Website and ecommerce development for scalable growth, with 15 years of experience.

We do not sell hourly rates; we deliver completed work.
The website development cost always depends on the actual scope of the project: the number of features, templates, integrations, content volume, and expected traffic volume.

Structure of the quote:

• itemised breakdown: you see exactly how much each feature costs,
• fixed budget for the agreed scope, no open-ended billing,
• phased payments: initial deposit, milestones, handover,
• future extensions are treated as separate, pre-agreed items.

What makes a project cheaper or more expensive?
A brochure website involves significantly less work than an ecommerce webshop with inventory management, shipping, and payment integrations. The largest cost factor is not the design, but the back-end logic: data synchronization, user permissions, automated workflows, and server capacity.

If you have an existing system, it is often cheaper to fix and develop it further than to rewrite it from scratch. We tell you this honestly during our first consultation, even if a larger project would be more profitable for us.

We only quote specific figures once we fully understand your requirements. Request a quote, the consultation and initial assessment are free of charge.

We do not believe in extremes.
Anyone who uses no artificial intelligence today falls behind. However, those who rely solely on AI take unnecessary risks. Ultimately, it is the client who pays for that risk.

We combine over 15 years of real web development experience with the speed of AI.
At our web development company, AI is a tool, not a decision-maker: it accelerates routine work while every technical decision remains in human hands.

As a result:

• we deliver complex custom website development projects efficiently,
• development is faster without sacrificing quality,
• the value for money is better than with traditional agency models.

We do not build template websites; we build high-performing digital systems.
Performance, security, search engine optimisation (SEO), and scalability are built in from day one, not treated as afterthoughts that cost extra.

One team, from server hosting to digital advertising.
You do not need to deal with separate hosting providers, developers, SEO specialists, and ad managers who point fingers at each other. From server hosting and operations through website development to search engine optimisation and ad management, responsibility stays under one roof.

Our workflows are transparent: you know exactly why things happen and where the project stands. No vague promises or missed deadlines—just clear steps and measurable results. To see how this works in practice, check out our portfolio.

We work with three main client types, and they all share one common goal: they need a reliable, high-performing system rather than just a showcase page.

Startups: when you need to validate an idea quickly, launch an MVP, or lay down a scalable technical foundation. Here, speed, automation, and avoiding wasted budget are what matter.

Product companies, webshops: the focus is on stable operations, performance, integrations, and growth. We do not just build ecommerce webshops, but construct systems that handle high traffic, marketing campaigns, and seasonal peaks.

Enterprises: typically we integrate with existing architecture: refactoring legacy code, optimizing, automating, or adding custom features without disruption. Security, documentation, and predictability are paramount here. Learn more on our corporate business website development page.

Our technology stack
Our web development services are backed by deep systems engineering and DevOps expertise, far beyond front-end design:

• Custom PHP-based systems, CMSs, and ecommerce webshops
• Magento 2 development, WordPress and WooCommerce development, migration, and backups
• Database design, performance, and cache optimisation
• SEO and PageSpeed focus built-in during development
• Server-side performance, security, scaling, Linux/Ubuntu VPS
• APIs, automation, background processes, invoicing and courier integrations

We do not just ensure it looks good; we make sure it is fast, stable, and sustainable long-term.

IoT and automation: when web development goes beyond the browser
Alongside classic web design and development services, we have hands-on experience with industrial and building automation systems:

• Loxone: building automation, control logic
• WAGO: industrial automation, PLC-level solutions
• Raspberry Pi: sensors, data acquisition, custom controllers
• Robotic lawnmower systems: installation, logic, integration, operation

This matters because more and more projects do not stop at the website: they connect to physical hardware, sensors, and automated workflows. We treat these as core components rather than external domains.

We treat development not as simple "website building", but as engineering digital systems. Our goal is not just to launch something, but to build a solution that works, measures results, and remains sustainable over time.

1. Discovery and goal setting
Before designing, we examine your business objectives, expected traffic loads, and growth trajectory. This determines what is essential today and what can follow later.

2. Selecting the technical stack
We select the right technology, structure, and architecture based on functionality, performance, and scalability—not trends.

3. Planning, not guessing
Before writing code, the project logic is crystal clear:

• what we are building,
• in what sequence,
• with what deadlines.

There are no "we'll figure it out later" decisions.

4. Controlled development
During coding, AI accelerates routine tasks while senior engineers retain full control over architectural decisions. This ensures rapid execution without compromising stability.

5. Testing and fine-tuning
We do not just check if it works; we verify:

• is it fast (Core Web Vitals, PageSpeed),
• can it handle high loads,
• is it secure,
• and does it achieve its business goals.

