# Lightwaves • Websites. Lightyears ahead > We make websites smarter, faster & better. - 40 Years of Experience - 100 Percent Magic - 2 Lightyears Ahead We believe in a free and open web. Free of distraction. And open to everyone. We strive to make the web clearer and embark on this journey to make it faster. We know the beauty of websites can be measured. But we believe it’s more important to feel. ## Services ### Webdesign > Attracting like light. Your business is unique. And that's exactly how your website should be. That's why we don't use cookies, AI-generated texts or page builders. Like you we convey clarity over clutter, light accents instead of overload, and profound information over empty talk. And that makes all the difference. ### Branding > Brand new reflections. Your brand is the first point of contact. And first impressions matter. They determine how your audience feels about you. That's why we believe logos must embody your philosophy on not just one – but many levels. Your texts should stand out and create a unique language. This will earn you resonance and waves of engagement. ### Content > Feels. So. Write. Lightwaves has a long history when it comes to contentcreation: We've written texts for media outles, PR agencies and pro bono. When we film, we always tell stories. Whether we're writing a headline or a feature article – we always strive to create magic. Just with a few letters and a keyboard. Fly with us to the moon. ### Training > We ship you knowledge. Sailing the seven seas of wisdom is not easy. A fundamental part of prohibiting brain drift is sharing knowledge. If you want to become a better writer or animate more densely – make your turn for brilliance. With us. Because we share our maps, not just the compass – so that you can navigate safely through these creative waters. ## Incentives ### Static and Secure. We believe you don’t need piles of data – you need loyal users. That’s why we build with »static site generators«. It creates a true bond of trust between you and your audience. And with no backend, bad actors don’t stand a chance. ### Everything from Europe. Our development and hosting stay in Europe — open, auditable, GDPR-compliant. It’s our way of ensuring privacy, stability, and digital freedom — no overseas shortcuts, no foreign cloud lock-in. Straightforward, secure, independent. ### Access for All. We build with accessibility in mind. Not as an afterthought, but as a fundamental part of the structure itself. A site that works for everyone, everywhere, naturally reaches more people. And an inclusive, truly open web is always a better web. ### Performance with Precision. We build for speed from the ground up. Static generation keeps things light, lean code removes the friction, and optimized assets make every interaction feel effortless. Performance isn’t a bonus — it’s the baseline. Built on the latest standards– so your site just works. Everywhere. ### Branding with Backbone. We design for impact that endures. Visions turn into clear applications: logos, color palettes, typography, imagery. The outcome is a brand identity that resonates today and keeps performing tomorrow – across digital and analog worlds alike. ### Maintenance with Method. We rely on setups that are fast, secure, and low-maintenance. Less effort for you, less attack surface for others. That keeps your site running as steady as rock – scalable, durable, and still technically solid and visually relevant years down the line. ### SEO for Sure. Beyond high-end technical SEO, our approach is based on thorough, detailed research – identifying which keywords truly count, and how they keep your brand visible and relevant in the long run. Our credo: credible, lasting content over keyword dumping. ### Pricing with Purpose. We believe pricing should open doors, not close them. That’s why we work on a social scale – so ideas with potential don’t get stuck on budget. From solo founders to mid-sized companies to the community project around the corner – we make sure ambition finds its way online. ## Work ### Survey > Some Light Questions ### Reconnect > Reliving good Connections ### Newsletter > Letters from Lightwaves ### Lightwaves > Godspeed?

But instead of suns and wavey beaches he is more into darkmodes and technical deepdives. He's a performance nut and enjoys hosting his own Kubernetes-Cluster. Team Talos . ### Eva > Waves of Inspiration. It doesn't matter if it's her designs, her communication skills or her very nature. Eva is always able to create strong feelings of uplift. Her talents do not come in waves but are a solid constant. Eva worked with every major media outlet in Austria. It's not a mystery she likes cats. But Evas creativity will probably remain one. ### Miho > This cat is content. Our main disruptor. When we code Miho wants food. When we write he needs to chase. So he helps us to think outside the catbox. He likes tuna. ## Testimonials ### Carina Ceo • Reconnect > »Responsive! That's the guiding star for Lightwaves.
