Looking for a professional web designer in Rotterdam? You’re in the right place. At Design by Karina, I create websites that don’t just look beautiful — they’re built to work hard for your business. From boosting your local visibility to bringing in more client inquiries, your website becomes a powerful tool, not just a pretty page.
Every website I create is custom-built to reflect your brand, speak to your ideal audience, and help you stand out in Rotterdam’s competitive market. Together, we’ll design something that feels like you — and converts like crazy.
Rotterdam is bold, fast-paced, and full of competition. If your website doesn’t stand out or clearly show who you are, you’re missing opportunities. A well-designed site helps you make a strong first impression — the kind that builds trust and sticks with people.
Your website should reflect your local brand identity and feel like an extension of your business. Strategic design supports that story while also boosting your visibility online. With local SEO and the right structure, you’ll get found by the right people in Rotterdam and beyond. But it’s not just about being seen — it’s about turning visitors into clients. That’s where thoughtful design makes all the difference.
Every project starts with a real conversation — no automated forms or cookie-cutter briefs. We’ll talk through your brand values, goals, and what makes your business tick. From there, I dive into research: your audience, your competitors, and what sets you apart in the Rotterdam market. Together, we’ll define the direction your new website needs to take.
Once we have a solid strategy, I move into the creative phase. I’ll explore colors, fonts, visual inspiration, and layout ideas that truly represent you. This includes moodboards, visual direction, and early mockups. All of this ensures your site speaks directly to your target audience in a way that feels natural and true to your brand.
I design every experience with purpose — not just for looks, but for results. I create a structure that guides your visitors smoothly from their first click to your call to action. Everything is optimized for mobile, accessibility, and conversion. It’s a blend of beauty and brains.
When we move into the final design phase, I bring all the pieces together: visuals, structure, and content. Every element is refined until it feels right — and looks amazing.
Great design deserves a smooth technical implementation. I make sure your website is fast, responsive, and easy to manage — whether you’re using WordPress or Shopify. I handle both the design and development myself (with a little help from Jackie, my fluffy assistant 🐾), so everything works exactly as intended — no surprises, no disconnect. From start to finish, it’s all built with care and precision to match your vision.
Your landing page isn’t just a webpage—it’s your first chance to make an impact. I create compelling, conversion-focused pages that capture leads, drive action, and align seamlessly with your brand’s vision. With a perfect blend of design and strategy, your landing page will engage, inspire, and turn visitors into loyal customers.
Your business is one of a kind—your website should be too. I design and build tailored websites that don’t just look beautiful but tell your brand’s story, captivate your audience, and drive real business growth. Whether you’re launching, rebranding, or scaling, I create a strategic online presence that truly represents you and converts visitors into customers.
A great webshop is more than just a storefront—it’s an experience. I design and develop fully optimized Shopify and WooCommerce (WordPress) webshops that are not only beautiful but also intuitive, user-friendly, and built to convert. From seamless navigation to a smooth checkout process, every detail is crafted to engage shoppers, build trust, and maximize sales.
A beautiful website is only powerful if people can find it.
