Why Hawd Design

What Makes Hawd Design Different From Other Web Design Agencies?

Quick Answer

Hawd Design is a full-service web design, SEO, and graphic design agency based in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, serving clients in the UK, US, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Australia since 1994. Unlike typical offshore agencies, Hawd Design operates as a nearshore strategic partner: our team communicates in flawless English, works within your timezone (GMT+1/GMT+2), and delivers Western European quality standards at 30–40% below the rates of comparable UK and US agencies. Every project includes a formalized 90-day post-launch Service Level Agreement (SLA), transparent fixed-price packages, and full codebase handover upon completion — no hidden fees, no ransom costs.

30+ Years Active · DACH-Proven Since 1994 · 4 Languages · 90-Day Warranty · Full Code Ownership

"We evaluated four agencies before selecting Hawd Design. The difference was immediately clear: they pushed back on our initial brief, identified a fundamental UX problem we had missed, and delivered a site that outperformed our previous one on every Core Web Vitals metric."

"What we feared most about working with a nearshore partner was communication latency. That fear was completely unfounded. Hawd Design's response times and English quality are indistinguishable from working with a London agency — at a fraction of the cost."

"The 90-day warranty was what tipped the decision for us. It showed they stood behind their work. Six months on, the site is still running flawlessly, and our organic traffic is up 140%."

Our Process — From Brief to Launch

About Us

30 Years of European Market Experience

Hawd Design d.o.o. was founded in Sarajevo in 1994 by Hamza Mutevelić, who built his career delivering digital projects for clients across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. That three-decade foundation of DACH market experience — where quality standards are among the most demanding in Europe — is the baseline from which every Hawd Design project departs.

Technical Lead Selmir Mujagić brings deep expertise in modern web architectures: headless CMS builds, Next.js and React applications, Core Web Vitals optimization, and technical SEO infrastructure that performs under the scrutiny of Google's most competitive markets.

We are not a startup. We are not an outsourcing intermediary. We are a senior, specialist team with a 30-year track record.
