Web design, e-commerce and social media built for you.
Kern Digital is a web design agency based near Marburg, Germany, covering web design, e-commerce scaling, and social media content. We work remotely for clients across Germany and internationally — including in Greece, Finland, and Singapore — and tie every measure to a metric that matters: load time, conversion rate, or reach.
Three disciplines. One logic: measure, don't guess.
Every decision is measured against a metric — load time, conversion rate, or reach.

No guesswork. A process that measures.
Four phases, each ending in a number — not just a good feeling.
Understand & measure
We review the current state, data, and competitors — and define the metric that matters.
Set the levers
We prioritize the measures with the biggest impact on your business goal.
Build & launch
Custom, fast, clean — design and technology.
Optimize & grow
We test, learn, and keep turning the dials that drive revenue.
Why 80% of websites generate almost zero leads.
Most websites don't fail because of visuals — they fail due to measurable technical and psychological friction.
Load time over 3 seconds
Over half of mobile users abandon a website if it takes longer than 3s to load. Every millisecond directly impacts your conversion rate.
Unclear Value Proposition
If a visitor cannot grasp what you offer and why it matters within 5 seconds, they bounce straight to your competitor.
Accessibility Compliance
Since June 2025, commercial websites and shops must be accessible under the BFSG (European Accessibility Act). We build WCAG-compliant.
| Criteria | Standard Builders (Wix/Squarespace) | Traditional Large Agency | Kern Digital Focus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Speed & Performance | Often sluggish (> 3s) from plugin bloat | Average to good, often heavy | Lightning fast (< 0.8s), 0 KB wasted JS |
| Direct Contact & Speed | No developer, purely self-service | Slow ticket queues & account managers | Direct developer access, agile turnaround |
| Conversion & Psychology | Generic cookie-cutter templates | Focus often solely on visuals | Targeted lead funnels with chat & stepper |
| Pricing & Transparency | Low cost, but heavily restricted | High monthly retainers & overhead | Fair fixed project pricing, zero lock-in |
Quick answers
What services does Kern Digital offer?
Kern Digital offers three service areas: web design & development, e-commerce scaling, and social media content. Every service is measured against concrete metrics such as load time, conversion rate, or reach.
What does a project with Kern Digital cost?
Costs depend individually on project size and requirements, so a blanket price wouldn't be honest. After a free initial consultation you'll receive a concrete quote tailored to your project.
How long does a website or shop project take?
Duration depends on scope: focused websites are often achievable within a few weeks, while larger e-commerce projects take longer. We set a binding timeline after the initial consultation.
Does Kern Digital also do SEO?
Yes. A technical SEO foundation — load time, clean structure, meta data — is part of every website. There's also a free website and SEO check.
Does Kern Digital also do GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?
Yes. Alongside classic SEO for Google, we also optimize websites for generative AI search systems such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews, so content is correctly understood, cited, and recommended as a trustworthy source.
Is working with Kern Digital GDPR-compliant?
Websites are built with data protection in mind, including cookie consent management and a minimal footprint of third-party services. The legally sound wording of the imprint and privacy policy should ideally still be coordinated with a qualified professional.
Are accessible websites built under German accessibility law (BFSG)?
Since June 2025, Germany's Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG) requires many digital offerings — especially in B2C e-commerce — to be accessible. We follow WCAG standards and review during the initial consultation how relevant the BFSG is.
Is there support after launch?
Yes, on request we handle maintenance, updates, and ongoing optimization to keep your site fast and secure.
