Our methods and strategies for responsive web design
How we develop lightning-fast and customer-focused websites
-
Content management systems
Our approach is always pragmatic; we choose the right system based on the specific use case and the available budget. As developers, we do not favor any particular content management system (CMS). The systems we use regularly include WordPress, Drupal, Typo3 and Joomla. For websites that want to display a variety of products without needing a sales function, we often rely on an e-commerce system such as Shopware, removing the sales options.
-
Desktop, tablet & mobile
Responsiveness and conversion optimization are in no way inferior to the technical basis of a website. Responsive web design ensures that websites automatically adapt to the best possible view on all end devices - from desktop PCs and laptops to tablets and smartphones. This ensures that neither the design nor the performance on the customer side suffers any losses.
-
No templates but templating
Our guiding principle is: no prefabricated templates, but customized templating. We prefer standardized frameworks as a basis and use them to develop a template tailored specifically to your company. We are experienced in working with templating engines on a variety of platforms and frameworks. Our regular tools include Bootstrap, Twig and Smarty.
-
Aesthetics & Design
At the start of the project, our design team gathers information from you about your ideas and wishes for the new website. We make suggestions, conduct a competitive analysis and create a detailed action plan before moving on to the next phase. In this phase, we design an innovative structure, sitemap and layout of your new website to ensure that everyone involved has a clear vision of the final product. First, we present the layout and home page elements to you for review and approval. Once the layout is complete, we begin the actual development while finalizing the home page and working out the designs of the subpages.

What is web design?
A short FAQ about web design
-
What is good web design?
Effective web design combines several elements that work together to improve user interaction and achieve the goals of a website. It encompasses both the visual design and the technical implementation of websites, with the aim of making them both aesthetically pleasing and user-friendly. Numerous steps are crucial in web design. Initially, comprehensive planning is essential, which requires a deep understanding of the goals and needs of the website and lays a robust foundation. This includes developing the structure, guiding users and structuring the content. A central point is the visual component, which directly affects the design. This includes the choice of colors, layout, images and other design elements to create a welcoming environment and leave a positive impression. Not to be forgotten is the importance of typography, where the choice and arrangement of fonts ensures optimal readability and a pleasant reading experience on different devices and screen sizes. Details such as font size, line height and the use of bold or italics need to be carefully considered. User-friendliness is also a key element of a successful web design. Intuitive navigation and a fast loading time, together with a responsive design for various devices, are crucial for an excellent user experience.
-
What exactly does a web designer do?
A web designer is characterized by the responsibility for the visual concept and aesthetic presentation of a website. The primary goal is to create a visually appealing design that improves the user experience on different devices. Their tasks include the development of an aesthetic framework for the website, including the selection of color schemes, layouts, typography and imagery to create a coherent visual image. They take into account the target audience and the purpose of the website to create a suitable design. A web designer is also responsible for ensuring that the website is responsive and functional on a variety of devices such as desktops, tablets and smartphones, which includes customizing the layout and navigation for a smooth user experience across different screen sizes. Although in-depth coding knowledge is not usually a primary responsibility of a web designer, a basic knowledge of HTML, CSS and possibly JavaScript is desirable in order to effectively convert the design into code and collaborate with web developers for precise implementation of the design.
-
How does search engine optimization apply to web design?
Search engine optimization (SEO) in web design involves implementing specific guidelines to make websites more attractive to search engines like Google. Effective web design integrates these SEO principles to maximize the visibility of the website. This includes the targeted use of keywords that make the content search engine friendly. Technical improvements such as a high loading speed and a responsive layout help to improve the performance of the website. In addition, the structure and navigation of the website is optimized so that it can be searched and indexed more easily by search engines. Precisely defined metadata, including meta descriptions and meta tags, are fine-tuned to optimize the presentation in search results. Good web design also takes usability into account to create a positive experience for both users and search engines. In short, SEO in web design aims to design websites according to the requirements of search engines in order to achieve a strong and optimized online presence.
-
Which programming languages are used for web design?
Various programming languages are used in the field of web design to create websites that are both functional and user-oriented. The most commonly used languages include:
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language): The skeleton of a website that defines its structure and content.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets): Responsible for the visual design of a website, including layout, colors, fonts and other design elements.
JavaScript: Enables the implementation of interactive and dynamic aspects on a website, such as animations, form validations and user interactions.
PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor): A server-side scripting language used to generate dynamic website content and manage databases in web applications.
Python: A versatile language that is also used in web design for complex backend operations and the development of web applications.
Ruby: A scripting language often used for web design and development, especially in conjunction with the Ruby on Rails framework, which provides a productive development environment.
Java: Often used for the development of server-side applications and complex web applications, known for its extensive features and use in large enterprise environments.
In summary, various programming languages play a crucial role in designing web presences, creating user-friendly interfaces and developing sophisticated web applications, with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, Python, Ruby and Java among the core languages. The choice of language depends on the specific needs of the project and the preferences of the developer. -
How can web design be optimized for fast loading times?
To optimize web design for faster loading times, various strategies can be used that are specifically aimed at improving web performance. The following measures are effective:
Image optimization: large image files are often responsible for delays. By compressing and using image formats that are optimized for the web, file sizes can be reduced, which shortens the loading time. It is also advisable to provide images in the sizes that are actually required.
Reduction of HTTP requests: Many requests put a strain on the server and slow down the website. A reduction can be achieved by merging CSS and JavaScript files, using CSS sprites and limiting them to necessary external scripts.
Use caching: Caching makes it possible to temporarily store certain resources such as CSS files, JavaScript and images in the user's browser. This reduces the need to reload all data each time a page is called up, which increases speed.
Code optimization: Efficient programming and tidying up the code help to improve performance. This includes removing unnecessary code, minifying CSS and JavaScript files and using effective programming practices.
Use of content delivery networks (CDNs): CDNs distribute content to multiple servers around the world, allowing content to be delivered faster as it is loaded from a location close to the user.
Responsive design: A responsive design ensures that the website is displayed optimally on all devices. Media queries and flexible layouts help to load only the necessary resources for the respective device, which improves loading times.
