Do you actually work with businesses in Gdansk?

Yes, remotely. I work with Polish clients from Islamabad, quoting in PLN and invoicing in PLN. I have no office, address or phone number in Gdansk and will not pretend otherwise. If your project needs someone physically present, hire locally — I will say so in the first reply rather than after a deposit.

How much does a website cost in Gdansk?

A business website starts from zł320 and goes live in about three days. An e-commerce build starts from zł600 in around seven days, and a custom application from zł800 in ten. Those are starting figures — the exact number is fixed in writing once scope is agreed, and it does not move after that.

What currency will I be invoiced in?

PLN. Quotes, milestones and the final invoice are all written in PLN so you are never comparing a converted figure against a local supplier's. Regarding tax: VAT at 23%, reverse-charged.

Who owns the website when it is finished?

You do, completely. The domain is registered in your name, hosting sits in your account, the code lives in a repository you control, and any payment provider account is opened in your business name. Credentials are handed to you as they are created rather than at the end, so you are never locked out of your own site.

Will the site actually rank in Gdansk search results?

The build handles what is technically controllable: crawlable HTML, correct headings, structured data, fast pages, a clean sitemap and Search Console set up on day one. Ranking also depends on your competitors, your domain's age and the links pointing at you, which no developer controls. Anyone guaranteeing a position is guessing or lying.

What happens if I am not happy with the result?

Work is delivered in milestones against a written scope, and you review each one on a staging URL before it is paid for. If the delivered milestone does not match the scope, it gets corrected before anything moves forward. That structure exists so disagreement is resolved at the stage it happens rather than at the end when it is expensive.

Do you build on WordPress or something custom?

Whichever the project justifies. WordPress when you need to edit content constantly and want a familiar admin. A static build when speed and security matter more than a plugin ecosystem. Custom PHP and MySQL when the logic is genuinely yours. The choice is explained in the quote with its trade-offs, not presented as a foregone conclusion.

Web developer in Gdansk

Websites, online stores and technical SEO for Gdansk businesses — built remotely from Islamabad, quoted in PLN, scoped in writing before anything starts.

The useful question is not what a website in Gdansk costs. It is what one enquiry is worth to you, because that number decides everything else. A business where a lead is worth four figures should not be optimising a build down to the last hundred; a business selling a low-margin product cannot afford a bespoke platform. I ask this first and it changes the recommendation more often than not.

What working with a Polish client actually changes

These are the terms that differ by country rather than by town. They apply to every business in Poland, Gdansk included, and they are the substance of what this page is claiming.

Quoted and invoiced in	PLN — never a converted figure presented at the end
Tax position	VAT at 23%, reverse-charged
Your customers' data sits under	the EU GDPR
Lawful transfer mechanism	a DPA with EU Standard Contractual Clauses
Checkout can realistically use	BLIK, Przelewy24, PayU, and Stripe
My day, in Gdansk time	06:00–15:00 — about 6 hours inside a normal working day

One thing worth knowing about building for Poland

BLIK is a six-digit code generated in the banking app and it is how a large share of Polish buyers pay. It has no real analogue in a Western checkout, so it needs designing in rather than appending to a card form.

How a Gdansk build is scoped before anything is written

Scope is fixed in writing before development starts, and the number in that document is the number on the invoice. For Gdansk projects that document lists every page, every form, every integration and every third-party account the site will touch — priced in PLN, not converted at the end from something else.

The reason this matters more than it sounds: almost every dispute in web development is a scope dispute wearing a different hat. "Can you just add" is how a three-day build becomes a three-week one. Fixing scope up front does not stop you changing your mind; it makes the cost of changing your mind visible before you commit to it, which is the only honest way to run a fixed price.

Trades and field services in Gdansk

Builders, electricians, plumbers, roofers and installers share one problem: the customer is deciding on their phone, often standing in the room with the problem, and they will call the first firm that looks like it will pick up. Three things decide it — the phone number tappable in the header, a coverage list naming their town, and photographs of your own finished work rather than stock.

The thing trades sites most often get wrong is the quote form. Asking for a full address, a project budget and a preferred start date before anything else is a form built for your admin convenience, not for the customer. Two fields and a photo upload will produce more enquiries than eight fields ever will, and the rest can be collected on the call you just earned.

Structured data that is missing, wrong, or quietly lying

Schema markup is how a search engine reads what a page means rather than only what it says. Missing it costs you rich results. Getting it wrong is worse: marking up review stars you do not have, or a LocalBusiness at an address that is not yours, risks a manual action rather than a ranking.

Every page I build carries schema matching what is actually on it and nothing beyond that. The restraint is deliberate — this page uses Service and areaServed rather than LocalBusiness, precisely because there is no physical presence in Gdansk to assert.

Hiring a developer who is not in Gdansk

What makes remote work fail is almost never the distance. It is the absence of a written record — decisions made on calls, nothing agreed in text, two people remembering different things six weeks later. Every Gdansk project runs with the scope, the change log and the decisions in writing, which is dull and is the entire reason the fixed price holds.

What I build for Gdansk businesses

Fixed-scope, fixed-price, quoted in PLN. The full list is on the services page.

E-commerce website development I build online stores end to end — catalogue, cart, Stripe checkout, order emails and the technical SEO that gets them found. Six of the fifteen sites I have shipped are e-commerce builds, and every one of them takes real payments. From $150 · 7 days Technical SEO audits and implementation Most SEO audits hand you a 60-page document and an invoice. I am a developer first, so I find the problems and then fix them in the codebase — crawlability, indexation, schema, Core Web Vitals, and whether AI answer engines can read your site at all. From $80 · 3 days Business website development Most small business websites fail at one job: turning a stranger who searched for your service into a phone call. I build the version that does — three days, mobile-first, live on your own hosting, with the enquiry form tested before anybody sees it. From $80 · 3 days Custom website development A template is the right answer more often than developers like to admit. This page is about the times it is not — when the thing your business does has a shape no theme author anticipated, and forcing it into one costs more in permanent workarounds than building it properly would have cost once. From $200 · 10 days Web application development A website presents information. An application does work — it holds state, enforces rules, and produces something at the end. Most businesses that need the second one are running it on a spreadsheet nobody is allowed to sort, and paying for that in errors rather than in software. From $200 · 10 days

What I am not claiming about Gdansk

A location page is the easiest place on a website to imply something untrue, so here is the other side of it plainly:

I have no office, postal address or phone number in Gdansk
I cannot meet you in person, and if that is a requirement you should hire locally
I am not claiming existing clients in Gdansk specifically — my live work is listed on the work page and you can check it
Nothing on this page is a guarantee of search rankings, which no developer can honestly offer
