Website for Your Gym or Fitness Studio in Suceava
Suceava sits close to the Ukrainian border, and you can feel it in the city's gyms. Since the war began, the people looking for a place to train include families who came across the border and stayed: their children go to school here, and they are trying to get back to an ordinary routine. Many of them read Romanian through their phone's automatic translation and rarely call to ask anything.
Alongside them are lifelong locals, people from the small Bukovina towns nearby and people back after years abroad. Each reads your page differently, but all of them read it before they come. For many, the first encounter with your gym is a page read in silence, sometimes in a language other than the one you wrote it in. At MPO Web Studio we build gym and studio websites that stay clear even after they pass through translation.

Your gym's page, read through phone translation
A mother who came from Ukraine, with her kids now in school in Suceava, looks for a Pilates or yoga class for the hours she is on her own. She opens your page, taps “translate” and reads whatever survived. If the membership shows up as “full 12 ent.”, if the prices sit in a photo of the poster at reception, or if the page only says “details in DM”, the translation gets nothing out of them. And a phone call in Romanian is exactly the step she keeps putting off. She doesn't give up because your gym wouldn't suit her, but because she couldn't find out on her own what she gets and what she pays. On the other hand, every person like her who signs up brings along a friend, a neighbour, a classmate from the Romanian course: in a small circle of people, a gym where you managed on your own gets recommended fast.
What survives translation intact and what gets lost on the way
Automatic translation handles short sentences and numbers well, but trips over abbreviations, wordplay and anything placed inside an image. “Monthly membership, equipment access every day, valid for 30 days” arrives correctly in any language; “full pass + bonus” arrives as a riddle. Opening hours written as 06:00–22:00 can't be misread, while “open from early morning” could mean six or nine. A price typed as text gets translated, enlarged on any screen and found in search; the same price photographed off the noticeboard stays a picture nobody can read in another language. And class names need half a sentence of explanation — what you work on, who it's for, how long it lasts — because “HIIT” or “TRX” mean nothing to someone who has never been to one.
Your memberships reach people before they reach your door
On the mockup we prepare for free, right after your gym's name comes the membership table: each option with its price, its length and what it includes, written as text rather than pasted in as an image. Someone coming for the first time already knows what they'll pay at reception, so the first visit becomes a sign-up, not a negotiation. You send us your price list as it is — a photo of the noticeboard will do — and you see it laid out in your own gym's website, not in a template; what a gym built by us looks like, you can see beforehand at /demo/fitness. You can also run the test your clients run: open the mockup on your phone, translate it into Ukrainian or English and check that the prices stay clear. Our side is just as clear: we start from €290, deliver within days, and one round of revisions plus 7 days of warranty after launch are included. We work from Cluj-Napoca and talk on WhatsApp.
Frequently asked questions
Many people read my posts through phone translation and still don't get what's included. What should I do differently on the website?+
Write one idea per line and name things in full: “equipment access”, “one class per week”, “valid for one month”. Drop abbreviations and half-used English words, and give opening hours in figures, in 24-hour format. On your mockup we check together how the translated pages look and, before launch, rewrite anything that comes out crooked.
Some new members don't have a Romanian bank card yet and pay in cash. What should I write on the site about payment so they don't get stuck at reception?+
You write clearly, as text, how people can pay at your gym: cash, card, bank transfer, in lei — only what you actually accept. If you also take cards issued abroad, say so; if you don't, say that just as simply. For someone reading through translation, a line like “Payment: cash or card, at reception” comes through whole in any language and spares them a question they would never ask. And if the membership can be paid in two instalments, put that next to the price too.
I've received a few reviews written in Ukrainian. Do I put them on the website as they are or translate them?+
Keep them in the original, with a short translation underneath, marked as a translation. The original shows the review is genuine and tells the next newcomer from across the border that someone like them felt at home with you. Ask the author's permission and show only their first name, with no other personal details.
Mothers from my morning class ask whether they can bring their toddler. How do I show on the website what's allowed and what isn't?+
State the rule once, simply, next to the class timetable: from what age children may come in, whether there's a corner where they can wait and who looks after them. If you don't have that, say so plainly. A mother who knows in advance plans her morning and comes; one who finds out at the door rarely comes back.
