Your new website opens instantly on phones, works for everyone, and your team edits text, images and posts in the browser without calling me.
Move from
Most problems start after launch, as soon as your team wants to change something itself.
Every text change means an email to your agency.
WordPress reports new plugin updates every week, and nobody dares to install them.
Your website is noticeably slow on phones.
Someone on your team has already broken the layout while editing.
Four things every website from me comes with.
Services, team, references or job ads get their own fields. Your team fills them in, and the layout adapts by itself.
Three systems I build with. I recommend the one your team gets along with best day to day.
As of October 2026. If your team builds new layouts itself every week, Webflow is often the better choice.
“Christian built a great website for my business. It looks professional, it's user-friendly, and since he also optimized it for search engines, I've been getting more inquiries. […]”
You see every stage on a preview address before the domain moves.
What your new website costs
You get the price for design and build in writing before I start.
Your business depends on one plugin
A shop with many WooCommerce extensions or a booking system with no equivalent makes the move expensive. Then you're better off staying on WordPress.
Your team builds new layouts every week
EmDash isn't a page builder; I set the layout. If you assemble pages yourself by drag and drop, a visual builder serves you better.
Your website runs well and is maintained
If updates go in reliably and your team is happy, there's no reason to move quickly.

Christian Schmitt answersEmDash is a free content management system from Cloudflare, built on the Astro web framework. The stable version 1.0 has been out since September 28, 2026. EmDash is MIT licensed and runs on Cloudflare or any Node.js server.
Christian Schmitt answersFor business websites whose team mainly edits text, images and posts, yes. Plugins run isolated, pages load faster, and sign-in needs no password. EmDash is younger than WordPress, and the choice of plugins and themes is smaller.
Christian Schmitt answersThe software is free. On Cloudflare a simple website can run on the free plan, isolated plugins need Workers Paid from $5 a month (Cloudflare, October 2026). On top of that comes my work on design and build, with a fixed price in writing after the intro call.
Christian Schmitt answersYes. EmDash imports posts, pages, media and custom content types from the WordPress export. Theme and plugin features don't come with it; I rebuild those.
Christian Schmitt answersContent and addresses stay the same or are redirected. I set up a redirect for every changed address and then check in Google Search Console that Google finds all pages.
Christian Schmitt answersYes. I build it so it works with a keyboard and screen reader, has enough contrast and works with large text. Since June 28, 2025, the German accessibility law (BFSG) has required this of websites on which consumers enter into a contract.
Christian Schmitt answersYou do. Website, database and images live in your Cloudflare account or on your server. You invite me and can remove my access at any time.
