What we do for you
From the first idea to next year's updates. You can outsource everything, or just the part you never get around to.
Almost all our work runs on WordPress. Why that is, and what is true about the stories on security, is explained under our services.
Consultancy and troubleshooting
Someone who understands both the technology and the people. Often an hour of looking along is enough to move forward.
Read moreGraphic design
Visuals that fit: a logo, an advert, a banner or a whole brand identity. Also without a website.
Read moreBuilding websites
A new site, a webshop or a campaign site. From first sketch to live.
Read moreMoving and renewing
A site that lags behind, is slow, or is stuck with a previous builder.
Read moreHosting and domain names
Servers in the Netherlands, email that arrives and backups you will hopefully never need.
Read moreMaintenance and support
Updates, security and one person you can simply call.
Read moreFindable and measurable
Getting found in Google and in AI answers, and seeing what it brings in.
Read moreHow it works with us
- We listen first. What do visitors need to find, and what actually brings you work? That is where the design starts.
- One price up front. A quote that breaks down the cost per item. If something changes along the way, you hear about it before it costs money.
- One contact. From the first conversation to long after launch you speak to the same person. No handovers, no ticket number.
- And we stay involved. Updates, backups and security keep running. You hear from us when something needs attention.
What people often ask
How long before my site is live?
A small site is often live within a couple of weeks; a larger one usually takes four to six weeks. The biggest delay is almost always the same thing: getting the text and photos in.
Do you have a hard deadline, like a trade fair or an opening? Say so straight away and we will work towards it.
Can you just take a look with me?
Yes, and it is often the smartest place to start. You put your question or problem to us, we spend an hour looking at it, and afterwards you know where you stand: what is going on, what your options are and what we would do.
That works for sites built by someone else too. Is it urgent, for instance a webshop that has stopped taking orders? Then simply call.
Can I update the site myself afterwards?
Yes. Your site runs on WordPress and you get a walkthrough when it goes live, using your own pages. If you can use a word processor, you can keep your website up to date.
Rather not? Then we do it, with a bundle of hours for text, photos and small changes.
Which system do you use?
Usually WordPress: it runs more than forty per cent of all websites, with specialists and extensions for almost anything. You are not locked in, because your content remains yours.
Is your site running on something else, for example a system from a previous builder? Then we look at whether we maintain it or are better off moving it.
Can my current site move across?
Yes. We collect your site, domain name and email from your current provider, even if contact with them is difficult. We redirect your old addresses to the new pages, so your position in Google moves with you.
What about security and backups?
Your site gets updates, security that blocks suspicious traffic and a backup every day. If something does go wrong, we restore an earlier version.
That last part matters: anything can break once. The difference is how quickly you are back online.
Does my website have to be accessible?
For governments and many semi-public organisations this has applied for some time. Since 2025 European accessibility rules also apply to part of the commercial services, such as webshops, banking and travel tickets.
Rules aside: an accessible site is a better site. Good contrast, clear headings and keyboard operation help everyone, and Google reads such a site more easily too.
Do you build webshops too?
Yes, for start-ups and small businesses. With payments, shipping costs, stock and links to your bookkeeping or courier.
If you sell thousands of items a week, a specialised platform makes more sense. We will simply tell you so.
A site that lags behind? Or no site at all?
Tell us briefly what you need and when it has to be ready. You get a quick answer and honest advice, even when that means "you do not need this".
