Your English
web presence,
done right.

Tvoja engleska
web prisutnost,
kako treba.

Native English. Hand-built sites. For Istrian businesses serving the world.

Good Croatian businesses lose international bookings to worse competitors with better English. I write the words, build the site, or fix what's already there — so your website does the talking when you're not in the room.

N° 01 / Premise

Why this
matters.

Good Croatian businesses lose international bookings to worse competitors with better English. The site is doing the talking when you're not in the room — and most Adriatic sites are talking with an accent guests can hear.

Istrian businesses pour money into Croatian web design that ends with a translation pass — usually by a friend, sometimes by Google. The result reads as exactly what it is: foreign. International guests don't always know what's off, but they feel it, and feelings convert (or don't) at the booking button.

I write English the way English speakers actually use it. And because I build the sites too — hand-coded, fast-loading, hosted on your own domain — the words and the structure stay one piece. No template fighting your copy. No agency middleman between you and the language your customers read.

What I
actually do.

A · Write
Write the English.

Copy audit and rewrite for your existing site. Booking pages, about pages, service descriptions, listings — turned into English that reads like it was written, not translated.

  • Copy audit
  • Page rewrites
  • Translation review
B · Build
Build or rebuild.

New websites, hand-coded in HTML and CSS, hosted on your own domain. Fast, light, and shaped to your business — not to whatever a template wanted you to be.

  • Full builds
  • Own domain · Own hosting
  • Fast · Light · Yours
C · Fix
Fix what's already there.

Wix, Squarespace, WordPress — most sites don't need replacing, they need repair. Broken English, dated layouts, slow load times. I work inside what you already have.

  • Wix / Squarespace / WordPress
  • English overhaul
  • Speed & layout fixes
N° 04 / Process

How a project
actually goes.

No retainers. No mystery invoices. One conversation, one quote, one fixed price. Then we build the thing — and you own it.

  1. Conversation

    Free first call. Tell me about your business, your customers, and where the current site (or absence of one) is letting you down. No commitment — half the time I'll tell you a rewrite is enough.

  2. Scope & Quote

    Within a week: a written scope (what's in, what's out, what's optional) and a fixed price. Not an estimate. The number on paper is the number you pay.

  3. Build

    I work in drafts you can see. You get a staging link, you give feedback, we iterate. Most full sites take 3–4 weeks; rewrites and fixes take days.

  4. Handover

    The site goes live on your hosting, under your domain. You own the files, the code, and the content. No platform lock-in. No monthly fees flowing to me.

  5. After

    Need updates later? I'm here, paid hourly, no contract. Want to handle your own edits? I'll show you how. Real receipts via my obrt either way.
