Web design & development

Web design from Trier: a website that works for you.

Good looks are quickly forgotten – I build you a presence that earns trust and turns visitors into enquiries. Cleanly built, fast to load, in whatever technology fits your project. Concept, design and technical build all come from one desk.

smugo is your web design agency in Trier: professional websites for SMEs and trades in Trier, Luxembourg and the Greater Region – from a simple business-card site through a relaunch to online shops and custom web applications. Fast, accessible, search-engine-friendly and designed to generate enquiries, at a fixed price. One point of contact from the first sketch to going live.

What's in it for you

Enquiries, not just clicks

Your site is built around one goal: getting people to contact you. A clear structure and clear paths to a call or a message, so visitors turn into customers.

Fast on every device

Load times under two seconds, perfect on mobile. Your customers love it – and Google rewards it with better rankings. I measure performance before and after launch and show you the figures.

No off-the-shelf sameness

I build to fit your business – in any programming language and technology. Layout, typefaces and imagery follow your brand, not whatever a bought template allows.

You stay in control

Change content without being a developer – and I stay by your side as a dedicated point of contact. On request I also take on hosting, regular updates and upkeep.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What clients often want to know about this topic.

What does a website with smugo cost?

It depends on the scope – a compact site for a trades business is something different from an extensive presence with a booking function or an online shop. You get a fixed price before any work starts; nothing is billed by the hour, and what the quote says is what you pay. Send me a quick message about what you need and what budget you have in mind, and you'll get an honest assessment.

How long until my site is online?

A manageable website is often ready in two to four weeks. What matters most is how quickly content and feedback come from you – I deliberately keep the process lean.

Can I edit content myself later?

Yes. On request, we build the site so you can adjust text and images yourself without technical knowledge. Alternatively, I'll take care of the upkeep for you.

Which technology do you build in?

Whatever fits your project – from lean, fast standard solutions to custom-built applications. I'm not tied to any one website builder.

Do you also take on existing websites?

Yes, I also revise and modernise existing sites – whether that's a redesign, faster load times or a clean technical foundation.

What does a web design agency actually do?

It translates what you offer into a website people understand and search engines can read: concept and structure, layout and visual design, integrating copy and images, the technical build, the launch and the upkeep afterwards. With me, optimisation for Google is part of it from the start.

Does my website have to be accessible?

Since June 2025 the German Accessibility Strengthening Act has required accessible websites for many consumer-facing offerings, such as online shops and booking flows. Micro-enterprises with fewer than ten staff and no more than two million euros in annual turnover are exempt for services. Whether that applies to you is something we clarify up front. Either way I build sites so that contrast, keyboard operation and labelling work – which also helps people find you. It does not replace legal advice.

How does a relaunch work and what happens to my rankings?

First I look at which pages currently get found on Google and for which search terms. Those contents and addresses come along; the rest is rethought. During the move I set up redirects from old to new, then watch the development for a few weeks. That carries your visibility across the switch.

Who looks after the domain, hosting and updates?

I do, if you want: domain, hosting, regular updates and backups then run through me for a fixed monthly fee. If you would rather keep that in your own hands, you get all the access credentials and can switch at any time. Either way the website belongs to you.

Will my new website be found on Google?

The technical basis is always included: a clean structure, fast load times, sensible titles and copy that names your service and your town. Competing for contested search terms takes ongoing work after that – which I can carry on as your SEO agency if you want.

Shall we talk about Web design & development?

Drop me a quick message about what you need – I'll get back to you personally and tell you honestly what makes sense. No call centre, no sales team, just me, Tolga Güneysel.
