Custom Web Development for Small Business & Local Shops
A professional custom website for your business, either as a one-time purchase or as a monthly subscription where IvyyDev handles more of the ongoing work. Every project starts with a free concept prototype.
See the direction first, then choose buy-once or website subscription. You work 1:1 with me from scope to launch.
Custom-built with React and Vite. Based in Sölvesborg, Sweden; remote delivery for clients across Sweden and abroad. 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 concept prototype
See how the solution can look before you decide. The prototype clarifies design, structure, and scope before development starts. It is not a complete free website.
- No upfront commitment to a full build
- See your product before you invest
- Risk-free start
Free concept prototype
After we align on goals and scope, I ship something you can click through: layout, flow, and feel 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.
After Launch You Are Alone
Once the site is live, there is often nobody left to call. Hosting, SSL, small fixes, and updates become your problem until something breaks.
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.
Direct Communication
Work directly with me. You get straight answers and quick decisions because the person on the call is the person writing the code.
Clear Scope
Transparent scope and timeline from day one. No hidden costs or surprise invoices.
Clear timelines
Basic websites in 2–3 weeks after approved scope. With contact often 3–4 weeks. Website with editable content depends on what you need to publish.
My Development Process
A straightforward process designed to get your project live quickly
Discovery
I discuss your goals, target audience, and requirements with you and then provide a clear scope and timeline estimate.
Timeline: 1-2 days
Development
I build your website with regular updates and short feedback loops. You see progress as it happens.
Timeline: 2–4 weeks for sites; longer for complex apps
Launch
Final testing, go-live, and handover. With buy-once you own the code from day one. With a subscription you own the code after 24 paid months. Documentation is included.
Timeline: 1-2 days
What I Build
From landing pages and service sites to websites with editable content, built for how your business actually works.
Business websites
Clear presentation of your company, services, and contact so visitors know what you offer.
Responsive websites
Sites that work well on phone, tablet, and desktop without fuss.
Service sites that convert
Pages for trades, consultants, and local firms that want more inquiries.
Website with editable content
When you want to update news or other recurring content yourself, without needing a full web app.
Choose the model that fits you
Same custom build and free concept prototype. Subscribe if you want a lower upfront cost. Webbops if you already own the site.
Amounts are starting prices. You get a clear quote based on final scope before development starts.
Buy the website
Own it from day one
For businesses that want to own the website from the start and pay as a one-time purchase. Recommended package: With contact.
- Do you own the code? Yes – from day one
- Packages from Basic to editable content
- Ownership from day one and lower long-term cost than website subscription (Care)
- Optional Webbops from SEK 595/mo after launch
- Free concept prototype before full build
- Choose if: you can pay upfront and want to own immediately
Website subscription
Lower upfront cost, IvyyDev runs the tech
Website subscription (Care/Growth): lower upfront cost while IvyyDev handles hosting, maintenance, and ongoing care. Care is Basic-level (no form).
- You own the code after 24 paid months.
- After 24 paid months you own the code. IvyyDev then normally contacts you to move to Webbops (cheaper ops on the site you own), or you can run ops yourself. During the initial 24-month term the agreement is binding; early exit must be negotiated.
- Hosting and technical operations included
- Care and Growth plans
- Lower startup fee than a full buy-out
- Free concept prototype before you choose a plan
- Choose if: you want to avoid a large lump sum
I already own it
Webbops – you own, I operate
For you who already own an IvyyDev-built site and want hosting, backups, and maintenance handled.
- Do you own the code? Yes – you already own the site
- Hosting, SSL, backups, maintenance and updates
- Up to 30 min minor content changes/month
- No 24-month lock-in
- Choose if: the site was built by IvyyDev and you own it
What makes the packages different?
