Taking on new WordPress buildsWordPress developer for Denmark
A senior WordPress developer for Danish businesses
You run a business, a webshop, or a professional-services firm in Denmark and need custom WordPress work done properly: a new theme, a missing feature, or a faster site, not another vague monthly agency retainer. I build and extend WordPress sites for Danish clients, write the code myself, and hand over something you can actually maintain in house.
A good fit for Danish SMEs, WooCommerce shops, consultancies, and professional-services firms in Copenhagen, Aarhus, and beyond who want a reliable senior developer for ongoing custom work, not an agency retainer or a one-off emergency fix.
Common WordPress problems for Danish sites
You inherited a half-finished WordPress build
Many Danish businesses got a site that technically works but was never finished properly: missing features, no documentation, and a developer who is long gone. I pick up the code as it stands and take it the rest of the way.
A local agency keeps you on a slow ticket queue
Small changes take weeks because you are one of many clients on a retainer, billed at high Copenhagen day rates. I work directly with you, quote the change up front, and deliver it without a ticketing system in between.
The webshop cannot handle Danish payments cleanly
MobilePay and Dankort at checkout, gateways like Reepay, Nets, or Quickpay, and 25% moms handled correctly on invoices. I build the WooCommerce setup around how Danish customers actually pay, not a generic template.
GDPR and cookie consent are handled sloppily
A cookie banner that does not actually block scripts, or consent logic bolted on as an afterthought. I implement consent and data handling correctly for EU visitors and to the standard Datatilsynet expects, not just cosmetically.
The .dk site is slow or fails Core Web Vitals
Hosting, theme bloat, or unoptimized images cost you Google rankings and visitors. I profile the actual bottleneck and fix it rather than adding another caching plugin on top.
You have no dependable developer relationship
Every change means finding someone new and re-explaining the site from scratch. I aim to be the one developer who already knows your codebase and communicates directly, the way Danish teams prefer.
What working with me includes
Custom theme and plugin development
Bespoke WordPress themes, custom post types, and plugins built for your business, not a page builder trying to do everything.
Feature work on existing sites
Booking systems, membership content, multilingual setups, and integrations added to a site you already have, without a full rebuild.
WooCommerce tuned for the Danish market
MobilePay and Dankort at checkout, Danish gateways like Reepay, Nets, and Quickpay, and correct 25% moms handling for compliant invoicing.
GDPR and cookie compliance done properly
Consent management and data handling that hold up to a real EU visitor and to Datatilsynet, not just a banner for show.
Clear documentation and handover
A written record of what was built and how to run it, so you are never stuck waiting on one person for a small update.
How a project runs
You get a scoped, fixed-price quote before work starts and a working developer relationship afterward, not a black box you have to chase for updates.
Discovery call
We talk through what your site needs to do, what exists already, and where the current setup falls short. Direct and to the point.
Scope and quote
You get a clear proposal covering what will be built, the timeline, and the fixed price before any code is written.
Build and review
Work happens on staging with regular check-ins, so you see progress and can flag changes early rather than at the end.
Launch and ongoing care
The feature or site goes live with documentation. Most clients keep me on for a care plan or future feature work.
WordPress development pricing
Starting points for WordPress development in Denmark
Small changes and fixes
from €900
one-off
A defined change or small feature added to your existing WordPress site: a form, a layout fix, a plugin conflict.
- Scoped and quoted before work starts
- Tested on staging, then released
- Short handover notes included
Custom WordPress build
from €3,500
per project
A new theme or a substantial feature set built around how your business actually works.
- Custom theme or major feature build
- GDPR and cookie compliance included
- Documentation and handover included
Complex or WooCommerce build
from €7,500
per project
Multilingual, multisite, or heavily integrated projects: WooCommerce shops, membership platforms, custom dashboards.
- Architecture planned before implementation
- MobilePay, Dankort, and Danish gateway integration
- Staged rollout with a rollback plan
Care plan
from €250
per month
Ongoing development and maintenance once your site is built: updates, small features, monitoring.
- Priority access for new feature requests
- Managed updates and monitoring
- Cancel anytime
All prices are starting points in EUR (roughly 7.46 DKK per EUR) and depend on scope. I run a small studio remotely from Spain, which shares the same timezone as Denmark (CET/CEST), so we have a full working-day overlap. A fixed-scope remote studio also sidesteps the cost of a Danish hire under flexicurity norms. Other currencies quoted on request.

Frequently asked questions
You are based in Spain. Does that work for a Danish business?
Yes, and the timezone works in your favour. I run a small studio remotely from Spain, which is in the same timezone as Denmark (CET/CEST), so we share a full working day with no time gap at all. WordPress development happens through Git, staging, and video calls, so there is no practical difference from hiring locally, and you get the same senior engineer either way.
How does your pricing compare to a Copenhagen agency retainer?
A retainer often bills for account management and a ticket queue on top of the actual development time, at high Danish day rates. I quote the work itself, at a fixed price, and do the coding personally, so you are paying for the build, not agency overhead. Some projects come out cheaper, some more, depending on scope.
Why not just hire a Danish developer in house?
For steady, full-time work that can make sense. But a permanent Danish hire under flexicurity norms means a high salary, a 37-hour week, five to six weeks of holiday, and feriepenge on top. For project-based or occasional work, a fixed-scope remote studio gives you senior output without carrying a full-time cost.
Can you handle MobilePay, Dankort, and Danish payment gateways?
Yes. I set up WooCommerce with MobilePay and Dankort at checkout, integrate gateways like Reepay, Nets, and Quickpay, and make sure 25% moms is applied and invoiced correctly for the Danish market.
Can you handle GDPR and cookie consent for Danish visitors properly?
Yes. Consent management and data handling are built into the site rather than added as a cosmetic banner, to the standard Datatilsynet and wider EU rules expect, not just a banner for show.
Is this a one-off build or an ongoing relationship?
Either works. Some clients need one project delivered and handed over. Most stay on a monthly care plan afterward so there is one developer who already knows the codebase for the next feature or change. Danish clients tend to value that kind of steady, trust-based relationship.
