Web design with WordPress & Elementor

We specialize in web design solutions based on the WordPress content management system using the Elementor framework. as a so-called “page builder”. This enables almost infinite design possibilities and user-friendly content maintenance by the customer.

The web hosting is done on behalf of the customer with a hoster of his choice, we recommend the WordPress hosting packages from Ionos . Of course, we support the customer in concluding a corresponding hosting contract. In addition to the services for the creation of the website, we offer to purchase the necessary licenses or annual rental fees for the Elementor Framework and other components through us, as we can offer more favorable conditions here due to quantity purchases.

Website Optimization

Whenever more complex scenarios need to be mapped, the use of Crocoblock makes sense. Especially the use of Jet Engine to create so-called “Custom Post Types” is useful in many cases.

But also the use of the other tools for creating filters, searches, mega menus or special effects on the website are worth the purchase.

Crocoblock Overview

Crocoblock Suite includes numerous plugins that can be used depending on the application. JetEngine provides dynamic content like Custom Post Typoes, JetMenu can be used to create mega menus, JetElements provides numerous Elementor widgets, JetSearch extends the search on the website, etc. Booking and scheduling solutions are included as well as numerous extensions for the WooCommerce store system.

Jetengine Listing

Whenever it comes to displaying content in the same format repeatedly on the web page, JetEngine helps. For example, the real estate agent only has to fill out a form with the details of the property and a post of this property is created and displayed on the website – it couldn’t be easier. Have a look at the References page – this listing was created with Jetengine.

Website Optimization

After an initial creation, you often have to put your hand aside with regard to optimization.

On the one hand, this concerns the optimization in the area of search engines, see here also in the area of SEO .

But a variety of settings can also be made in the area of loading times (also a subtopic of SEO) and security. We optimize the websites individually, depending on the customer’s requirements.

When it comes to loading times, we use the following solutions, among others:

Adobe Photoshop

Using a special plugin, the images are not only reduced in size, but also delivered in the modern WebP format. As a result, we reduce the size of the delivered images and thus their loading times considerably!

Rocket Launch

By means of optimized caching plugins based on WordPress, the content is delivered faster and the loading times are thus significantly reduced.

CSS Code

With the help of a special plugin, CSS and JS files are minimized as much as possible and only loaded on the page when they are needed for its functionality.

Cloud

For demanding tasks in the area of loading times – e.g. for globally accessible websites – but also in the area of security, we offer the use of a so-called “Content Delivery Network” (CDN) by means of the provider Cloudflare.

Security

A secure web presence is essential for companies and organizations!

A secure website means that users’ data is protected, that it is not misused and that it does not fall into the hands of cybercriminals. User authentication must also be ensured to prevent unauthorized persons from accessing sensitive data. In addition, it is important that the website is always kept up to date to ensure optimal security. By regularly reviewing the web presence, security vulnerabilities can be detected and fixed early, which is an effective deterrent to cybercrime. To take full advantage of these benefits, it is therefore important that companies and organizations have a secure web presence.

In the area of security and protection of the website, we rely on a combination of various measures that all interlock and as a package increase the security of the website:

Data Protection

For basic protection, we follow the usual procedures for securing a website:

  • Daily update of all WordPress components (core, plugins, themes, translations) via a special tool
  • Daily backup of all data to cloud storage (outside the hosting environment)
  • Scanning of relevant security channels for possible threats
  • Database protection
  • Adding HTTP security headers.
Maximum Security

By default, we use a free “Web Application Firewall” as a plugin to block the attacks on the site in advance.

Cloud

For extended requirements, we combine the above measures with the use of a so-called “Content Delivery Network” (CDN) via the provider Cloudflare.

How the successful combination of the above measures affects can be determined, for example, via Google Pagespeed – the results, as seen below, are excellent!

Google Page Speed Test

Appropriate optimizations (e.g. the use of Cloudflare as a CDN and appropriate settings in the SSL configuration) can also achieve A+ values at SSL-Labs .

Using a commercial service, we monitor all client websites every minute for the presence of a keyword on the homepage. If this is no longer available, an alert is sent via push message and email to the cell phone or also to the Apple Watch. Thus, we quickly discover problems and can take care of their elimination. Problems with hanging updates are also detected and reported by the software (rarely happens, but has happened).

A status page of the availabilities can be accessed here: Status page

At the customer’s request, we set up the Matomo analytics tool for the customer instance. Just like Google Analytics, the visits of the users can be analyzed here, e.g. to evaluate campaigns – but without the data flowing to the USA – these remain on our own servers in Germany!

Via a central console, we also monitor the deployed security software “Ninja Firewall” for messages in the security area. For special events, we will also be notified by email.

The package also includes a data backup. This backs up the full website weekly and changes daily. Furthermore, 14 generations of the daily database backup are removed, so that unwanted changes can be rolled back.
