Your Freelance Web Developer in France
I build custom websites that attract your clients and convert them. Hand-coded, optimized for Google, delivered in 2 to 8 weeks.
Your Website Should Be Working For You
You may already have a website. Or maybe not yet. Either way, you know your online presence isn't delivering the results your business deserves.
- Your site doesn't show up on Google when potential clients search for your services
- Your site takes too long to load and visitors leave before seeing the first page
- Your site isn't mobile-friendly, even though over 60% of searches in France happen on smartphones
- Your site was built with a generic template that looks like everyone else's
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone. And more importantly, there's a solution.
A Web Developer Who Understands Your Market
I'm Mohamed, a freelance web developer based in France. I'm not an agency with 50 employees and five-figure invoices. I'm your single point of contact, from the first conversation to post-launch support.
Custom-coded, not a template
Every site I build is constructed line by line with modern technologies (React, Next.js). No WordPress, no Wix, no recycled templates. Your site is unique because your business is unique.
Optimized for Google from day one
SEO isn't an add-on charged extra. It's built into every page I develop: clean HTML structure, fast load times, optimized meta tags, server-rendered content that Google can actually read.
Transparent pricing, no surprises
No bloated quotes with incomprehensible line items. My rates are public and my projects are fixed-price. You know exactly what you're paying before we start.
Communication in English, French, or German
I work with businesses across France and Europe. Whether you're in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, or Strasbourg, everything works remotely with response times of a few hours.

Freelancer vs Agency: What's the Difference for You?
A freelancer isn't the right choice for everyone. If your project needs a team of 10 or a budget of €100,000, an agency will be more suitable. But for the vast majority of SMBs, an experienced freelancer offers the best value for money.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to create a website in France?
The price of a website in France varies widely depending on the project type and provider. A simple showcase site with a freelancer costs between €450 and €3,000. An e-commerce site starts around €2,200 to €5,000. A custom web application can range from €5,000 to €25,000 or more. By comparison, agencies typically charge between €5,000 and €20,000 for a showcase site, and up to €50,000 for a complex e-commerce platform. At WebCraftDev, projects start at €450 with fixed pricing and no surprises.
How long does it take to build a website?
A showcase site of 5 to 10 pages typically takes 2 to 3 weeks. An e-commerce site requires 3 to 6 weeks. A complex web application can take 2 to 3 months. These timelines include design, development, and testing phases. The biggest factor on the client side is feedback speed: the faster you validate each step, the faster the project moves forward.
Do you only work with businesses in the Paris region?
No, I work with businesses across France and Europe. All communication happens remotely via video calls, email, and messaging. My clients are based in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Strasbourg, Bordeaux, Nice, and other cities. Distance has zero impact on work quality or response times.
Is GDPR compliance included?
Yes. Every site I build includes essential GDPR compliance elements: configurable cookie consent banner, privacy policy page, compliant forms with legal notices, and secure personal data handling. For more specific needs (external DPO, full compliance audit), I can refer you to a specialist.
Why not use WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace?
These platforms are convenient for getting started quickly at low cost. But they have significant limitations: slower load times (bad for SEO and user experience), dependency on third-party plugins for features, limited customization, and frequent security vulnerabilities. A custom-coded site is faster, more secure, and fully adapted to your needs. It belongs 100% to you and doesn't depend on any platform.
Can you build a multilingual website?
Yes, multilingual sites are a specialty. I develop bilingual and trilingual sites (French, English, German) with architecture optimized for SEO in each language. This means each language version has its own URLs, meta tags, and optimized content - not just an automatic translation.
What happens if I'm not satisfied with the result?
The design phase happens before development. You approve mockups before coding begins. During development, you have access to a preview version and can give feedback at every stage. This iterative process ensures the final result matches your expectations. If something still doesn't work for you, I commit to making the necessary corrections.
Will my site show up on Google?
Every site I build is designed to be indexed by Google. This includes semantic HTML structure, optimized load times, meta tags for every page, an XML sitemap, and server-side rendered content (SSR) so Google can read all pages. Being indexed and ranking well are two different things: ranking also depends on content quality, keyword competition, and time. For more advanced results, I offer dedicated SEO packages.
