Solution · Websites
I design and build custom websites for entrepreneurs and businesses. A website that makes clear what you do within seconds, builds trust and gives visitors a logical next step, such as a request, an appointment or a phone call. I work from Emmen in the Netherlands, for businesses nearby and further afield.
A custom website is for businesses that want to be taken seriously online and expect more from their website than a digital business card.
You're starting your business and want a professional, trustworthy presence from day one.
Your current website no longer reflects your business or brings in too few enquiries.
Clients choose you on trust. Your website needs to show who you are and how you work.
Your website is slow, works poorly on mobile or is hard to update.
Many websites look fine but don't do their job. These are the problems I come across most often, and how I approach them.
Visitors don't understand quickly enough what you do.
A clear message at the top of the page and a logical structure per service.
The website brings in few enquiries.
Clear next steps and a simple contact or request form.
The site is slow or works poorly on mobile.
A lightweight technical foundation, optimised images and a mobile-first design.
You're hard to find on Google.
A clean structure, good titles and descriptions, fast pages and content that answers your clients' questions.
Every website starts with your goal and your clients. Depending on what you need, I can build:
A complete website with your services, approach, about page and contact options.
One focused page for a service, campaign or launch, with one clear action.
For example Dutch and English, with properly translated pages that are also easy to find.
Forms with clear fields, error messages and a confirmation for your visitor.
Titles, meta descriptions, sitemap, structured data and a logical page structure.
Rebuilding your current website while keeping what works, including redirects from old addresses.

Not a demo, but a real website that is live for a client.
Frank Meichsner · one-man hair salon in Emmen (NL)
A bold website for Frank Meichsner's one-man hair salon in Emmen. As distinctive as the salon itself: strong typography, playful collage elements and a clear path to booking an appointment.
Process
You always know where we are and what comes next.
You briefly tell me what you're looking for. We discuss your business, your clients and what the website should achieve.
You receive a proposal with what I'll build, the timeline and the cost. I only start once you agree.
I create the design first and process your feedback. Then I build the website and we complete the content.
We review everything together on desktop and mobile. Then I launch the website and explain how it all works.
It depends on the scope: a landing page is different from a multilingual business website. After an introduction you'll receive a proposal with a clear price, so you know where you stand upfront.
A compact website can often be ready within a few days to a few weeks. The timeline mainly depends on the scope and on how quickly texts and images are available. The proposal includes a concrete timeline.
Ideally you provide the content about your business, since you know your clients best. I help with the structure and with sharpening the copy so everything is clear and convincing.
We agree on that upfront. Some businesses want to edit texts and images themselves, others prefer to leave it to me. I set up the technical side accordingly.
I build the website with a good technical foundation for search engines: fast pages, a logical structure and good titles and descriptions. Nobody can guarantee a ranking; it also depends on competition and content.
I can. We'll discuss which hosting fits and whether you want maintenance, so your website stays secure and up to date.
No. I work from Emmen in Drenthe, the Netherlands, for businesses in the region, across the country and abroad. Contact and collaboration happen online.
A portal or tool that fits the way you work.
Connect your systems and reduce manual work.
