Hugo Websites
Not every website needs a database and a CMS. I build company presentations, landing pages and product sites in Hugo – as static pages that load fast, cost next to nothing to run and leave nothing to hack. This site runs on Hugo too.
What I do for you
- A new Hugo site – from content structure to deployment
- Theme integration – I turn a supplied design or a ready-made theme into a working Hugo site
- Migration to Hugo – moving a site from WordPress, Drupal or another CMS, including redirects for the old URLs
- Multilingual sites – language versions with their own URLs and correct hreflang links
- On-page SEO – meta tags, structured data, sitemap and redirects
- CI/CD deployment – every change in Git is built, checked and deployed on its own
When Hugo and when Drupal
| Criterion | Hugo | Drupal |
|---|---|---|
| Project type | Presentations, landing pages, blogs, documentation | Company portals, knowledge bases, sites with user accounts |
| Content management | Markdown in Git, simple editing | Structured content, workflow, roles and permissions |
| Performance | Static files, excellent Core Web Vitals | Scales with caching and infrastructure |
| Security | Minimal attack surface, no database | Regular security updates |
| Running costs | Low – build and deploy | Higher – core and module updates |
Need structured content, an editorial workflow or a connection to your business systems? Then Drupal is the right choice. The two are often combined: a company site in Drupal and documentation or a microsite in Hugo.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to build a Hugo site?
A simple site or landing page can go live within a few days; a larger multilingual site within a few weeks.
How does long-term Hugo maintenance work?
Changes go through Git and CI/CD. There is no database and no CMS server patching – a merge and an automatic deploy are enough.
