Website development that’s not template-driven, but built specifically for your business.
Website development means the technical solution – from design to front-end and back-end code. We develop web solutions that are fast, secure, SEO-friendly and built to grow with your business.
In Estonia, many offer website development for 590-1490€ on a template basis. This is good for a quick start, but professional development is something else – custom code, optimised structure, technical SEO from the start. The result is a platform that works for years and grows with your business.
Web Systems has been in the web development business for over 20 years. We have developed hundreds of websites and e-stores for Estonian companies – Mobire, FC Flora, PZU Kindlustus, Sky.ee, R-Kiosk, Tartu University Hospital and many others.

What professional website development involves
Website development is not a single step, but a multi-step process. Each part has an impact on the end result – user experience, speed, security and SEO visibility. Our development process consists of three main areas.
UX/UI disain
Kasutajakogemuse ja visuaalse kujunduse loomine nii desktop kui mobiili jaoks. Disain lähtub ettevõtte brändist, eesmärkidest ja sihtrühmast. Tulemuseks on selge, kaasaegne ja konversioone toetav veebileht.
Front-end arendus
Disaini teostamine koodina – HTML, CSS ja JavaScript. Tagame, et leht näeb iga seadme ja ekraanisuurusega täpselt õige välja, laadib kiiresti ja vastab Google Core Web Vitals nõuetele.
Back-end arendus
Sisuhaldussüsteemi (WordPress) seadistamine, andmebaasi ülesehitus, custom funktsioonide arendus ja integratsioonid äritarkvaraga. Tagapõhi, mis hoiab kõike töös ja on turvaline.
In addition to design and development, each project also includes adding content, testing on different devices, going live, documentation and client training. Read more about the factors that influence the price of a website.

How we differ from template-based providers
In Estonia, many offer website development for €590-1490 – this is usually a template-based solution where the ready-made theme is adapted to your content. It is suitable for certain situations: start-up, MVP, quick start.
But if a business wants a web solution that grows with the business and delivers real results over the years, professional development is essential. There are three levels of difference:
- Custom-code vs off-the-shelf theme – we build every page with clean, optimized code. Templates are slow, redundant and similar to thousands of other websites.
- Technical SEO from the start – Schema markup, Core Web Vitals, structured data, clean URL structure. Template-based solutions implement SEO later (if at all).
- Interfaces and special solutions – business software, CRM, payment solutions. Templates don’t support this – need to change platform as business grows.
If you are looking for the cheapest solution, we are not the right choice. If you’re looking for a professional platform that supports your business for the long term – we’re talking.

Can you help with updating an existing website?
Yes. We offer new website development as well as upgrades and modernisation of existing websites. We will assess the condition of your existing site and recommend whether an upgrade is sufficient or whether it makes more sense to build a new one.
Do you offer after-development maintenance?

Does the price of website development include design?
Usually yes – the development price we offer includes UX/UI design, front-end and back-end development, content addition, testing and training. If you already have an existing design (such as Figmas), we can also negotiate a separate development scope with it.
What technologies do you use?
Core platform: WordPress (custom theme). In addition. Databases: MySQL, MariaDB, MS SQL. Mobile apps: Swift, Flutter. For each project, we choose the most appropriate technology – not the one that would be fastest for us.
How is professional website development different from template-based?
Template-based development (€590-1490) uses a ready-made theme, customised to your content. Suitable for MVPs or a quick start. Professional development starts with strategy – custom theme, optimized code, technical SEO from the start, interfaces. In the long run, this has a direct impact on the number of enquiries and sales results.
