Custom Web Development for Small Business & Local Shops
Get a website or web app that turns visitors into inquiries, loads fast, and is easy to maintain. You work 1:1 with me from scope to launch. Every web project includes a free prototype or demo so you can try before you commit.
Best for service businesses, local companies, solo operators, and home-based businesses that want a clear start and no surprise scope.
Start with a free prototype
A no-risk development process: validate direction early, then scale the build when it feels right.
- No upfront commitment to a full build
- See your product before you invest
- Risk-free start
Free prototype or demo
After we align on goals and scope, I ship something you can click through: layout, flow, and core UX so the direction is tangible.
Feedback and iteration
You review, we tighten. Short cycles, clear notes, no endless back-and-forth.
Continue only if you are satisfied
If it is a fit, we move into the paid build with a scope you already understand. If not, you walk away without pressure.

Common Frustrations for Small Businesses
Hard to Know What You Will Get
Quotes arrive as PDFs full of jargon, and it is unclear who actually builds the site or how many people are in the chain.
Projects Drag On
Long approval loops and handoffs mean a simple business site takes months while competitors are already online.
Messages Get Lost
You explain the same detail to several people, and small changes wait in a queue instead of being decided quickly.
Scope Creeps Up
Extra pages, plugins, and revisions appear on the invoice because the original scope was never concrete.
The Solution: Direct Collaboration
Work directly with the developer who builds your project. Clear scope, a free prototype first, and friendly expert help without corporate layers.

Work directly with me. You get straight answers and quick decisions because the person on the call is the person writing the code.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about my web development services.
How long does it take to develop a custom website?
The timeline depends on the project complexity. A simple business website typically takes 2-4 weeks, while a complex web application can take 2-6 months. I provide detailed project timelines during the initial consultation.
What technologies do you use for web development?
I use modern technologies including React, TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS. The stack is chosen based on your specific needs, ensuring optimal performance and maintainability.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance and support?
Yes, I offer comprehensive maintenance packages including security updates, performance monitoring, content updates, and technical support. I believe in long-term partnerships with my clients.
Can you help with existing websites?
Absolutely! I can modernize, optimize, or add new features to existing websites. I also provide code reviews, performance audits, and migration services to newer technologies.
What's included in your web development process?
My process includes discovery and planning, design and prototyping, development and testing, deployment, and ongoing support. I maintain clear communication throughout each phase.
Do you build mobile-responsive websites?
Yes, all websites I build are mobile-first and fully responsive. I ensure your website looks and functions perfectly on all devices, from smartphones to desktop computers.
Do you serve businesses globally, including Sweden?
Yes. I work remotely with clients worldwide and also work with businesses across Sweden. If you prefer a call, async collaboration, or an on-site meeting, I can usually accommodate it during the scoping phase.
What does the free prototype or demo phase include?
After a short intro call and a clear scope, I build an initial prototype or demo so you can see direction, layout, and core UX before you commit to paid build-out. You give feedback, we iterate once or twice, and you only move forward when it makes sense for you. Scope stays realistic so the phase stays focused and useful.
What if I do not want to continue after the prototype?
That is fine. The point of the prototype phase is to validate the idea and the collaboration without locking you in. If it is not a match, we stop there with no pressure to proceed.
