What is SiteZen?

One calm home for everything on the web

Smit Media builds apps. SiteZen is the part of Smit Media for websites: the brand under which I build sites for people and companies who want a beautiful, fast website without a pile of plug-ins, subscriptions and settings.

You talk to one person, you get a site that is yours, and it keeps working without constant maintenance. Prices are always on request, because every site is different.

  • Own CMS, no database
  • Own software
  • Personal contact

What I build

Three ways to a Zen website

HTML5

Website

A hand-built, static HTML5 website. Extremely fast, very safe and cheap to keep online. Perfect when the content rarely changes.

  • Lightning-fast pages
  • No database to hack
  • Light and dark theme
  • Several languages

3 versions, with or without extras

The package with a manual, to put on your own hosting.

I put it online and set everything up for you, forms tested.

Everything above plus SSL certificate, mailboxes and server tweaks.

Own CMS

Website + CMS

A website with our own CMS: a calm admin that anyone understands. Edit pages, posts, photos and forms yourself. Built on flat files, so no database and no plug-ins.

  • Calm, clear admin
  • Pages, blog, forms, gallery
  • Built-in security
  • Demo available

3 versions, with or without extras

WordPress

For WordPress

WordPress theme

Already on WordPress, or want to be? A theme in the same calm style: clean, fast and without a heap of extra plug-ins.

  • Made for WordPress
  • Fast and tidy
  • Few plug-ins needed
  • Light and dark

3 versions, with or without extras

The package with a manual, to put on your own hosting.

I put it online and set everything up for you, forms tested.

A new theme or a refresh for your current WordPress, with your plug-ins blended in.

Optional extras, with any version

  • Security audit
  • Moving your old site
  • Mailboxes and forms
  • Module on request
  • Hosting and domain advice

Highlights

Why it feels different

  • Fast by design

    Light pages, no heavy plug-ins, so your site loads in a blink.

  • Safe

    No database to attack and security built in from the start.

  • Calm to manage

    An admin that is clear to everyone, without a maze of menus.

  • Multilingual

    Your site in several languages, each with its own page and address.

  • Light and dark

    Visitors choose their own theme, and the site follows.

  • One-on-one

    No call centre, no subscriptions: you talk to the person who builds your site.

A look inside

    I build

    I build your site and you can look along from the start.

    Your site goes live. Questions later? You know where to find me.
