Corporate website and ecommerce
Multilingual sites with technical SEO done from the start, and analytics that only switches on if the visitor says yes. Next.js and our own code: no bought templates and no builders you cannot touch afterwards.
- Who it is for
- Companies whose current site cannot be edited without calling somebody, does not show up for what they actually do, or loads slowly on an ordinary phone.
- Deliverable
- Deployed site · measured · editable by you with no licences
What it includes
- Design and development from scratch, with no bought template: light and dark theme, and every piece of text in language files so translating is not rebuilding.
- Technical SEO as standard: one canonical per page, reciprocal hreflang, a sitemap generated from the code itself, and structured data checked in the browser.
- Speed measured with the metrics Google uses, on mobile and against the deployed site, which is where the real numbers show up.
- Analytics with real consent: nothing third-party loads before the visitor decides, and the preferences panel can be reopened from the footer.
- A shop when it is called for: catalogue, orders and Stripe payment landing straight in your account, not passing through ours and with no commission of ours.
Where it gets hard
A banner that loads analytics before you click anything complies with nothing, and it is the most common setup there is. Google's consent mode removes the cookies, but the requests still go out, and that shows only in the browser's network tab. It gets checked three times: undecided, denied and accepted.
It can be served perfectly in the HTML and not exist in the page Google indexes, because the framework discards it on load. A raw download sees it, the browser does not, and nothing fails anywhere. Either it is checked in a browser, or it has not been checked.
The site that flies on your machine over fibre takes three seconds on an ordinary phone, and that is the number Google looks at. Fonts and images are almost always the cause, and they get fixed before publishing, not when somebody notices.
The proof
This very site: two languages, light and dark theme, structured data checked in the browser, and analytics that does not send a single request until you accept it. TalkToCart is the shop half, with Stripe Connect payments landing in the business's own account.

How we work
Half an hour of conversation, a closed proposal with scope, price and date, a deployed increment every two weeks in an environment you can log into, and handover. The four steps are on the home page.
Frequently asked questions
- Will I be able to edit the text myself?
- Yes. Content lives in language files and in Markdown articles, not scattered through the code, and it is explained at handover. If you would rather have a CMS with a screen we can build one, but it is decided before we start because it changes the budget.
- What if I already have a site and just want it improved?
- That works, and sometimes it is the sensible option. We start by measuring what is there (speed, indexing, consent) and tell you what can be fixed on top and what is not worth keeping alive.
- Do you build shops on Shopify or WooCommerce?
- If your case fits a standard platform, we will tell you to use it: it is cheaper and you do not need us. Ours makes sense when the catalogue, the order flow or the link to your system will not fit there.
