Website redesign Padova: a quicker site, built on what you have
In Padova 45.5% of sites are built on WordPress, one in four uses a page builder and the average phone speed score is 64.4 out of 100. A website redesign with NFW Web Studio costs a fraction of what an agency charges, landing pages included: we preserve the copy and addresses that work and rework design, code and SEO basics. We work from Verona for Padova businesses and for companies across Italy and Europe.
I have a WordPress site: is redoing it worth it?
Not always. If it works, loads fast and brings enquiries, keep it and look after it. A redesign pays off when it is slow on a phone, when every plugin update breaks something or when the design no longer tells the company's story.
One thing to say plainly: we do not work in WordPress. If you need someone to update plugins and theme, we are not the right choice. If you want a quick site free of plugins, we rewrite it in code using your copy and your addresses.
- Copy, structure and pages that work stay; the rest is reorganised.
- No old address is dropped: it stays or points to the new page, and Google meets no 404.
- Fresh visuals on your brand, lean code, images in modern formats.
- SEO basics redone from scratch: titles, descriptions, structured data, sitemap, Search Console.
What is the cost of a redesign in Padova?
Redoing a whole site or a landing page costs far less than at an agency. It also costs less than a new site, because copy, photos and the design basics already exist.

We completely rebuild your pages using cutting-edge technology, starting from your existing landing page. We recommend this service when your pages are difficult to maintain or update, slow, unattractive, not mobile friendly, or missing SEO fundamentals entirely.

The figures come from Overture Maps listings: many businesses are not mapped or do not list a website, so the shares describe the listings, not every business in the town. How we read the data.
Which technologies slow Padova's websites down?
The most common technologies, as a share of working sites. They explain much of the slowness: compatibility layers, old libraries and page builders loading everything everywhere.
Two sites in three load jQuery, nearly one in two is WordPress
Of 4,377 working sites: jQuery 66%, WordPress 45.5%, jQuery Migrate 41.2%, Elementor 13.8%, Slider Revolution 8.1%, WPBakery 7.4%.
Sites with jQuery average a speed of 62.6, against 64.4 for the city. It is not the technology itself that weighs, it is the pile up: theme, plugins, sliders and libraries nobody removed in ten years. A redesign takes that layer out rather than stacking a new one on top.