6. Handover and future-proofing
Handover is not an endpoint, but a solid foundation. The system is documented, clean, and extensible. We walk you through the admin area so you can manage your content independently.

7. Post-launch tracking and optimisation
After going live, we monitor performance, traffic load, and user interaction. Where needed, we refine: speeding up load times, simplifying flows, or automating tasks.
We do not abandon your system the moment it goes live.

In most cases, we talk in terms of days, not months.
If your goals are clear and the core details are ready, work can begin almost immediately.

Typical timelines based on experience:

• brochure website or landing page: a few days,
• multi-page business website: typically 1–3 weeks,
• ecommerce site with integrations: 3–6 weeks, depending on product count and connected systems,
• custom system, complex migration, or industrial integration: defined after initial assessment with phased milestones.

How quickly we start depends on three factors:

• how clear the business goal is,
• the complexity of the project,
• and what technical decisions are required upfront.

For startups or smaller projects, development can often begin right after the first call. Larger systems require initial structural and technical alignment, but there are no unnecessary delays.

The most common delays are not technical: gathering content, text copy, and imagery is usually what takes time. That is why we provide a clear checklist upfront detailing everything required from you.

A fast start is not rushed.
We only start coding when objectives are clear, scope is defined, and every decision has a sound engineering rationale. In short: we start quickly without building on flawed foundations.

Less than you might think. You do not need a fully polished concept—our role is to help refine it with you.

To start, all we need is:

• what your business does and who your audience is,
• what you expect from the site: quote requests, online purchases, bookings, or brand awareness,
• your existing website and logins, if applicable,
• logo and branding assets (if you do not have these, our design team can create them),
• a few websites you like, and a few you dislike.

Handling copy and imagery
This is where projects most often stall. If you do not have written copy, you do not need to wait months: we write SEO-optimised content drafts for you to review and approve. For images, we can provide licensed stock media or arrange custom photography.

What we bring to the table:

• structural and content recommendations based on competitor analysis,
• keyword research to target high-intent search terms,
• technical strategy, domain registration, and hosting setup,
• legal essentials: terms and conditions, privacy policy, cookie consent.

After our initial consultation, you will receive a detailed checklist with clear deadlines, ensuring seamless project momentum.

There is no single right answer, only the platform that fits your specific requirements. We build on all three daily, so we have no bias toward forcing one over another.

WebPot CMS, our custom engine
The ideal choice if you need ultra-fast load times, low operating costs, and a lightweight admin panel. No plugin bloat, no mandatory weekly update hassles, and a significantly smaller attack surface than off-the-shelf software. We use it across four platforms: web, mobile apps, Windows desktop, and Ubuntu server.

WordPress / WooCommerce
Recommended when long-term third-party maintainability is key, extensive third-party plugin integrations are required, or content marketing is central. It demands regular maintenance and prudent plugin management, which we handle under our managed hosting and operations services.

Magento 2
For enterprise ecommerce website development, Magento 2 is one of the most robust engines available: supporting multi-store setups, multiple languages and currencies, massive product catalogues, B2B pricing, and ERP integrations. It is resource-intensive, so we recommend it where business scale justifies the investment. Learn more on our Magento 2 development and webshop development page.

How do we decide?

• product count, order volumes, and expected seasonal peaks,
• external systems to integrate (invoicing, couriers, ERP, marketing tools),
• who will manage the system daily,
• available hosting and maintenance budget.

We document our reasoning clearly—we do not ask for blind trust, we explain the engineering logic behind every choice.

Yes, website migration is one of our core services. The primary risk during migration is not moving the files, but losing hard-won Google SEO rankings or historical order data.

What we migrate:

• complete content, product catalogues, images, and category structures,
• customer profiles and order histories (where the legacy system permits),
• 301 redirects from old URLs to new structures, preserving your SEO positions,
• meta tags, structured data, XML sitemaps, and robots.txt,
• email accounts, DNS, and domain records.

How does the process work?
Your new system is built in an isolated staging environment while your existing website runs without interruption. The live cutover occurs only after thorough testing, typically off-peak. We create and archive a full backup of the old site, ensuring a complete fallback option.

Post-launch monitoring
During the initial weeks, we monitor organic search traffic, indexing status, and 404 errors in Google Search Console, fixing any discrepancies immediately. Many providers neglect this step, yet it determines whether a migration succeeds or hurts rankings.

For existing WordPress sites, a thorough performance optimisation and security overhaul is often better than a full migration. We provide honest advice upfront.

Yes. You do not need to search for separate hosting providers or navigate complex DNS settings.

