Websites and apps, designed and built in Athens

I build it. The website, the app, or both. I'm Yannis: I design them, write them, code them and put them online myself, for businesses and people all over Greece.

The thing you keep describing at parties.

Seven things, all live.

Sites and apps I designed and built, in use right now. Pick a colour: each one is a kind of person I build for.

Concepts: unsolicited redesigns of apps people use every day, before and after. First up: Alterlife.

What I build.

From a one-page site for a taverna to an app on the App Store. Everything is designed for your business, not picked from a template.

Business websites

Tavernas, cafés, shops, rooms to let, offices, clinics, studios. Your menu or services, opening hours, photos, a map pin and a button that calls you.

Online shops

Sell from your own site with card payments. Products, stock and orders you manage yourself, from your phone.

iPhone & Android apps

Designed, built and published on the App Store and Google Play. Festival Cine and Laiki Agora started exactly like this.

Film, music & festivals

Programmes, line-ups, tickets, trailers. Sites for work that has to look as good online as it does on screen or on stage.

Landing pages

One page for a launch, an event, a campaign or a crowdfunding. Online quickly, with one clear thing to do.

Redesigns

Your old website rebuilt to load fast, read well on a phone and keep the Google ranking it already has.

Greek & English

Bilingual sites for tourists and customers abroad, with Greek typography that looks right, not like an afterthought.

Web apps & tools

Maps, calculators, booking systems, dashboards. Prin Psifiseis is this kind of project.

Every site comes with

  • Fast on any phone. Most of your visitors are on one.
  • Google from day one. Search, Google Maps and your business profile.
  • Your domain and https. Plus email addresses if you want them.
  • Edit it yourself, where it makes sense. Menus, prices, dates and photos, from your phone.
  • Analytics. See how many people visit and what they look for.
  • I stay on it. Fixes and changes after launch. You keep my number.

How it works.

No agency, no handover between a designer and a developer. The person you talk to is the person who builds it.

  1. 01

    You write to me

    A few lines on what you have and what you want. No brief, no forms.

  2. 02

    We talk

    A call, or a coffee if you're in Athens. You get a plan and a clear price.

  3. 03

    I design and build

    You see it on your own phone early and often, not as a PDF at the end.

  4. 04

    It goes live

    Domain, Google, maps, analytics. Then I stay on it for fixes and changes.

Hi, I'mYannis.

I started by building the websites and apps I wanted to use myself: every film festival in one programme, the street markets on a map, every music festival rated by the people who went. People used them, so now I build them for other people too.

I also direct films, which is where the eye comes from. I care how a site looks, how it reads and how fast it opens on a phone with one bar of signal. And I do the whole thing myself, so nothing gets lost between people.

Questions people ask.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on what it needs: a one-page site and an online shop are different jobs. Write to me with what you have in mind, and you get a clear price before anything starts.

How long does it take?

A simple site takes weeks, not months. Online shops and apps take longer. You get a date before we start, and you see progress on your phone along the way.

Will people find me on Google?

Every site is built for search from the first line: fast pages, proper titles and descriptions, structured data, a sitemap, and your Google Business Profile and map pin set up. Ranking takes time, but you start in the right place.

Can I change things myself?

Where it makes sense, yes: menus, prices, dates and photos can be set up so you edit them from your phone, without calling me. For everything else, I'm a message away.

Do you make apps too?

Yes, for iPhone and Android, and I handle publishing on the App Store and Google Play. Often the site and the app share the same content, so you update it in one place.

Do you work outside Athens?

Yes. I'm based in Athens and work with businesses and people all over Greece, and abroad. Everything works over email and calls.

Greek, English, or both?

Whatever your customers read. Many of the sites I build are in both languages, with Greek typography that looks right.

What about hosting and the domain?

I set up the domain, hosting, https and email addresses, and keep everything running after launch, so you don't have to deal with any of it.

Write to me. I usually answer the same day.
