site works on the phone in their hand.
As a web development company, we've built around 350 designs since 2021 for clients in more than a dozen countries: company websites, WooCommerce and Shopify stores, booking platforms and web apps. Five of those client sites are still running unchanged years later.
If you're comparing Shopify agencies in Germany, our roundups for Berlin and Hamburg list the studios worth a look, us included.
How we work
Scope first. We talk about what the site has to do and who it's for. Then you get a written scope with a fixed price and a timeline, in plain sentences.
Design in the browser. You review real pages at real sizes, on your phone if you like. Two rounds of revisions are included, and they're usually enough because you're looking at the real site.
Build and handover. We load the content, map the redirects, test every form and connect your analytics. Then we walk your team through it, hand over the documentation and stay on hand.
Our prices
Most of our projects come in under ten thousand euros. Our rate is €25 to €45 an hour with a €1,000 minimum. We can charge that because our engineering team is in India, while the people you talk to are in Budapest.
The figure in the proposal is the figure on the invoice. If the scope changes, we quote the change before we build it. If you need a web app, the MVP cost calculator turns a feature list into a cost and timeline range.
What things typically cost
These are typical ranges from similar projects. Your price comes from a conversation about scope.
| Build | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Landing page | €500 to €2,000 |
| Marketing site, 5 to 15 pages | €3,000 to €7,000 |
| Corporate or multi-language site | €7,000 to €14,000 |
| E-commerce | €1,000 to €16,000 |
| Ongoing retainer, after launch | €300 to €1,000 a month |
The retainer covers the work that carries on once a site is live: content changes, software and security updates, and small features. It's optional, you don't need it to own your site, and you can stop it whenever you like. For WordPress and WooCommerce sites, including ones we didn't build, WordPress support and maintenance explains what a month covers.
When we're the wrong choice
If you need a site next week, we're probably not the right team. If you want the cheapest option, a freelancer setting up a template will beat us on price, and we'll tell you so. And if what you really need is a marketing strategy, we'd like to have that conversation before we build any pages.
If you're in Hungary
Our team has been in Budapest since 2021. That means Central European Time, so a question at 10am gets an answer before lunch. Briefs and calls are in English or Hungarian, and you can meet us in person. The Hungary version of this page is web design and development in Budapest, with timelines and the five stages of a project.
How it works
- Designed for your content
- We design in the browser, so what you approve is what goes live. The layout is built around your real content, so the pages you care about get the space. If a template fits your budget and needs, we'll say so and set it up properly, and you won't pay for custom work you don't need.
- WordPress, Shopify or custom-built
- Which one suits you depends on who edits the site and how often. WordPress if your team publishes often and wants a familiar editor. Shopify if you sell products and want payments, tax and shipping already handled. Next.js if your site works more like an app than a brochure. We build all three, and we have no reason to push the expensive one.
- Fast from the start
- We plan page weight while we design. We resize and convert images, trim fonts, and load scripts only when they're needed. Speed matters for sales as well as search: Core Web Vitals affect rankings, and a slow site loses buyers even sooner.
- Ready for Google on launch day
- Clean headings, proper meta titles and descriptions, structured data, an XML sitemap, and URLs you won't need to change later. If we're replacing your old site, every old URL with traffic gets a redirect, mapped before launch. Skipping that step is how many site moves lose their rankings.
- Easy to edit, free to leave
- You get an editor for the things you'll want to change, and documentation written for your team. The code and accounts are yours on final payment. We want you to stay because the work is good.
