About Minn Apps

Wordpress vs Static Website
Our Story

A Better Way to Build Websites for Minneapolis Small Businesses

We started Minn Apps because we saw too many Minneapolis small businesses getting burned by the traditional web design model: pay thousands upfront for a WordPress site, then watch it slow down, break, and become a security liability within a year.

Our founder is a product leader with 20+ years of experience building digital products and websites for companies of all sizes. We brought that same product-thinking approach to small business web design — focusing on performance, simplicity, and long-term value over flashy features that nobody uses.

Every site we build is hand-coded from scratch. No WordPress, no page builders, no bloated themes. Just clean, fast, accessible code that works for your business and your customers. Our sites consistently score 95–100 on Google PageSpeed and load in under 1 second.

We serve small businesses throughout the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro area, including Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Plymouth, Maple Grove, Woodbury, Eagan, and beyond. Our fully async process means we can work with you no matter where you're located in Minnesota. Get in touch to see how we can help your business grow online.

The Hidden Bloat

1,000,000+ Lines of Code vs. Under 2,000

A typical WordPress small business site — including core, theme, and plugins — contains over one million lines of code. Our hand-coded static sites deliver the same result in under 2,000 lines. Less code means faster load times, fewer vulnerabilities, and nothing to break.

WordPress core alone is 877,000+ lines of code (WPShout). Add a theme and plugins and it easily exceeds 1 million. Read the full breakdown.

What We Believe

Our Values

  • No Surprise Bills

    Most agencies quote low then nickel-and-dime you for hosting, updates, and edits. We charge one flat monthly price. No surprises.

  • You Own Everything

    Too many agencies hold your domain and files hostage. If you cancel, we hand over your full site — code, images, everything. No exit fees.

  • Fast, Real Support

    Need a change? Email us and it's done within a business day. No ticketing systems, no waiting weeks for a callback, no being passed between account managers.

  • Nothing to Break

    No plugins to update, no database to crash, no WordPress patches. Static sites have zero moving parts — they just work.
