Building a website at a computer — a practical web design lesson

Why combine web design with marketing

A website works better when design, content and client acquisition are planned together

Website development alone

  • Visually attractive but without a clear goal
  • An unconsidered client journey
  • Weak visibility on Google
  • No clear advertising and content system
  • Results are hard to evaluate

Web design and marketing in one programme

  • A structure built for a specific audience
  • Design that supports enquiries or sales
  • Content optimised for search engines and people
  • Marketing channels that lead to the right pages
  • Analytics that support informed decisions

We choose the technology to match your project

In the lessons you can work with:

  • Figma
  • WordPress
  • Joomla
  • Webflow
  • Shopify
  • Google Analytics
  • Search Console
  • ChatGPT
  • Claude
  • Gemini
  • Canva AI
  • SEO tools
  • Image generation & automation

The choice of tools depends on the website's goal, budget, functionality and your previous experience.
