Web design and development in Rhodes

Most web designers stop at the screen. I also take care of everything underneath, so you only ever have one number to call.

  1. “We have a website, but it doesn’t bring us any customers.”

    Websites that bring in customers

    Website design and development for companies, hotels, transfer companies and online shops. Bilingual, fast on phones and set up properly for Google.

    • Designed from scratch
    • Greek & English
    • SEO & Google Business
    • Forms, bookings, maps

    Examples: Rhodes Central, DRESSAGE, Surfing Bird.

  2. “Our bookings and customers live in three spreadsheets and a notebook.”

    Software built around you

    When spreadsheets stop being enough: booking systems, CRMs, task management, desktop apps and platforms with user accounts.

    • Web apps & PWAs
    • Booking systems
    • Dashboards & reports
    • Desktop applications

    Examples: Orama Suite, Order Experts, Rhodes Central.

  3. “We don’t even know who has the password for our domain.”

    Hosting, domains & maintenance

    I set up and monitor your hosting, email and backups. Updates and fixes happen without you having to think about them.

    • Cloudflare & modern hosting
    • Domains & business email
    • Backups & monitoring
    • Monthly support

    Examples: Orama Suite, DRESSAGE, Forologika.

  4. “The Wi‑Fi keeps dropping and nobody knows if we have backups.”

    Networks & IT infrastructure

    Your office should just work. Servers, Wi‑Fi, secure remote access and data protection for small and large businesses.

    • Servers & virtualisation
    • MikroTik & Ubiquiti networks
    • VPN & remote work
    • Backups & security

    Examples: Order Experts, Copy Experts IT, Hephaestus.

How I build

Six principles I follow on every project, and where you can see them in practice.

  1. Fast by design

    Ready-made HTML where possible, edge servers where needed, minimal JavaScript. Speed is planned in, not patched on at the end.

    In practice: this website0.93 son slow 4G, until the main content shows
  2. Secure by design

    Encryption on the device, access rules inside the database, rate limits. Your customers’ data is never left exposed.

    In practice: VaultlyAES‑256on-device encryption
  3. Bookings and payments online

    Availability, bookings and card payments that work around the clock, with confirmation emails for you and your customer.

    In practice: Rhodes Central24/7bookings and payments
  4. Talks to Greek government systems

    Integrations with myDATA, e‑EFKA and KEAO, the platforms every Greek business has to use.

    In practice: Forologika3platforms on one screen
  5. Infrastructure without downtime

    Servers, networks and backups designed so changes happen while the business keeps working.

    In practice: Copy Experts IT0days of downtime during migration
  6. Tested before it ships

    Automated end‑to‑end tests and database changes that never delete data. Whatever goes live has already been checked.

    In practice: Orama Suite70+database changes, no data lost

This site too: it scores 100 on Lighthouse for accessibility, best practices and SEO.

How we work together

No surprises. From day one you know what you’ll get, when, and what it costs. A typical website project:

  1. Day 1

    Introduction

    A short chat — by phone, online or in person in Rhodes — about what you need and what you want to achieve.

  2. Within 3 days

    Proposal

    A written proposal with what will be built, a timeline and a fixed price. Nothing hidden.

  3. Weeks 1–3

    Design & build

    You can follow progress on a live link from week one and comment whenever you like.

  4. Once you approve

    Launch & support

    The project goes live, I show you how to manage it and I stay available for whatever comes next.

From the cable to the screen

I’m Emmanouil Kontos, though most people know me as Manolis. I’ve been writing code for over eight years and building networks and servers for just as long. Today I’m Head of IT & Networks at Copy Experts in Rhodes, where I built the Orama Suite, Forologika and Order Experts apps.

I also design websites and apps for businesses and organisations, from local shops and transfer companies to the Hydrobiological Station of Rhodes. Because I understand the infrastructure too, what I build is fast, secure and easy to maintain.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a website cost?

It depends on size and features. After a short call, we send you a written proposal with a fixed price, so you know the exact cost before you commit to anything.

How long does it take?

A company website usually takes 2–4 weeks. Apps and platforms are split into phases, so you get something working as early as possible.

Can I edit text and photos myself?

Yes. Where it makes sense, I set up a simple content editor and show you how to use it. If you’d rather not, I can make the changes for you as part of monthly support.

Do you also handle hosting, domains and email?

Yes, all in one place. I recommend setups with low or zero monthly hosting cost, and the accounts always stay in your name.

What does a full-stack web developer do?

Builds both what you see, the design and the website itself, and everything that runs behind it: the database, the server, hosting and connections to other systems. For you it means one team for the whole project, from the first idea to ongoing maintenance.

Do you work with businesses outside Rhodes?

Of course. Most meetings happen online. For networks and on-site IT I work with businesses in Rhodes and the rest of the Dodecanese.

I already have a website. Can you improve it?

Yes. I start with a free check of speed, mobile layout and Google visibility, then tell you plainly what is worth fixing and what should be rebuilt. Choose “Review my current website” in the form.
