I decided to review the design of my website and also wanted to move away from WordPress. I really liked the idea of a statically generated website because they are fast, secure, easy to maintain, and offer a great developer experience. I searched for companies that could help me migrate my website from WordPress to Hugo and found Zeon Studio. In the first discovery meeting, they provided design ideas with some mock-up pages. They were so proactive, and the new design looked so good that I didn't hesitate to hire them. Just a few weeks later, I had the first version of the new website. They were fast and responsive to my feedback. In the end, they did a fantastic job. I really enjoyed working with them. If you're looking for a company to design and develop your website, I highly recommend Zeon Studio.
