Website design in Amsterdam, without agency overhead

In Amsterdam you compete online with brands that have full teams and big budgets. I build bespoke websites for businesses that want to stand out among them: sharply designed, fast and built to turn visitors into enquiries.

Who in Amsterdam is this for?

Amsterdam is full of creative agencies, startups, shops, restaurants and independent professionals. Your customers are used to well-designed websites and leave faster when something looks dated or loads slowly.

I work for business owners who want a site as good as their product, without the budget and lead time of a large agency. You talk directly to the person who designs and builds it.

For Made2Reach, an online marketing agency, I built the website and branding, with a marketing scan as the entry point. For Evoscento, a luxury brand website. Brand-led sites like these suit the Amsterdam market well.

Building a brand among the big names

Anyone searching in Amsterdam sees your site next to those of large chains and established brands. You don't win with more pages, but with a sharper promise, a recognisable look and a site that works as well on mobile as on a big screen.

So I start with your positioning: what makes you different, and how do you show that in the first seconds? Only then do I choose typography, colour and imagery. That way your site feels like a brand, not a template.

Local search in Amsterdam

People in Amsterdam often search by district or neighbourhood: De Pijp, Jordaan, Oud-West, Zuid, Noord or Oost. Are you tied to a place, such as a shop, studio or practice? Then I make sure Google knows exactly where you are and which area you serve.

If you work for clients nationwide, I set up the site around your services rather than a place name. We also take your Google Business Profile and reviews into account.

Why not a large agency?

  • One point of contact. No account manager between you and the maker.
  • See it first. You get a free design of your homepage before you decide anything.
  • Quick turnaround. Changes don't go through a ticket system.
  • Fixed price upfront. After the design you know exactly what it costs.

What a project includes

  • Bespoke design for desktop and mobile, in your own brand style.
  • Fast, clean code without heavy page builders.
  • Local SEO with pages and structured data for your service area in Amsterdam.
  • Conversion tracking on your form, so you see what the site delivers.
  • GDPR in order with an honest cookie banner and a secure contact form.
  • Ongoing care through hosting and maintenance if you want it.

Frequently asked questions

What does a website in Amsterdam cost?

That depends on your requirements and the number of pages. After the free design you get a fixed quote with no surprises afterwards.

Do I need to be based in Amsterdam to work with you?

No. I work for businesses across the Netherlands. We meet online or on location, whichever suits you.

Can you renew my current site without losing my Google rankings?

Yes. With a redesign I keep your existing URLs or set up clean redirects, so the visibility you've built up stays intact.

Do you also build webshops for Amsterdam brands?

Yes. Read more under webshop development. I work with Shopify and WordPress.

Do you also work in Amstelveen, Haarlem or Zaandam?

Yes. I work across the whole region and beyond.

Curious what your new website could look like?

I design your homepage for free, in your brand style. If you like it, you get a fixed quote with no surprises afterwards. If you don't, you're not tied to anything.
