How much does a website cost?

It depends on how many pages you need, whether the copy already exists and whether you need an area you can manage yourself. After the first call you get a precise figure in writing, with no obligation.

Who writes the copy and takes the photos?

Usually you provide the content and I lay it out. If you do not have it, I guide you with a set of questions, or we bring in a copywriter and a photographer: I tell you in the proposal, no surprises.

What happens after launch?

The first month of fixes is included. After that you can manage it yourself — the code is yours — or move to a maintenance plan with hours included every month.

Do you work with agencies on a white-label basis?

Yes, gladly: I sign NDAs, work on a day rate or per project, and only speak to your client directly if you want me to.

In Cesena, in the Forlì-Cesena province of northern Italy. I work with clients across Romagna and the rest of the country, and remotely beyond it: a project runs almost entirely online, with a link you can check at any time to see how it is progressing.

Do you work outside Italy?

Yes. I work remotely in Italian and English, with meetings in European hours.

Is a 3D configurator right for my product?

If it has variants — colours, materials, sizes, components — almost certainly yes. Send me two photos and your price list: I will tell you within half an hour whether it makes sense, free of charge.

Real projects, told in full

CASE STUDYtorredeicapocci.com

Torre dei Capocci

Showcase website for a medieval tower in the heart of Rome, home to an engraving and chiselling workshop active since 1936.

CHALLENGE: A heritage of history and craftsmanship that only existed in person: no online presence, no browsable catalogue of the works.
WORK: Content architecture along three paths (the tower, the spaces, the craft), a catalogue of the master engraver's works, SEO setup and launch.
RESULT: The workshop finally has a place to send visitors and customers to.

03 — specialty

3D in the browser is not a special effect: it is a sales tool

A configurator shows the customer exactly the product they are ordering. It works on any device, with nothing to install.

Fewer returns: buyers have already seen what they will receive.
Less work for the sales team: customers explore the variants themselves.
More time on the product page, and a reason to come back.
Tuned to run smoothly even on mid-range smartphones.

04 — how I work

Four steps, no surprises

You do not need any technical expertise: just a clear goal. I take care of the rest, and keep you posted as each milestone is reached.

01
Discovery call
30 free minutes to understand the goal, the context and the constraints. If I am not the right person, I will tell you straight away.
02
Written proposal
What I deliver, in how long, at what price and what I need from you. No cost before you sign.
03
Build with live demos
A link where you can watch the project grow and give me feedback, to make sure we are heading in the right direction.
04
Launch and support
Going live, training on how to use it where needed, and one month of fixes included.

05 — pricing

Ballpark figures, so nobody wastes time

Every project is different, so these figures and timeframes are indicative: they are here to show whether we are in the same ballpark. The precise estimate comes with the quote after the first call. After delivery, the first month of fixes is included.

You can pay in instalments

The cost can be split into several instalments, agreed together before we start: you do not need the whole amount up front.

SERVICE	FROM	TYPICAL TIMING	TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE (OPTIONAL)
Landing page	€ 800	1–2 weeks	from € 20 / month
Showcase site	€ 1,500	2–4 weeks	from € 35 / month
Custom web app	€ 6,000	6–12 weeks	from € 120 / month
3D configurator	€ 8,000	8–16 weeks	from € 160 / month

The fee can also be billed annually, with a 15% discount. The amount is calibrated on the project at launch: if traffic, data or the number of people using it grows over time, the fee is revisited together. It does not increase without warning.

06 — about

My background

I am a Software Developer specialized in 3D and immersive technologies (XR).

My path started at ITS Academy Adriano Olivetti, where I built a solid foundation in Unity development and real-time 3D programming, then expanded toward a broader software development perspective.

Web development grew out of that: 3D configurators were the point where a real-time background met the browser. That work led to custom web apps, internal tools and client portals, websites and landing pages, which today make up the main part of my work. I work from Cesena, in northern Italy, with clients across the country and beyond.