Managed hosting on our own VPS infrastructure
We manage our own server infrastructure on Ubuntu VPS servers, meaning you get direct support without waiting in ticketing queues. Built-in features include:

• SSL certificate and HTTPS configuration,
• automated daily backups with one-click restoration,
• CDN-based image optimisation (WebP/AVIF) and edge caching,
• server-side security hardening and 24/7 monitoring,
• custom domain email mailboxes.

Domain name administration
If you do not own a domain, we perform SEO domain research and handle registration. If you already have one, we transfer management or adjust DNS records. The domain always remains registered in your name.

Using your existing hosting provider
That is no problem—we also deploy to third-party web hosting environments. We inform you beforehand if hosting constraints impact site speed or security standards.

Project handover is not the end of our partnership.
A website is not a static piece of furniture: web browsers update, compliance laws shift, Google algorithms evolve, and your business goals grow.

Warranty
Following handover, we resolve any development bugs free of charge. If something does not perform as specified, taking responsibility is standard procedure.

Ongoing hosting and maintenance
We offer managed monthly care packages covering:

• system updates, security patches, and backup verification,
• uptime, performance, and speed monitoring,
• content updates, new landing pages, and minor feature additions,
• monthly reporting detailing actions taken and recommended tweaks.

SLA response times
In the event of an outage or broken checkout flow, we act immediately with top priority. For standard maintenance requests, we acknowledge within 1 business day with a delivery timeline. Custom SLAs are available for mission-critical web applications.

What if you do not opt for managed services?
That is completely fine. Codebases are fully documented, allowing any skilled developer to take over. We do not lock you in with proprietary constraints.

Technical SEO is included as standard—it is not an add-on, but an essential engineering foundation.

Included across all our websites:

• clean, SEO-friendly URL structures and heading hierarchies,
• meta titles, descriptions, and Open Graph social tags,
• Schema.org structured data, XML sitemaps, and robots.txt,
• fast loading speeds: image compression, caching, and minified code,
• responsive, mobile-friendly design and accessibility,
• Google Search Console and analytics setup.

Separate ongoing SEO services:
Content strategy and ongoing search engine optimisation: keyword research, link building, monthly rank tracking, and adjustments. This requires continuous effort, so it is handled as a separate service.

Analytics tracking that actually measures
Ad tracking efficiency has declined due to cookie restrictions and ad blockers. That is why we implement server-side GA4 tracking, providing accurate conversion data that directly improves Google Ads and Facebook and Instagram ads performance.

AI search engines and GEO
An increasing proportion of traffic originates from AI assistant citations (ChatGPT, Gemini) rather than conventional Google SERPs. We build websites so large language models (LLMs) and search bots comprehend your value proposition clearly. What is a competitive advantage today will be mandatory tomorrow. To see how this works, read our AI visibility and GEO optimisation page, complete with metrics and pricing.

We treat data protection and confidentiality as core technical duties rather than compliance burdens. Business metrics, source code, and personal information remain strictly confidential at all times.

Across every web development project:

• data is processed strictly to the extent required for development,
• we never reuse client data in other client projects,
• we never share information with third parties,
• we do not use your proprietary data to train AI models.

Controlled access management:

• access is granted exclusively to team members directly working on your task,
• permissions are strictly scoped and time-bound per project,
• we work with anonymised database copies whenever possible instead of live production data.

Technical security safeguards:

• isolated staging and production hosting environments,
• automated backups and Git version control,
• enforcement of secure-by-default server configurations,
• robust security controls mitigating data loss and unauthorized access.

Built-in GDPR compliance
Every website or webshop includes cookie consent banners, privacy policy integration, and GDPR data management workflows out of the box.

We are happy to execute Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), though our commitment to discretion is fundamental. Your business ideas, code, and customer data belong solely to you.

You do. Period.
All custom source code, databases, and content assets generated during the project belong to you, not the agency.

The sole exception is SaaS/rented system models, where the underlying framework software remains our property. This is always established upfront before work begins.

In practice, this means:

• you retain full administrative and codebase access,
• there is zero vendor lock-in,
• domain names, server hosting, and web analytics belong to your company,
• your digital architecture is open and unencumbered.

Our engineering standards guarantee:

• any professional web developer can maintain or expand the project,
• code structure is documented and maintainable,
• no hidden software license fees, proprietary locks, or artificial limits.

What remains with us?
Our general development expertise, methodology, and tools. However, bespoke code written for your application is never resold to competitors.

Why this matters to you:

• you are never dependent on a single vendor,
• you are free to expand, modify, or migrate at will,
• your custom web system becomes a true core asset of your business.

Yes.
We operate as an established EU company in Hungary under transparent legal frameworks. We are a reliable web development agency, not a temporary freelance setup. This provides long-term security for mission-critical web applications.

