Website redesign
A new look and a modern layout without losing what already works: page URLs and SEO settings are kept so you do not lose visitors from search, and customers find what they need and get in touch more easily.
Who it is for
- Your website looks dated, and you feel awkward sending customers to it.
- The website brings in visitors from search, so rebuilding it from scratch and risking that traffic is not appealing.
- On a phone the site is hard to use: small text, buttons that do not respond, a broken menu.
- Your company has changed, with new services, branding or a logo, but the website has stayed the same.
What is included
- A review of the current site: what gets in the customer's way, what works and what must not be touched
- A new design for the key pages based on ready-made solutions and a UI library
- All pages rebuilt with a phone-first layout
- Existing copy, photos and pages moved into the new design
- Page URLs kept, with 301 redirects wherever a URL changes
- A check of meta tags, the sitemap and analytics after the design change
- Updated enquiry forms and Telegram and Viber buttons
Billed separately
- A custom design for every page type instead of a refresh on ready-made blocks
- Rewriting the copy and a new section structure
- Moving to another CMS or off a site builder
- New sections and features beyond the existing ones

FAQ
How much does a redesign cost?
From 2,400 BYN for a new design and layout that keeps the existing structure. The price is higher if you need a custom design, new sections or a move to another platform.
Will I lose my search rankings?
Any major change carries some risk, so I keep page URLs, titles and descriptions, and redirect any changed URLs with 301 redirects. After the switch I check indexing in Google and Yandex. Nobody can guarantee rankings, but these steps reduce the risk of losses.
Will the site go offline during the work?
No. I build the new design on a test copy while the current site keeps working as usual. We switch to the new design at an agreed time.
Can you redesign a site that another developer built?
Yes. First I look at what the site is built on and the state of its code. Sometimes it is cheaper to refresh the design on the current platform, sometimes to move the site to a new one. I give you the options and their prices before work starts.
How is a redesign different from a new website?
A redesign keeps what works: the structure, URLs, content and what the site has built up in search. A new website makes sense if the whole business is changing or the old structure gets in the way. We decide what suits you after reviewing the current site.
