Conviva Maris came to us with a troubled website. Specifically, years of bugs had piled up. The design was dated and broken. Moreover, the WordPress backend was fragile. Therefore, they needed a stable platform. One they could manage on their own.

Building the Website

First, we ran a full brand and website audit. This helped the client plan their budget. Next, we built core page templates. For example, index, listing, price, contact, and product pages. We also added multiple search tools to the frontend. Then, on the backend, we built custom WordPress modules. As a result, the client manages content without plugins or technical risk. Beyond that, we migrated the server. We also fixed broken contact forms. In addition, we synced cookie consent with Google and GDPR tools. Furthermore, we restored safe WordPress updates — a long-standing source of instability.

The rollout is phased. So we replace old pages with clean ones step by step. Today the site runs smoothly.

The New Website Impact

The impact showed up fast. For instance, pages that once went unindexed now rank on multiple platforms. That happened because of cleaner code and better content. Meanwhile, we improved both mobile and desktop experiences. Consequently, the client now manages the site with full confidence.

In short, the site went from a liability to a business asset.

A great website doesn’t just look good — it loads fast, ranks well, and stays out of your way. When all of that comes together, you stop worrying about your tech and start focusing on what actually grows your business. This project demonstrates that even a heavily compromised site can be turned into a performing platform with the right strategy and execution.

5/5

After several bad experiences with other contractors who left us with a non-functional website full of errors, we approached our collaboration with Zeljko from studio Simple with a degree of caution. However, from the very first communication, we saw that Zeljko's approach to the project was completely different from our previous collaborations with others. What impressed us the most was Zeljko's ability not only to visually transform our site into a modern and functional design but also to completely fix the technical issues from the past. As a full-stack designer, he handled the entire job independently - from the visual identity and UI, through programming, to seamless integration into WordPress.

We particularly want to praise the development of custom modules tailored to our needs, which has made managing content much easier for us. Today, we finally have a website that runs stably and quickly, and we can edit content without fear that something might "break". However, what won us over was the communication.

Zeljko didn't just "build us a website", he restored our trust in digital collaborators.

And most importantly of all, Zeljko's goal wasn't just to "complete the job and get paid" and then withdraw as soon as it was delivered. Throughout the entire process, he gave concrete suggestions, warned us in advance about things that could cause problems later, and invested his time to make the website as good as possible. He leaves nothing to chance: he checks and tests everything, and explains decisions clearly and sensibly. Of all the people we have collaborated with so far, Zeljko impressed us the most with his approach - thorough, organized, transparent, and always focused on the solution. This was our best collaboration to date, which is why we are sure we will work with him on future projects as well. If you want a partner you can fully trust and who will do the job properly, without improvisation, we sincerely recommend Zeljko and studio Simple.