In practical terms:

• VAT-compliant invoices are issued for all services,
• financial and corporate records are fully transparent,
• contract terms are unambiguous and enforceable,
• every engagement is backed by professional liability and clear deliverables.

Contracts and payment terms
All engagements are bound by a formal written contract defining scope, timelines, and payment schedules. Detailed terms are set out in our terms and conditions tartalmazza.

International EU invoicing
For EU business clients with a valid EU VAT number, we issue reverse-charge invoices (0% VAT), making international web development seamless.

Yes, with us this is standard engineering, not an expensive add-on.
More web traffic is driven by AI assistant recommendations than ever before. Generative AI engines only cite websites that present machine-readable structured data.

That is why every site we build includes:

• server-side rendering: AI crawlers receive pre-rendered HTML rather than empty JS shells,
• Schema.org structured data covering services, prices, and FAQs,
• Q&A content structure with exact facts and figures,
• AI crawler bot analytics, allowing you to track AI discovery.

Website upkeep consists of three main cost items:

• domain name: €15 to €40 a year,
• hosting or VPS: depends on traffic; for a brochure website, it is €5 to €25 a month,
• maintenance: tailored to your needs, from ad-hoc tasks to managed hosting and operations.

A brochure website can be securely maintained for €150 to €400 a year. For an ecommerce site, expect €50 to €150 a month due to VPS hosting and active maintenance, ensuring your webshop remains fast and secure.

What you should never cut corners on: automated backups, security updates, and uptime monitoring. Repairing a compromised or crashed site always costs far more than routine upkeep.

The European Accessibility Act (EAA) applies to ecommerce webshops and consumer services from 28 June 2025. The technical benchmark is WCAG 2.1 AA compliance.

Microenterprises with under 10 employees and under €2m annual turnover face less strict requirements, but accessible web design benefits all businesses: improved user experience, better SEO, and a wider audience reach.

We build all websites accessible by default: proper heading structures, contrast ratios, keyboard navigation, and alt text. For existing sites, we offer accessibility audits and remediation roadmaps.

Yes, this is a very common request. Page builders like Wix or Webnode offer a quick start, but limitations soon arise: recurring platform fees, restricted SEO controls, slow loading speeds, and lack of true codebase ownership.

What we preserve and migrate:

• all text copy and image assets,
• your domain name, with zero downtime during cutover,
• 301 redirects for key URLs to preserve your Google positions.

Proprietary drag-and-drop page builder lock-in cannot be transferred—which is precisely what you gain freedom from. Post-migration, your website loads faster, and both code and content become your exclusive property.

A website template works best when getting online quickly and cheaply is the top priority and you do not mind sharing a look with competitors. Custom web design pays off when brand differentiation and conversion optimization (quote requests, sales, bookings) are vital.

With our web development company, custom design does not mean long waiting times: our AI-accelerated workflow delivers custom web development in days or weeks, not months. The real impact is seen in faster load times, higher search engine rankings, and superior conversion rates.

It helps to distinguish between two types of updates.

Technical maintenance: an ongoing process where security patches and software components require timely attention. This is handled by our website maintenance plans.

Content updates: core pages and pricing should be reviewed at least once a year. Search engines and AI assistants favour recent, updated content, whereas prospective clients lose trust if they encounter outdated promotions.

A complete visual redesign is typically recommended every 3 to 5 years. If built on a solid foundation, this is a smooth refresh rather than rebuilding from scratch.

We are a web development company based in Budapest, but our entire website development process can be conducted online: consultations via video calls, design reviews on interactive tools, and handover with training. We work with clients across Hungary and internationally.

In-person meetings are available in Budapest and surrounding areas.

Yes, every website we build is fully responsive: adapting seamlessly across smartphones, tablets, and desktops. Mobile-first web design is a priority, as most visitors browse on mobile devices and Google indexes the mobile version first.

Before handover, we test extensively across multiple screen sizes and run PageSpeed benchmarks.

Yes. All our systems come with an intuitive content management interface allowing you to edit text, images, and new pages without coding knowledge. We provide comprehensive training at handover.

If you prefer not to manage content updates yourself, our team can handle them for you.

Yes, ecommerce website development is one of our primary specialisations: building on our proprietary WShop engine as well as WooCommerce and Magento 2, complete with payment, shipping, and invoicing integrations.

Learn more on our webshop development and ecommerce site creation oldalon.

Yes. A landing page is built for a single goal: driving quote requests, sign-ups, or direct purchases. We build landing pages with fast load times, clear messaging, and precise conversion tracking to ensure measurable ROI on your ad spend.

We can also manage your advertising campaigns: Google Ads management.
