Everything youare wondering.

Who is Ferhat Remory?

I'm Ferhat Remory, a web developer and business developer from Belgium, active since 2006 at the crossroads of code and business. I build websites, webshops, platforms, and digital ecosystems myself, and think along on SEO, content, and sales — from strategy and design to build, launch, and growth.

Do you work alone or with a team?

I do design, development, content, and strategy myself. For photography, video, or other specialist work, I bring in regular partners I know and trust.

What makes this different from a web agency?

With me you get one point of contact instead of a chain of project managers and developers. Five disciplines (code, design, content, sales, strategy) come together in one person, which means faster turnaround and less noise in communication.

How long have you been doing this?

Since 2006 — more than 20 years of experience by now, from the first steps in code and SEO to the current combination of development and business development since 2024.

What languages can I reach you in?

Dutch, English, and Turkish, for clients in Belgium, the Netherlands, and beyond. I deliver communication and copy in all three languages.

What kind of websites do you build?

High-performance custom websites, built with custom code instead of templates: from a one-pager to a full site with service structure, portfolio, and self-management. Fast, mobile-first, with SEO basics and analytics built in.

Can you also build a webshop?

Yes, a webshop on your own server with full control over code, data, and payments (Mollie or Stripe), including product structure, filters, and SEO for product and category pages. See also the Apollo Watch Company project, which switched from Shopify to its own WooCommerce solution.

Do you also build web applications or internal dashboards?

Yes, fully custom dashboards, tools, and web apps, with an admin panel so you stay in control. Built for businesses getting stuck in disconnected tools, spreadsheets, and manual work.

Can you build a custom CRM?

Yes, a CRM or internal system that follows your sales and follow-up process instead of the other way around: statuses, automatic follow-up, reporting, and user roles, with migration of existing data if needed.

What is "vibe coding & prototypes"?

Building fast to learn: a working, clickable prototype with real data instead of a presentation you can only look at. Meant for founders and teams who want to test an idea before investing heavily.

Do you also build games or interactive platforms?

Yes. The portfolio includes Crime Club, Ottomaan and Port Father: browser games with their own economy, payments and a full admin panel. I also make city maps for games: your menu becomes a clickable city, with a HUD and windows that work on every device.

Do you also make a city map for my game?

Yes. Your menu becomes a clickable city in the style of your game, with a HUD and windows that open your existing pages, on every device. The design starts from €200, design with build-in from €500. More details and examples are on the page about city maps for games.

Can you improve an existing website instead of rebuilding it?

Yes. A UX/UI audit looks at structure, hierarchy, and the calls to action on the existing site, without immediately rebuilding everything. Sometimes the best advice is actually not to rebuild something.

Can I switch from Wix, JouwWeb or Shopify?

Yes. I take over your pages, texts and images, set up redirects so you keep your place in Google, and afterwards you are no longer tied to a subscription. Coming from a website builder, you get a switching discount. Each platform has its own page explaining how it works, for example Wix or JouwWeb.

Do you also do SEO and copywriting?

Yes: SEO audit, keyword research, content structure, and rewriting pages in plain language. I turn complex jargon into sales arguments that both rank and convert.

Will I also be found in ChatGPT and Google AI?

That is what GEO is for: building your site so AI answers such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews understand and mention your business. It is about clear structure, facts about your company, structured data and texts that answer real questions. I include it in every project, alongside classic SEO.

Can you speed up a slow or outdated website?

Yes, I start with a technical audit, followed by a rebuild or cleanup, security, and updates, and an ongoing maintenance arrangement if you'd like, so the site stays fast and secure.

Can you automate recurring tasks?

Yes, think of follow-up, reporting, data processing, and connections between systems. I first look at what's actually worth automating, and only then build it.

Do you also offer business development or sales consultancy?

Yes. That track combines digital expertise with commercial insight: sales strategy, follow-up and growth. You hire me per hour (€50), per half day (€200) or per day (€400), on its own or alongside your website or platform.

Can I just buy advice without having anything built?

Yes, consultancy per hour (€50), per half day (€200) or per day (€400). Sometimes the most valuable advice is not to build something.

