The company was engaged to design and develop a new website for our one-year-old business. The project focused on capturing and strengthening our brand identity, enhancing our online presence, and ensuring that our digital image accurately reflected who we are and what we do.

Sven was always helpful, but at times had a lot on his plate. The project management and timings could be vague, but they always delivered you just need to be patient and not in a rush

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Cost effective, they make their money through affiliate web hosting so good for the client too.

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Free Website Guys could have done differently?

I think there are limitations but maybe this is the only way they can make it work. The website can only be simple, limited number of hours and can only contact via email, emails can get missed or slow response. I think while there is a clear process it is very high level and can be broken down and perhaps a project plan that works well for both parties so some sense of timings.

My new small business was fortunate enough to have been accepted by The Free Website Guys, and I have to say they have been AWESOME to work with. 

They have been communicative, professional, and very dependable during the process. They recently completed my website based on the template I chose, and I am excited to jump in and start editing it! They even provided me with a very detailed and helpful Handover document to follow as I edit. 

It's been a great experience working with them and I am so grateful for all they have done!" 

Thanks again, Sven!

I am an aspiring writer and illustrator who needed a portfolio website for querying originally written fantasy novels and children's picture books. I am also the founder of an English-speaking Moms Community and needed:

1. All of my written and artistic samples to be in one space (fantasy novels, poems, chilsdren's books & short stories)
2. A separate space for Moms Community Budapest, which showcased our vision, upcoming events and captured its essence
3. Content which displayed my skills in the best way possible, combining all the artistic, written and community material in a way that paved the path for potential collaborations

All of the above has been carried out successfully, however, quatitatively this can only be measured in terms of success getting published - which I can vouch for later this year since we are still working on minor enhancements on the website and only after that can I reach out to Literary Agents or Publishers.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

It was an absolute pleasure working with the Free Website Guys and Sven Nilsen in particular. They were professional, meticulous, helpful and a hundred percent invested in delivering what they had promised to.

Not only did they keep in mind all of the requirements that were originally needed in the creative website - but they made it even better than the version I had initially envisioned. Additional requests were readily accepted and implemented; useful tips were easily provided when asked for.

The biggest surprise was how well they understood my vision and accommodated their process to it - I was pretty sure I'd have to edit some part of the text that was added across the website - but this turned out to be flawless. This, coming from a soon-to-be professional writer, is high praise.

All in all a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend The Free Website Guys to anyone looking for quality work, invaluable support and partners who go the extra mile!

They say if something seems too good to be true, it usually is. But for the first time in my life, I’ve found an exception to that rule.

The Free Website Guys just built the most beautiful website for my 15-year-old niece to launch her business—completely free, no strings attached. We’ve tried off and on over the years to get a site up and running, but nothing ever stuck. Then came The Free Website Guys, and now she has a stunning site that’s going to kickstart her journey into creative entrepreneurship.
This is a huge gift—one we never could’ve afforded on our own. I’m honestly blown away and so incredibly grateful. The team was professional, responsive, and just amazing to work with. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

In fact, I’m so impressed that I’ll be hiring them for additional services to help my niece run and grow her site. It’s an investment I feel 100% confident making.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The Free Website Guys completed development of a stunning and professional website. They provided documentation along the entire process and were extremely easy to work with.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The company gave us an incredible gift by developing a beautiful and professional website completely free of charge—something we otherwise could not have afforded. They were trustworthy and communicative throughout the entire process. The quality of the website was indistinguishable from a paid project. It’s clear that this company has a genuine heart for supporting the community, especially young entrepreneurs—something that’s truly rare in this day and age. Sven was an absolute gem to work with - being a 'non-techie', I really aprpeciated his patience, kindess and willingness to explain in ways I could understand.

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Free Website Guys could have done differently?

Honestly, I'm stumped here. There is nothing they could have done differently.
