Custom Web Development for Small Business & Local Shops
Custom web development for small business means a clear website that loads fast, is easy to update, and helps visitors get in touch. At IvyyDev every project starts with a free concept prototype before full build-out.
Get a professional website that turns visitors into inquiries, loads fast, and is easy to maintain. You work 1:1 with me from scope to launch. Every project starts with a free concept prototype so you see the direction before you commit.
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.
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.
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

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 modern websites with proven tools under the hood (including React and TypeScript). You buy a website, not a tech list. The stack is chosen so the site stays fast, maintainable, and easy to hand over.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance and support?
Yes. After launch I can handle security 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 Basic, With contact, and With editable content?
Basic (from SEK 6,500) is a professional website with 3–5 pages, fixed content, and basic SEO. With contact (from SEK 9,000) adds a contact form and often Google Maps. With editable content (from SEK 12,000) gives you an admin where you can update news yourself. Need login, booking, or other business tools? See web apps & digital tools from SEK 15,000.
Does the price include hosting, domain, and SSL?
No. You pay ongoing costs such as hosting, domain name, SSL, and similar services with your provider. I can recommend hosting and domain providers and help you set them up, but you pay those fees.
