I'm Reza Kandi, a developer based in Essen, Germany. Under the name Codebase24 I offer web design services for small businesses and self-employed professionals worldwide. Every site is hand-coded, not built from a template. You deal with me directly, in English or German, and you see a draft before you commit to anything.
Reply usually within 24 hours
Hand-coded, no templates. Your website looks like your business, not like everyone else's.
You see a design draft first, then decide. No risk, no buying blind.
I set up both. You never have to deal with the technical side.
I write the text and create fitting images. You just approve.
Clean structure, fast load times, proper meta tags. Google understands your site from day one.
Setup or optimization included, so local customers find you.
You can build your own site with Wix or Squarespace. Honestly, for some people that's enough. But you'll pay a monthly fee forever, spend your evenings fighting the editor, and end up with a site that looks like a thousand others. Templates are built for the masses, not for your business.
I hand-code every website. No templates, no page builders, just clean code that does exactly what your business needs. The result loads faster, looks sharp on mobile, and visibly stands out from your competitors. Google notices the difference too, because clean code is the foundation of good rankings.
If your budget is a few hundred euros, I'll tell you straight: use a website builder. But if you want custom website design that brings in customers instead of just existing, you're in the right place.

You don't get a bare design, you get a finished website that works. I set up your domain and hosting, so you never touch anything technical. I also create or optimize your Google Business Profile so local customers actually find you.
Copy and images are part of the package. Most website projects don't fail because of design, they fail because the client never delivers the text. So I write the copy for you, and you just approve it. Images are created or edited to fit your industry.
SEO basics are built in from day one: clean structure, fast load times, proper meta tags, mobile optimization. That's not a full SEO campaign, but it makes sure Google understands your site and people find you when they search for your name and your services.
Step one: you message me on WhatsApp or call. We talk briefly about what you do, what you need, and what you have in mind. You usually get a concrete quote within 24 hours.
Step two: I build a draft before you commit to anything. You see what your website will look like, then you decide. That takes the risk out of it. If the draft isn't for you, you walk away with no strings attached.
Step three: I build the full site, write the copy, and set up domain, hosting, and your Google Business Profile. You see progress along the way and can give feedback at any point. Then the site goes live and it's yours. You own it, you don't rent it.
My clients are small businesses and self-employed professionals who don't want an agency with five account managers. They want one developer who listens and delivers. Small business website design has one main job: build trust and bring in inquiries. That's what I build for.
My past projects cover four very different industries: skilled trades, B2B IT security, wholesale, and car sales. Four industries, four completely different designs. That's the point. Your site should look like your business, not like a template.
I'm based in Essen, Germany, and work remotely with clients worldwide, in English and German. Whether you're in London, New York, or Dubai makes no difference. Everything runs through WhatsApp and phone, direct and simple.
If you search for a web design agency, you want reliability and structure. If you search for a web designer, you want a person who listens and builds. The honest answer: for projects up to mid-market size you need both in one person. The structure of an agency, meaning fixed steps, a draft before commitment, a clean handover. And the short paths of an individual, where your change does not pass through three meetings first.
That is exactly how I work. Every site on this page was designed, built and maintained by me personally, from skilled trades to B2B wholesale. You get agency-level web design services without the agency apparatus, and on every day of the project you know who is responsible: the person you are texting with.
FAQ
A one-pager usually lands in the low four figures in euros. Multi-page sites with copy, images, and a Google Business Profile cost more, and complex builds like shops or booking systems go beyond that. After a short chat you get a fixed quote, usually within 24 hours.
A one-pager is often done in one to two weeks. Multi-page projects take two to four weeks, depending on how fast you give feedback. Since I handle copy and images, nothing stalls for months waiting on content.
You can, and for a hobby project that's fine. But you pay monthly forever, invest your own time, and end up with something people recognize as a template. A custom-built site loads faster, ranks better, and actually belongs to you.
Yes, I work remotely with clients worldwide, in English and German. The whole process runs through WhatsApp and phone, from first chat to launch. Your location doesn't matter.
Depending on the project I set up simple editing access, or you just send me changes via WhatsApp. For maintained sites, small text changes usually happen the same day.
Yes. Domain, code and content are yours. No rental model, no lock-in. If you ever want to switch, you take everything with you.
Almost none. I build static sites without a plugin zoo, so there is nothing that needs weekly updates or gets hacked like typical WordPress setups.