Buy packages differ in what the site can do. Subscriptions differ in how you pay and who runs ops. Care is Basic-level (about 3–5 pages, no form or integrations), not Contact or CMS. You can upgrade from Care to Growth anytime; downgrade is not offered.
| Basic | Contact | CMS | Care | Growth | Contact+Webbops | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Own code from day one | Yes | Yes | Yes | No | No | Yes |
| Ops included | No | No | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Contact form | No | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | Yes |
| Own admin (CMS) | No | No | Yes | No | No | No |
| Integrations / new features | Quote or SEK 900/h | Quote or SEK 900/h | Quote or SEK 900/h | No (→ Growth) | Within 1 h/mo or SEK 900/h | Quote or SEK 900/h |
| Content help | No | No | You publish yourself | 0 min (quoted) | Up to 1 h/mo | Up to 30 min/mo |
| Start / typical cost | SEK 8,500 once | SEK 11,500 once | SEK 15,000 once | SEK 1,495 + SEK 1,295/mo | SEK 2,495 + SEK 1,695/mo | SEK 11,500 + SEK 595/mo |
| Code ownership | From day one | From day one | From day one | You own after 24 paid months | You own after 24 paid months | From day one |
| Contract | One-time | One-time | One-time | 24 months | 24 months | 1-month notice |
Need something more advanced?
A website mainly shows information to your visitors. If you need customer login, booking systems, internal tools, databases, or other business logic, a web app may be a better fit.
Web apps & digital tools start from SEK 18,000. The price depends on features and scope. You get a clear quote before development starts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about my web development services.
How long does it take to develop a website?
A basic website usually takes 2–3 weeks after approved scope. With a contact form it often takes 3–4 weeks. A website with editable content depends on how much you need to publish yourself. You get a written timeline once scope is clear.
What technologies do you use for web development?
I build custom websites with modern React, Vite, and TypeScript tailored to your business. You get a fast, maintainable site that is easy to hand over, not a generic template.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance and support?
Yes. After launch I can handle maintenance and updates, content changes, performance checks, and technical support on a schedule that fits how often the site changes.
Can you help with existing websites?
Yes. I can modernize, speed up, or add features to an existing site. I also do code reviews, performance audits, and migrations to newer stacks when it is worth the move.
What's included in your web development process?
Discovery and planning, concept prototype, development and testing, launch, and optional support afterward. You get clear updates in each phase.
Do you build mobile-responsive websites?
Yes. Every site is built mobile-first so it works on phones, tablets, and desktops without a separate mobile version.
Do you work with clients outside Sweden?
Yes. Websites are delivered remotely for clients in Sweden and abroad, with clear milestones and async updates. On-site IT focuses on Blekinge, Skåne, and Småland around Sölvesborg, with visits elsewhere in Sweden when needed.
What does the free concept prototype include?
After a short intro call, I build a concept prototype or demo so you can see direction, layout, and feel before you commit to paid build-out. It is not a complete free website. You give feedback, we iterate in short rounds, and you only move forward when it makes sense.
What if I do not want to continue after the prototype?
That is fine. The prototype phase exists 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.
Are the prices on this page fixed?
No. The amounts are starting prices. You get a clear quote based on the final scope before development starts.
What is the difference between buying a website and a subscription?
Buy once (from SEK 8,500) means you pay for the project and own the site from day one; you usually handle hosting yourself. If you want IvyyDev to handle hosting and ongoing website care after a buy, Webbops is available (from SEK 595/month). That is ops on a site you already own, not Website Care. Website subscription (from SEK 1,295/month) includes hosting, maintenance, and support in the monthly fee. Care is Basic-level (about 3–5 pages, no form or integrations). Both start with a free concept prototype. Need login, booking, or other business tools? See web apps & digital tools from SEK 18,000.
Does the buy-once price include hosting, domain, and SSL?
No. On the buy-once model you pay ongoing costs such as hosting, domain, and SSL with your provider. I can recommend providers and help with setup. Or choose Webbops (from SEK 595/month) if you own an IvyyDev-built site and want me to handle hosting and ongoing website care. Webbops is not Website Care. Website subscription (Care/Growth) includes hosting and technical operations in the monthly fee.
