Your WordPress site, rebuilt without WordPress.
I still look after WordPress sites. But my recommendation is to move away from it: same content, same addresses, without WordPress underneath. No plugins, no updates, no database working on every visit, so your site becomes safer, considerably faster and easier to maintain. Bring your WordPress site over and you get a new site with a new, modern design, hosting and management, all included. Changes go by WhatsApp or email and I do them quickly; normal changes are included in hosting.
FREE · HOW WE START
Show me your site. I'll build the rebuild as a prototype.
A WordPress site that's too slow, a shop that stumbles at checkout, a theme nobody has touched in years. Describe it in a few sentences. I'll turn it into something clickable, so you see your site without WordPress running instead of imagining it.
You describe it
In a few sentences, in your own words. The jargon is my part of the job.
I build it
Within a few days there's a clickable prototype of your site.
You see it running
If it convinces you, we talk about doing it properly. If not, that's it, no strings attached.
A single flow you can click through. No real data, no connection to your systems, no support. The point is to see the idea before anyone spends money.
What changes for you
Rebuilt, not converted
I rebuild your pages and content as a lean site, with your current design or a new, modern one. Texts, images and addresses come along, nothing is lost. What made it slow stays behind.
Changes by WhatsApp or email
No admin panel to learn, no login to forget. You write what should change, I do it quickly. Normal changes are included in hosting.
Hosting included
Your new site runs on European servers: SSL, backups, monitoring. One flat monthly price, with the new site, the new design and normal changes included.
Rebuild, hosting and changes
One contact, one invoice, one person responsible. Ideal for freelancers and small businesses who want a site that works, not a system to look after.

- You talk to me, not to a salesperson.
- I write the code. I answer the WhatsApp. I fix the bug.
- No agency overhead: you pay for the work, not for the layers around it.
- 25+ years of web. WordPress since version 1.5, so I know where it slows down.
Why without WordPress
Most WordPress sites are not slow because of their content. They are slow because of the machinery underneath: plugins, page builders, a database that gets asked on every visit, updates that need watching. If your site mainly shows who you are and what you offer, it does not need that machinery.
Considerably faster
Pages are delivered ready-made instead of being assembled on every visit. Visitors and Google both notice.
Nothing to update
No core, no plugins, no theme updates. What isn't there can't break one morning and can't be attacked through an outdated plugin.
Backups you can actually restore
Daily, kept for 30 days, stored away from the server itself. A backup nobody has ever restored is a hope, not a backup, so I test the restore.
A person on WhatsApp or email
No ticket system, no first-level support reading from a script. You write, I answer and make the change.
Normal changes are included in hosting. Larger extensions get a fixed price beforehand.
How the switch works
Switching is not the hard part. Switching so that nobody notices is. Search rankings, e-mail, SSL certificates and the moment the domain points to the new site all have to line up.
Copy first, switch later
Your new site is built and tested while the WordPress site keeps running. Only when everything works does the domain point to the new one.
Rankings stay where they are
Every URL keeps its address, or gets a permanent redirect if it cannot. Google sees a move, not a new website with a lot of dead links.
E-mail moves too, and it moves last
Mailboxes are copied before the switch, not after. That is the step most moves get wrong, and it is the one that makes customers notice.
A way back
The old WordPress installation stays untouched for two weeks. If anything turns up that we did not foresee, switching back takes minutes.

Staying on WordPress is fine too
The rebuild fits most sites that mainly present a business. For the others there is a better way, and I'll tell you which one after looking at your site.
You edit a lot yourself
If you change texts, photos or pages several times a week, writing to me each time slows you down. Then Palimpalem, our own website builder, fits better: you edit everything yourself, or tell its chat what to change.

Fine. Then I look after it with managed hosting: I do the updates, plus backups, monitoring and service, and changes too if you want.
Your site depends on plugins
Many plugins do one specific job. Today I can usually build that job myself at reasonable cost, which saves you the plugin licences. If a plugin should stay, it runs under managed hosting together with your site.
FAQ
Does my design stay?
If you want, yes. Or we use the rebuild to refresh it. Either way, texts, images and page addresses come along.
What does the rebuild cost?
Nothing extra. If your site moves to my hosting, the new site, the new design, hosting and management are all included. Write me briefly and you get a non-binding offer together with a proposal for your new design.
Can I still change things myself?
There is no admin panel to log into. You write me on WhatsApp or by email what should change, and I do it quickly. Normal changes are included in hosting.
Do you speak English?
Yes. Plus Spanish and German. I've lived in Madrid since 1993.
My site was built by someone else. Can you still rebuild it?
Yes. I look at the site first and tell you what I find, including the parts you will not like. If the rebuild does not make sense for your case, I say so instead of taking the money.
How fast are changes done?
Quickly. Usually the same working day. If your site is down, that comes before whatever else I was doing.
Is any of my content lost?
No. Texts, images, pages and their addresses come along. Where an address cannot stay, it gets a permanent redirect so Google and old links still find it.
What if I want to leave?
The site stays yours. You get all files, no lock-in, no handover fee, no month of notice.