What does a website cost?

It depends on scope and customisation. The packages on the pricing page are starting prices: a landing page from €500, a website from €1,250, a webshop from €1,800 and a platform from €2,500. After a thirty-minute conversation you get a fixed amount, not an open end.

Are the prices including VAT?

No VAT is added. Steirk LTD is not registered for VAT in the United Kingdom. If you are a business in the EU, you account for the VAT yourself in your own return, exactly as you do for other suppliers from outside the EU. The amounts listed are indicative; after the thirty-minute intake a fixed, final amount follows.

What do hosting, a domain name and email cost?

They are not part of the packages and are optional. Hosting costs €150 a year, €250 for a webshop. A domain name (.be, .nl, .com or .eu) costs €25 a year. A mailbox on your own domain costs €5 a month, billed yearly, and with every package the first mailbox is free for the first year. You see them as options in your quote, and you can also stay with your own provider.

How does the quote on the site work?

You choose a package and the parts you need, and immediately see an indicative price. You also get the quote as a PDF. The amounts are starting prices: you only know the exact cost after a thirty-minute conversation. After that you get a fixed price.

How does the Black Friday offer work?

In November you get a discount on every package, from 10% to 20%, plus GEO and SEO optimisation as a gift. Spin the prize wheel and you get a code for an extra gift or an extra discount, on top of the offer. The offer applies to every request in November, and your code works until 31 December.

How does payment work?

For a project I invoice 40% at the start and 60% on delivery. Hosting, domain name, email and maintenance are invoiced yearly.

How many rounds of revisions are included?

Two rounds of revisions are included with the packages. Extra rounds are billed hourly, always flagged in advance.

Do I own the website and the code?

Yes. The code and the domain name are in your name. If you host with me, you can always move: you get all files and the database. You are never tied to me to keep going with the site.

I don't need a full project, just a small change — is that possible?

Yes, standalone items like an extra page, a landing page, a smart form, an integration, or an SEO audit each have a fixed price listed on the pricing page.

Do you also offer maintenance after delivery?

Yes, through a maintenance plan from €50 a month, billed yearly: updates, monitoring and small changes. Optional, not required: you can also host it yourself or bring in another party.

How long does a project take?

A landing page in three to five days, a website in one and a half to two and a half weeks, a webshop in two to three and a half weeks. A platform takes three to six weeks per phase, and each phase goes live on its own. How fast it goes also depends on how quickly you give input.

What do I need to provide myself?

Info about your business, visuals if you have them, and one person who can decide. You're welcome to write the copy yourself, but I'm happy to help — it saves time and gets more out of the message.

How does the collaboration work, step by step?

Five steps: a free thirty-minute intake, a proposal with price and planning, building in short rounds that each go online, fine-tuning based on feedback, and then growing further with measurement, maintenance, or extensions.

Is requesting a quote non-binding?

Yes. The thirty-minute intake is free and without obligation. Only after that does a proposal with a fixed price follow.

Do I get to see the website before it's fully finished?

Yes, I build in short rounds and put every round online on a test environment, so you see progress instead of just reading a status update.

Do I get a client portal?

Yes. In your client portal on ferhat.io you follow your project with updates for each step, send me messages and find your quotes.

Do you also work outside Belgium and the Netherlands?

My home market is Belgium and the Netherlands. Working remotely is no problem, but I do like to meet clients in person at least once.

How quickly do I get a response?

Within one business day, by email, WhatsApp, or the contact form.

How do I get in touch?

Via ferhat@steirk.be, with a WhatsApp message to +32 483 11 29 95 (calls are not possible), via LinkedIn, or through the quote form on the site.

Should I choose a freelancer or a web agency?

That depends on what you need. With me, you get one point of contact who combines code, design, content, and sales, without the layer of account managers and handovers between teams that often comes with an agency. For a project that needs a whole team of specialized roles, an agency might make more sense.

Who can build a website for my SME in Belgium or the Netherlands?

I've been working with SMEs and entrepreneurs in Belgium and the Netherlands since 2006, combining development, design, copywriting, and SEO in a single engagement: from intake and design to build, launch, and growth.
