Goudbeek designs and builds custom websites for businesses, from Almere in the Netherlands. Not a template with your logo on it, but a site designed from a blank page for your business: rendered on the server so it loads fast, structured so Google and AI assistants can read it, and with text you change yourself.

## Fast because of how it is built

A fast site is a build decision, not a plugin you add at the end. We render every page on the server, so a visitor gets readable content straight away instead of a blank screen that still has to assemble itself. Images arrive at the size of the screen asking for them, and scripts are kept to what earns its place.

- Rendered on the server
- Images sized to the screen
- Only scripts that earn their place

## Findable in Google and in AI assistants

Search engines and AI assistants such as ChatGPT read your site as text. So we build it so that the text holds up: real headings in a logical order, clean addresses, and structured data that says who you are, what you do and where. If you have two languages, they are properly linked. And where it fits, we add an llms.txt: a short summary of the site for language models.

Nobody can honestly promise you the top spot. What we do: make sure your content meets no technical hurdles.

## Yours to change, without a ticket

The text and photos you change often are yours to change: a new service, a better photo, a sentence that could be sharper. You do not need to call a developer for that. The parts where one wrong click could break the layout stay locked. What is editable and what is fixed, we agree together.

## Your domain, your code, no lock-in

The domain, the repository with the code and the content live in your accounts, in your name. Which analytics run, if any, is your call. And if you want to move elsewhere later, you take the whole thing with you: there is no lock-in to us.

## Ready for a chatbot, a form or a client portal

A website rarely stands alone. If a chatbot comes later, a form that routes requests to the right place by itself, or a client portal, it lands in the same codebase instead of being bolted onto the side. Goudbeek also builds the [AI chatbot for your website](https://goudbeek.com/en/solutions/chatbots) and helps with [automating business processes](https://goudbeek.com/en/solutions/workflows), so the site and what runs behind it come from one place.

Want to know first where the work behind your site gets stuck? That starts with [improving business processes](https://goudbeek.com/en/process-improvement).

## Designed from a blank page, not from a template.

Not a theme that sits under other sites too, but a design for the business it belongs to. That is why every project starts with a conversation about your business, not with a catalogue.

## How a web design project goes

Four steps, from the first message to a site that is live. Work only starts once the price is on paper and you have said yes to it.

### Intake

A short conversation about what the site needs to do: which pages, which languages, what it has to connect to, and what you already have, such as a logo, text or photos.

### A fixed price

After the intake, on paper: what gets built, what it runs on and one amount. No open-ended bill.

### A working first version

The first thing you see is a working version of the site in your browser, not a picture. Small but real, before we build further.

### Live and maintained

The site goes live on hosting we run and watch, and gets better based on what real use shows. Hosting it yourself is possible too.

## Hosting and maintenance from €39 a month

If you want us to run and maintain the site, that starts at €39 a month. Would you rather host it yourself? That works too, and we hand it over properly.

- Updates
- Backups
- Certificates for HTTPS
- Uptime watched

## Our own work: Brohns

Brohns is our own AI website builder, and it is live. You describe a goal and one brain assembles a team of AI agents: research, code and live connections in a single dashboard, with an approvals queue where you stay in control. We built it ourselves and still run it, the same way we build a site for you and keep it running.

Showcase — coming soon

This is where our web design work will live.

We are building a visual showcase of the sites we make. Until it is ready, we would rather show nothing than make something up.

## Questions about having a website built

Is your question not here? Just ask: you get an answer within one business day.

### What does it cost to have Goudbeek build a website?

The price of a website depends on what the site has to do: how many pages, which features, how many languages and which systems it connects to. That is why there is no made-up amount here. After a short intake you get one fixed price up front, on paper, not an open-ended bill. Hosting and maintenance are optional, from €39 a month. Which factors count is explained in [what determines the price of a website](https://goudbeek.com/en/notes/website-cost-factors). [Request a quote](https://goudbeek.com/en/pricing).

### How long does it take to build a website?

How long it takes to build a website depends on the scope: the number of pages, the languages, the integrations and whether text and photos are ready. So we do not name a fixed number of weeks here. What is fixed: you first see a working version of the site in your browser, not a picture, and we only build further once it is right. We discuss your timeline in the intake.

### Do you work with templates or WordPress themes?

No, a Goudbeek site does not start from a template or a WordPress theme, but from a blank page: designed for the business it belongs to and built with modern web technology that renders on the server. That makes speed a build decision rather than a plugin you add at the end. The text and photos you change often, you simply change yourself.

### Can I change the text and photos myself?

Yes, you can change the text and photos you update often yourself, without a ticket and without a developer. The parts where one wrong click could break the layout, such as the structure of a page, stay locked. Which parts are editable and which are fixed, we agree with you up front.

### Who owns the website?

A website from Goudbeek is yours: the domain, the repository with the code and the content live in your accounts, in your name. There is no lock-in: if you later want to move the site elsewhere or have someone else maintain it, you can, and we hand it over properly. Hosting with us is a choice, not a condition.

### Will my website be found in Google?

We build your website so Google can read it properly: real headings, clean addresses, fast pages and structured data that search engines read. If you have two languages, they are linked. We do not promise the top spot, because nobody can honestly promise that. What we do: set up the technology so it does not get in your content's way.

### Can ChatGPT and other AI assistants read my website?

Yes, our websites are built to be readable for ChatGPT and other AI assistants. Because they are rendered on the server, all the content is right there in the HTML an assistant or search engine fetches, with clear headings and structured data about who you are and what you do. Where it fits, we add an llms.txt: a short summary of the site for language models. Whether an assistant mentions you is up to that assistant. More in [making a website readable for AI assistants](https://goudbeek.com/en/notes/website-readable-by-ai-assistants).

### Can a chatbot, form or integration be added later?

Yes, a chatbot, form or integration can be added later. If a chatbot, a form that forwards requests by itself or a client portal comes along, it lands in the same codebase instead of being bolted onto the side. Goudbeek also builds [AI chatbots for websites](https://goudbeek.com/en/solutions/chatbots) and helps with [automating business processes](https://goudbeek.com/en/solutions/workflows), so the site and what runs behind it come from one place.

### Can I have a bilingual website built?

Yes, a bilingual website is possible: we build sites in Dutch, in English or in both, and work in both languages ourselves. The two versions are properly linked, so search engines know which page belongs to which language and the versions do not get in each other's way. This site works the same way: Dutch at the main address, English under /en.

### Can you redesign my existing website?

Yes, we redesign existing websites too. In the quote request you then choose a redesign instead of a new site. We start from what is there now and what of it works well, and design the new site from a blank page. Addresses that already get visitors or search traffic are redirected to their new place, so existing links and search results keep leading to the right page.

### Are you based in Almere?

Yes, Goudbeek is based in Almere, in the province of Flevoland. We work for businesses across the Netherlands and remotely, in Dutch or English. You deal directly with the person who designs and builds your site, with no layers in between, and you get a reply to your message within one business day. [Get in touch](https://goudbeek.com/en/contact).

### What do I need to get started?

To have a website built you do not need much: an idea of what the site needs to do is enough for the intake. If you already have a logo or house style, text or photos, we bring them in; if you have nothing yet, that is a start too. You describe it in a few questions on the [quote page](https://goudbeek.com/en/pricing) and hear back within one business day.

## Tell us what your site needs to do.
