About me

I'm Pavel Startsev, a web developer in Lappeenranta building fast sites for local businesses.

Many small businesses end up in one of two places. Either they pay an agency thousands of euros for a slow, heavy site, or they make one with a website builder and it rarely shows up on Google. I build light, fast sites that appear in local searches and bring in enquiries.

Why I work differently

  • No heavy templates or unneeded plugins

    Many business sites are slow because they run on a heavy theme with dozens of plugins. I build light sites with clean code and no plugins that need constant updates. Janne Päivikkö's site, for example, scores 98/100 for phone speed in Google's own test.

  • You see the numbers yourself

    I track where your site ranks on Google and measure its speed before and after launch, and you get the numbers, the same way my project pages show them.

  • Control without touching code

    You shouldn't have to pay someone every time you change a price or post a notice. You get an admin panel where you update texts and prices yourself in a couple of minutes.

  • You see it before you pay

    I build a working version of your new site before you pay anything. If you don't like the direction or the result, you owe nothing.

Tools

  • SemrushKeyword research and tracking of Google rankings
  • Google Search ConsoleChecking that Google finds every page
  • Google PageSpeed InsightsGoogle's speed test, which you can run yourself

And more, depending on the project.
