Your website. Without the WordPress worries.
Affordable. Fast. Simple.
We take over your existing website from WordPress, Joomla, TYPO3 & co. and rebuild it with modern technology: fast, secure and accessible. Before you order anything, you get to look at your new site for free.
Your CMS makes more work than it should
Systems like WordPress rebuild every page on every visit, with a database, PHP and often dozens of plugins. For a business site with a handful of pages, that's like assembling a car every time you drive to the bakery.
- Constant updates for the system, theme and plugins, and the worry after each one that something broke
- Security holes: outdated plugins are the most common way in for attackers
- Slow loading times that cost you visitors and Google ranking
- Expensive hosting, maintenance contracts and agency hours for small changes
- A back end nobody wants to use anymore
What makes a static website better
A static website consists of finished pages. Nothing is computed on each visit; the pages are simply delivered. That sounds unspectacular, but it changes a lot:
Lightning fast
Your pages come ready-made from a European content delivery network, in milliseconds instead of seconds. Good for visitors and for Google.
Simple
No updates, no plugin conflicts, no broken pages after the next upgrade. Your website stays the way it is.
Secure, data in Europe
No database, no login, no plugins: where nothing runs, nobody can break in. Hosted with an EU provider, without tracking baggage, GDPR-friendly.
Modern technology
Built with current web standards and a modern static site generator, optimised for phone, tablet and desktop. And plain HTML will still work in ten years.
Accessible
Clear structure, good contrast, usable with keyboard and screen reader. The EU requires accessibility for more and more websites, and every visitor benefits.

If you like it, we carry over all content and images. Old links keep working, and your site goes live with no downtime.
Changes by file
Send us new text as a Word or text file. We take care of the rest.
Change content without a back end
There's no system to learn and nothing to log in to. Write your changes where you already write, and upload the file in our client portal.
- Upload a Word document or text file, done
- We make the change and put it online
- No password to forget, no plugin to fail
- Bigger changes we discuss in person
We take over what others won't touch
Our speciality is websites on old, overloaded systems: grown over years, full of plugins, and the original agency long gone. We get the content out, however tangled it is.
Frequently asked questions
What does the test site cost?
Nothing. It's free and with no obligation. Only if you want to switch do you get a fixed-price offer.
Will my email address stay the same?
Yes. We only change where your website lives; your mailboxes stay untouched. If your email is currently with your old web host, we help you move it before you cancel there.
What happens to my contact form?
Forms keep working, through a secure form service instead of your CMS.
Will I lose my Google ranking?
No. All existing addresses stay reachable or are redirected properly. The faster load times tend to help your ranking.
Can I still change content myself?
Yes, without a back end: send us the new version as a Word or text file through the client portal, and we put it online.
Will my new website be accessible?
Yes. We build to the accessibility guidelines for websites (WCAG): clean headings, sufficient contrast, alt text for images and full keyboard use.
Which websites is this for?
Most business, practice, club and project sites. For online shops or sites with member areas, we'll tell you honestly whether switching makes sense.
