WordPress development in Budapest and across Hungary. Custom themes, WooCommerce stores, fast and secure builds — without 30 plugins dragging the site down. WordPress isn't slow by default. The wrong setup makes it slow.

From template-and-plugin pile to a fast, maintainable site

Most corporate WordPress sites wheeze under 30 plugins, load slowly, and break on every monthly update. We build a minimal stack with only what the site actually needs.

Amit kínálunk

What a professional WordPress developer delivers

WordPress is only as good as the hands shaping it. No stock setups. Every detail tailored to your site.

Custom WordPress theme

Not a template — a custom theme built around your brand, with React-based Gutenberg blocks or classic PHP templates. An admin interface that's editable exactly where it needs to be. We ship clean code instead of bloated builders like Elementor or Divi.

WooCommerce store

Hungarian payment gateways (Barion, SimplePay, OTP), automated e-invoicing via Billingo or Számlázz.hu, Foxpost / GLS / MPL shipping. Inventory management, B2B pricing, coupon system. Everything a store built for the Hungarian market needs.

Blazing fast, Core Web Vitals green

Cloudflare CDN, image optimization (WebP / AVIF), lazy loading, critical CSS, unused CSS purge. Most WordPress plugins are speed killers — we don't use the unnecessary ones. Sites we build typically score 90+ on PageSpeed mobile.

Migration from an existing site

Moving from Wix, Webnode, Joomla, or an outdated WordPress install — with SEO preserved and a 301 redirect map so you don't lose traffic. We carry over the full content, images, and metadata, then stabilize your Google rankings after the cutover.

Mire használják

When WordPress is the right call

WordPress isn't a fit for everything. Where it fits, it's the best choice. Here's where we use it.

01 · Brand
Corporate brochure site

Company, services, and team pages. The marketing team manages content on its own; the developer is only needed when a new block or feature is required.

01
02 · Content
Blog + content site

Magazines, content marketing sites, news portals. WordPress was built for this — and still wins on this turf.

02
03 · Commerce
WooCommerce store

From 100 to 10,000 SKUs, built for the Hungarian market. Easy management, Hungarian payments, integrated invoicing.

03
04 · Headless
Headless WordPress

WordPress as the admin, Next.js as the front end. Maximum speed, modern dev experience, reliable content management.

04
Folyamat

WordPress projects, run in sprints

Four to six weeks for a custom theme. Six to ten for a WooCommerce store. Here's how it goes.

01

01

Discovery

Content structure, page wireframes, target keywords. What the admin side needs, what the visitor side needs.

02

02

Design + block system

Figma design, then a spec for the Gutenberg blocks. Every content element becomes a reusable block.

03

03

Theme development

Custom theme build, block coding, plugin selection. Only what's truly needed makes it into the stack.

04

04

Migration or content load

Porting existing content, building the 301 redirect map, optimizing images. For greenfield projects, building the content structure from scratch.

05

05

Launch and maintenance

Cloudflare CDN, security baseline, monitoring. Monthly maintenance with updates tested on staging first.
