Custom design in Figma
Home page and key templates designed for your brand, approved on desktop and mobile before the build.
The Problem
Your Duda Sites Look Like Templates, and Clients Keep Breaking Them
Agencies choose Duda for client management and fast delivery. The trouble shows when every client site starts from the same template and clients can edit more than they should.
01 · Same templates
Client sites share the same few templates and look alike.
Each design is built natively in Duda from your Figma file, then saved for reuse.
02 · Mobile layouts
Sections collapse on mobile after a client edits them.
We design each breakpoint and protect layouts with client permissions.
03 · Slow pages
Huge photos and heavy embeds slow pages down on phones.
A speed pass compresses images and trims scripts before every launch.
04 · Rebuild time
Rebuilding each design by hand eats your margin.
Saved sections and an agency template give every new client site a head start.
You picked Duda so your agency could launch client sites fast and keep hosting in one place. Now most of your client sites share the same few templates, and prospects notice. A client drags a section on mobile and the layout collapses. Another uploads huge photos, and the home page crawls on a phone. Your designer works in Figma, but rebuilding each design by hand in the Duda editor eats the margin. Nobody has time to build sections the team can reuse.
We start with your design, or create one in Figma. Then we build it natively in Duda: global design settings, saved sections, and layouts checked at desktop, tablet, and mobile. Repeating content goes into Collections, and client permissions let owners edit text and photos without moving the layout. A speed pass trims images and scripts before launch. Your next client site starts from a template, not a blank page.
Built natively in Duda
Designs rebuilt with Duda's own sections and global styles, so clients edit them easily.
Every screen size checked
Desktop, tablet, and mobile layouts designed on purpose and tested on real phones.
Speed checked at launch
Images compressed and scripts trimmed, with PageSpeed measured before the site is handed over.
Our Duda Website Design Process
From Brief to Live Duda Site in Five Clear Steps
You approve the design before the Duda build starts, review each screen size on a preview link, and test the editing permissions your client will have.
We look at your Duda plan, current templates, and the site you need. You get an honest answer on whether Duda fits this project, which Duda plan features it relies on, and a fixed quote.
What's Included
What You Get With Duda Web Design
Every project covers design, the native Duda build, screen size checks, content structure, speed and SEO basics, and client handover, sized to pages, Collections, and widgets.

DeveloperLook vs DIY Template vs Freelancer
A Duda template gets a simple site live fast, and a freelancer can cost less per hour. Both suit some projects. Here is where each falls short for agency work.

| Upfront cost | From $600, fixed scope | Duda plan only | Lower hourly rate |
| Time to launch | 1 to 6 weeks | Same day for simple sites | Depends on availability |

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from agencies and business owners we have designed websites for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Work Culture
Why Agencies Trust Us With Their Duda Sites
Duda sites are quick to launch and easy to break. These habits keep each build consistent for your clients and profitable for your agency.
Duda only when it fits
If a client needs complex plugins, custom logic, or code they fully own, WordPress fits better. We'll tell you that before we quote.
Sections built for reuse
Every section we build is saved in your account with a clear name. Your team can drop it into the next client site without calling us.
Mobile designed, not stacked
We set each breakpoint by hand instead of trusting the default stack. Clients get a phone layout that was designed, not left over.
Permissions before handover
Client roles are set so owners edit text and photos while layouts and global styles stay protected. Fewer emergency fixes land in your inbox.
Duda plan limits named early
Dynamic Pages, custom widgets, and store features depend on your Duda plan. We list what your plan covers before the quote, not mid-build.
Your account, your clients
Sites, templates, and billing stay in your Duda account under your name. We work from a team seat and leave nothing tied to us.

Good fit
Agencies reselling Duda sites
Your agency sells Duda sites, but your Duda website designers are booked out and new client projects keep slipping to next month.
Agencies tired of lookalike templates
Your client sites all start from the same few templates, and you want custom designs your team can reuse without rebuilding from scratch.
Small businesses already on Duda
You picked the website builder Duda through your agency or host, and your site now needs a redesign you can still edit yourself.
Hosting and SaaS platforms on Duda
Your platform offers Duda sites to customers, and you need starter templates built natively so they launch something that already looks finished.
Owners with slow Duda sites
Your Duda site feels slow on phones, and you need someone to speed up the Duda website without redesigning everything around it.
Not a fit
Need plugins and custom code
Your site needs complex plugins, custom app logic, or code you can move to any host. Our WordPress Development Services page fits that better.
Prefer Wix and its apps
You're one business that prefers Wix Studio and its app market for bookings or stores. Our Wix Website Designer page covers that platform instead.
A large online store
You need a large catalog store with subscriptions and complex shipping rules. A dedicated ecommerce platform fits better, and our Ecommerce Website Design page covers it.
Budget under $600
Your budget is under $600 for the whole site. One of Duda's own templates, set up yourself on its Basic plan, is the better start for now.

Send a message or book a call with the team.
A Duda website designer at DeveloperLook starts at $600 for a template restyled to your brand with up to 5 pages. A custom Duda design starts at $1,500, and an agency template kit with custom widgets starts at $3,300. Duda's own subscription is separate: its pricing page lists plans from $19 per month billed annually.
A template refresh takes 1 to 2 weeks, and a custom Duda site or agency template kit takes 3 to 6 weeks. Content readiness drives the range more than design, since Duda builds move quickly once copy and photos arrive. We set the launch date when your content checklist is complete.
Partly: Duda is a website builder with built-in CMS features, not a classic CMS like WordPress. Collections store repeating content such as team members or listings, Dynamic Pages turn each item into its own page, and the Content Library holds shared text and images. Duda's support docs say Dynamic Pages need the Team plan or higher.
Our Duda web design service covers the design, the build inside Duda's editor, tablet and mobile layouts, forms, basic SEO settings, and a speed pass. Larger plans add Collections, custom widgets, and a reusable template. You also get client permissions set up and a recorded walkthrough for whoever edits the site.
We speed up a Duda website by compressing images, removing heavy embeds and scripts, and trimming custom code. Duda hosts the site itself, so most gains come from what's placed on each page. We target a 90+ mobile PageSpeed score, measure before and after, and show you both reports.
Yes, every Duda site is responsive, and its editor has separate desktop, tablet, and mobile views. Duda began with mobile websites before moving to responsive design, so a Duda mobile website can hide or restyle elements without touching desktop. We design the phone layout on purpose and test it on real devices.
Yes, we work from a team seat in your Duda account, so sites, templates, and client billing stay with you. Duda's Team plan includes 3 seats and its Agency and White Label plans include 6, according to its pricing page. We set client permissions so owners edit text and images without changing layouts.
Yes, with Duda's Widget Builder, which uses HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and needs the Agency plan or higher. Duda caps the Agency and White Label plans at 3 custom widgets, so we build only the ones you'll reuse across clients. Simpler needs usually fit Duda's own widgets or a small custom code block.
Duda suits agencies managing many small business sites that clients edit lightly, while WordPress suits sites needing plugins, complex logic, or full code ownership. Duda bundles hosting and platform updates into its subscription. WordPress gives more freedom but needs core and plugin updates, which our WordPress Development Services page covers.
You own the design files, the content, and the domain, while the site runs inside your Duda account and subscription. Moving off Duda later means rebuilding the design on another platform, so we hand over the Figma file and a copy of your content. Support runs 30 to 90 days, depending on plan.
