Website development
We start with the job your website has to do - what a visitor needs to understand and be able to do on it. We plan the structure, design, content and technical approach, then build a site that your team can manage and continue developing. If you already have a site, we can also assess whether to take it over or rebuild it.

What's included
What's included in website development?
We set the scope of development for each project. Below are the main areas we assess when planning a new website.
Structure and content
We define the information architecture, the main user journeys and the content a visitor needs to make a decision or take action.
Design
We design the interface around your brand, content and functionality, rather than making the project fit an arbitrary off-the-shelf template.
Development
We choose WordPress, Drupal or custom development according to your content, integrations, security and maintenance needs, and whatever else the project requires.
Responsive design
We adapt the interface for phones, tablets and larger screens, and test the key actions at different screen sizes.
Technical SEO
For indexing, we get the technical foundation in order, including page structure, metadata, performance and appropriate structured data markup. We do not guarantee Google rankings or citations in AI search.
Before you enquire
A website is part of the buying decision
On your website, a potential customer checks what you offer, whether the information is clear and what to do next. That is why we look at more than appearance and check the site's structure, content, speed, forms and any other point where a visitor might give up. With an existing site, we first establish what is worth keeping and what needs to change.
For every project -
a clear rationale.

Process
Website development process
Discovery
We establish the goal, the audience, where things stand today, what content is needed and the key technical requirements.
Design
We create the interface concept and the key pages, so that the design decisions that matter are agreed before any code is written.
Development
We build the site as approved, and set up content management, integrations and the technical SEO planned for the project.
Testing
We test the key functions, forms and integrations, check the interface at different screen sizes and run technical checks on the site.
Launch and training
We prepare the site to go live and, if training is part of the project scope, train your team to manage content.
Maintenance
After launch, we can continue with maintenance, updates, monitoring and further improvements.
Pricing
How much does website development cost?
The price is driven by the amount of design and content, the functionality, the integrations, the number of languages, data migration and other aspects of the project. The price calculator gives you an approximate idea of the cost before we have looked into your specific project. We explain how the price is built in the article How much does a website cost in 2026?
We prepare the final proposal once the requirements have been clarified. It sets out the scope of work, the pricing model, the timeline and the key assumptions, so that both sides are clear about what is included.

Working with us, in our clients' words.
References from organisations we have worked with on development, maintenance and digital communication projects. Translated from the Latvian original.
During our work together, the websites were maintained, unexpected operational problems were dealt with and recommendations were made on security and speed. The work was done well and on schedule.
The service was provided on time and to a high standard. During the maintenance period, technical shortcomings were remedied, improvements were made, new functionality was implemented and existing modules were developed further.
Development and maintenance of the website were delivered on time and to a high standard, in line with the contract requirements. The organisation recommends CreateIT as an IT service provider.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
We read every message and reply within one working day. If the answer isn't here, email us.
What does the cost of a website depend on?
The price depends on the size of the site, the website design and content work, the functionality, the integrations, the number of languages and data migration. You can estimate the approximate level with the price calculator on this page, and we prepare a detailed estimate once the requirements have been discussed. There is more on how the price is built in the article How much does a website cost in 2026?
How long does it take to build a website?
The timeline depends on the scope, the design, how ready the content is, the integrations and how long approvals take. The price calculator shows indicative timelines for typical project types; for a specific project, we set the schedule once we have assessed the requirements.
Will I be able to edit the site's content myself?
If managing the content yourself is part of the project requirements, we choose a suitable content management system and configure the fields you can edit. We define the scope of training and handover as part of the project.
Will the site be visible on Google and in AI search?
For indexing, we can get the technical foundation in order during development, including structure, metadata, performance and appropriate structured data markup. On its own, that does not guarantee Google rankings or citations in AI search. Competitive search queries call for further SEO work.
Can you improve or rebuild an existing site?
Yes. We first assess the current technical state of the site, its content and the changes needed. If the existing site is worth keeping, we can take it over and improve it; we recommend a rebuild when that makes more sense technically or financially.
Will we own the website and its code?
We recommend registering the domain, hosting and administrator access in your company's name, and the rights to the code, design and content we create are set out in the contract. That way you can keep developing the website with another developer too.
What happens after the website goes live?
After launch we check analytics, forms and indexing in search engines, and show your team how to manage the content. If you wish, we continue with website maintenance - updates, monitoring, backups and further development.
Can you finish a website another developer started?
Yes. First we review the existing code, design, content and server environment and assess what can be used. Then we agree whether to continue the existing project or rebuild part of it, and only after that do we prepare a proposal.
Do you build websites for companies outside Latvia?
Yes. We are based in Riga but work remotely, so the country you are in makes no difference. We work in English or Latvian, and we also build multilingual websites with the structure and SEO each language needs.
Do you also design the website?
Yes. Website design is part of the development - we create the structure and a prototype, the visual design for desktop and mobile and the components the site is built from. If you already have a design or brand guidelines, we build to them.
