The problem

Your website should win customers, not just exist.

Most people search on their phone first. If your site doesn't convince them there, the job goes to the competitor two streets away.

Typical today

  • Outdated site that's hard to read on a phone
  • Invisible on Google when someone searches “hairdresser Bornheim”
  • Site-builder subscription with monthly fees and still no enquiries
  • No clear path to book, call or get in touch

With bauwau

  • Modern design, built for smartphones first
  • Local SEO for your neighbourhood so people find you
  • One fixed price, no subscription trap, and you own the website
  • Clear calls to action: call, book, send an enquiry

Before / after

First impressions decide.

Drag the slider: same business, same content, but a presence that builds trust and invites people to book.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does a website from bauwau cost?

Packages start at €899 for a professional one-page site. Most local businesses choose the Standard package at €1,299. You pay one fixed price, with no monthly subscription.

How long until my website is online?

Between 2 and 6 weeks depending on the package. It mostly depends on how quickly texts and images are ready, and we help with a simple checklist.

What ongoing costs are there?

We set up hosting for free. You only pay for your domain (about €10–15 a year). If you like, we can take care of ongoing updates.

Can I change my website later?

Just send us changes like new prices, opening hours or photos by message and we'll update them quickly. Your site stays technically clean and you don't have to deal with anything.

Will people find me on Google?

Every site is built to be technically clean for search engines. From the Standard package, we also optimise for your neighbourhood. Setting up your Google Business Profile, the biggest lever for local searches, is available as an add-on.

Do you only work in Frankfurt?

Our studio is in Frankfurt am Main, and we are happy to meet in person across the Rhine-Main region. Clients elsewhere in Germany work with us by video call, phone and email, with the same process and the same fixed prices.

What do I need to prepare?

Nothing but 30 minutes for the intro call. Afterwards you get a short checklist for logo, texts and photos. If you don't have photos, we'll find a solution together.
