👋🏻  hey.html

Hi, I'm Sander Janssen.

I prevent organizations from wasting money on their website.

With 12+ years of building websites, I keep things simple - no overcomplicated frameworks, no tech jargon your team can't understand.

I dig into the "why" behind your ideas, challenge assumptions, and propose features that actually move the needle.

What I do

What I won't do

  • Use pre-made templates
  • Day-to-day maintenance work
  • Build features without understanding the why

Let's collaborate to build something that makes a real difference for your business and your users.

“The website has turned out really well! It feels smooth, responsive works as it should, and it includes (micro)transitions that truly enhance the website.”

More about me

Back in 2012 I built my first website for my driving instructor. Terrible code, but seeing it work to help him get more traffic (hehe) felt amazing. That feeling never gets old.

These days, I'm selective about who I work with. I want to use my skills for organizations that actually matter - whether that's helping people, solving real problems, or making the world a bit better.

I'll ask the right questions, challenge assumptions when needed, and suggest improvements you might not have considered. My best clients love this collaborative approach.

The web should work for people, not against them. Ready to build something that actually matters?

When I'm not building websites, I'm probably spending my time:

  • 🏄🏻‍♂️   Surfing
  • 🤖   Playing with AI
  • 🎧   Listening to a podcast
  • 🔎   Searching for tracks to use in my DJ sets
