Question 1

What exactly do you do?

Accepted Answer

We develop programmed websites and modular web apps – custom, performant and without template systems.

Question 2

Do I really own the system?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Code, data and hosting belong to you completely. No subscriptions, no platform lock-in.

Question 3

Can I manage content myself?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Content like texts, projects, jobs or pages can be managed via your own CMS – without changing the design.

Question 4

What happens after launch?

Accepted Answer

The first three months of support are included. After that, maintenance follows a workshop principle — regular checks, free diagnosis, repairs only against a fixed-price quote, no subscription. Your system stays yours throughout.

Question 5

Who is your solution suitable for?

Accepted Answer

For companies that think long-term and want a digital system – not just a pretty website.

Question 6

What distinguishes you from traditional agencies?

Accepted Answer

We don't build templates, but systems. Architecture, performance and extensibility are the focus – not quick surfaces.

Question 7

Do I need my own server and domain?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your system runs on your own server — that's exactly what „it's yours" means. We handle the setup, configuration and launch. The running cost goes directly to the hosting and domain provider, not to us.

Question 8

What does running it cost me on an ongoing basis?

Accepted Answer

A server (e.g. Hetzner) runs about €17–28 a month, the domain around €5–9 — together roughly €22–37 monthly. You pay these directly to the host and registrar. You pay us nothing for it — no subscription, no monthly rent.

Question 9

Why no monthly package like the website builders?

Accepted Answer

Because there you pay rent for access to your own presence — stop paying and it's gone. With us you pay once for the build. After that the code, the data and full hosting control are yours, with no leash from us.

Question 10

What happens after launch?

Accepted Answer

The first three months of support are included — fine-tuning, security updates and smaller adjustments. After that, maintenance follows a workshop principle: regular checks, free diagnosis, repairs only against a fixed-price quote. No subscription.

Question 11

Who takes care of security and updates?

Accepted Answer

We check your system at regular intervals — free of charge, like an oil-change inspection. If the check finds something, you get a notification. Then you decide freely: fix it yourself, hire us at a fixed price, or bring in someone else. No obligation, no ongoing contract.

Question 12

What does maintenance cost?

Accepted Answer

Diagnosis is always free. Only if something genuinely needs doing do you get a fixed price up front — a flat sum you can accept or not. There's no ongoing maintenance contract and no hourly meter.

Question 13

What's included in the first three months?

Accepted Answer

Bug fixes on what was delivered, security and update care, fine-tuning plus small text and content corrections, along with monitoring and backups. New features or extra pages are separate projects, not maintenance.

Question 14

What if I want to run everything myself?

Accepted Answer

You can, any time — it's yours. You get the access, the handover and the complete system. The free check stays available as an option; you don't have to use it. You're tied to nothing.

Question 15

Can I manage content myself?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You manage texts, projects, pages and more through your own CMS — without touching the design or the code.

Question 16

Custom code instead of a builder — what do I concretely gain?

Accepted Answer

Faster load times, more security, no plugin dependencies and unlimited extensibility. No theme ballast slowing you down — and nobody knows your build better than you do.

Question 17

Can you extend the system later?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it's built modularly. New modules, pages or a whole web app dock on when you need them — as a separate project, never as an obligation.

Question 18

What's the difference between a website and a web app?

Accepted Answer

A website presents — a web app works: bookings, customer areas, your own processes, dashboards. We build both and connect them into one system.

Question 19

Do you work remotely too?

Accepted Answer

Yes, entirely location-independent — wherever you are. The collaboration runs fully digitally.

Question 20

How does a project run?

Accepted Answer

Initial call, offer, build in stages with checkpoints, launch, three months of support. And: you speak directly with the person who builds — no account-manager carousel.

Question 21

Who is this for?

Accepted Answer

For companies that think long-term and want a digital system — not just a pretty website.

Question 22

How long does a project take?

Accepted Answer

Depending on scope: a focused website a few weeks, a complete system correspondingly longer. You get the concrete timeline in the initial call.

Question 23

Do I get local visibility with this?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Dedicated location pages rank for local searches in your city and lead customers to you — with clean technology instead of template mass.

Question 24

Why not the local WordPress agency?

Accepted Answer

Because there you get the twentieth identical template site in your city — monthly rent included. Your own system sets you apart technically and visibly.

Question 25

Is the site fast and good for Google?

Accepted Answer

Custom code is performant from the ground up: fast load times, clean markup and structured data. That's the technical foundation good ranking stands on in the first place.
