Who we are

In Hamburg since 2020. With experience that goes back a long way.

Since 2020, we have been supporting companies and organisations with their websites as an owner-managed digital agency from Hamburg. We develop compact websites for small and medium-sized companies as well as extensive platforms. Our clients also include universities, associations and companies from industry and culture.

We work with an experienced, compact team. For you, this means: direct coordination, a dedicated contact, and design and technology that fit together. On request, we also accompany your website after launch with maintenance and further development.

Why clients value working with us.

From the start, you have a dedicated contact who knows your project and brings everyone involved together. So you do not have to explain yourself again and again, and you know who to turn to.

We plan manageable stages, record decisions and agree the next steps with you. You know where your project stands and when we need your feedback. We raise changes to scope or schedule early.

Project management, design and development work directly together at HMH. You clarify technical questions with the people who work on your website – without long coordination loops. We explain the context clearly so that you can make good decisions.

You know which services have been agreed and how we bill them. We document our effort transparently; additional services are agreed with you beforehand. The initial consultation and the quote are free of charge. We do not require a down payment.

We have been developing and supporting TYPO3 websites for many years – from the compact company website to the platform with several languages, editorial teams and interfaces. We use this experience for solutions that fit your requirements and remain easy to maintain and extend in the long term.

Our services

What we do for you.

In most projects, several disciplines interlock. Here you get an overview of our six service areas.

TYPO3 and development

The core of our work: we develop new platforms, modernise existing systems and accompany migrations and version upgrades. Added to this are custom features and interfaces – especially for multilingual websites and projects with several editorial teams.

Web design and UX

Before we design, we clarify goals, content and user guidance. Building on this, we develop the design and the right building blocks for your website. This applies to complete relaunches as well as to the targeted modernisation of an existing website.

SEO and performance

We improve the technical conditions for search engines and AI systems to capture your content. This includes a clear structure, suitable page settings and short loading times.

Accessibility and BFSG

We check which requirements apply to your organisation and where barriers exist on your website. We then support the technical implementation and show your editorial team what to look out for in new content.

AI and automation

We distinguish precisely where fixed processes are sufficient and where AI offers a real advantage. This results in better search functions, assistants based on your content, and interfaces that reliably take over recurring work.

Maintenance and support

On request, we continue to look after your website after launch: with updates, technical monitoring and support with questions. We agree scope and procedures with you.

A deliberate decision

TYPO3 with passion.
Ready for the future.

We have specialised in TYPO3. The system is particularly suitable for websites with extensive content, several editorial teams and different language versions.

Our team combines more than 30 years of TYPO3 experience: from migrations and version upgrades to custom extensions and interfaces. As a Silver Member of the TYPO3 Association, we also support the further development of the system.

Whether classic or headless architecture, we decide based on your goals and everyday editorial work. If the simpler solution is the better one, that is exactly what we recommend.

Why we rely on TYPO3
AI and automation

Less searching. Less duplicate data entry.

Some tasks can be automated with fixed processes, with others AI can help. Two examples show how we use both.

Finding information – even without the right technical term

Anyone searching a website or an internal knowledge base does not always know the terms under which information is filed. An AI-supported search can match differently worded questions with suitable content and refer to the sources used. This makes searching easier and can reduce recurring queries to the editorial team and service.

Maintain data once, use it in several places

Dates, programme or product data are often maintained in one system and entered again elsewhere. We connect the systems involved so that changes are adopted automatically. This saves duplicate work and reduces transfer errors – and AI is not necessarily needed for this.

How our AI search finds answers

Our AI search answers questions about services, projects and collaboration with texts from our website. We explain why the AI only selects rather than formulates at HMH, and how we deal with missing information.
