Custom business websites — SMBs — Trades — Professional services
Custom business websites.
I build custom business websites: fast, built to rank on Google, and easy to evolve. For SMBs, trades and professional services.
A business website for who?
Whatever your industry, a professional business website is your best online salesperson. It is often the first, and sometimes the only, touchpoint a prospect has with you before deciding whether to call you or click on the next name in Google results.
The difference between a website that generates leads and one that sits dormant is not the budget alone. It comes down to three things: loading speed, clarity of the offer, and the technical foundation that helps Google understand and surface your site. A website built from a Wix template or a $60 WordPress theme may look decent, but it is rarely fast, rarely well indexed, and rarely a true reflection of your business.
I build custom business websites without templates and without unnecessary plugins, using technologies that now deliver the strongest Google performance scores. For SMBs that need an image aligned with the quality of their services, for trades that need to be found locally, and for professional practices that need to inspire trust before the first appointment.
Local businesses & trades
Restaurants, hair salons, plumbers, electricians... Showcase your skills and attract local customers.
SMBs & companies
Present your services, team and references. A professional website that builds trust with your prospects.
Professionals & consultants
Lawyers, architects, consultants, coaches... Highlight your expertise with a website that matches your brand.
What makes a great business website
An effective business website is more than a pretty page. It needs to convert your visitors into clients.
Instant loading
Your visitors don't wait. A site that loads in under a second means less bounce and more leads.
Visible on Google
SEO optimized from the ground up. Your website appears in search results when potential clients look for your services.
Perfect on mobile
Over 60% of visits come from mobile. Your site adapts perfectly to all screen sizes.
Custom design
No generic template. A unique design that reflects your identity and sets you apart from the competition.
Examples of creative directions
Two business website concepts showing different ways to clarify an offer, structure content, and guide contact.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a custom business website cost?
The budget depends on the project complexity: number of pages, specific features, CMS integration. A professional business website typically starts from 1,200 euros. I provide a detailed and transparent quote after a free initial call to understand your needs.
What is the return on investment of a business website?
A well-ranked website brings you prospects around the clock, 24/7. Unlike advertising that stops when you stop paying, your website works for you long-term. My clients typically see a significant increase in contact requests within 3 months of launch.
Can I edit the content of my website myself?
Yes, I integrate a content management system (CMS) that allows you to edit your texts, images and content through a simple and intuitive interface, with no technical knowledge required. I train you on how to use it at delivery.
What's the difference with a WordPress site?
The sites I build are faster (near-instant loading), more secure (no WordPress vulnerabilities), better ranked on Google, and require no technical maintenance on your end. No plugins to update, no themes to maintain.
How long does it take to build a business website?
Expect 2 to 4 weeks depending on complexity. This includes the design phase, development, SEO optimization, testing and launch. You validate each step before moving to the next.
