Digital Schils

🧩 The Challenge

Aspire wordsĀ is a Belgium-based digital marketing consultancy focused on helping local businesses elevate their presence through smart content, branding, and social media strategy. While their services were cutting-edge, their outdated website failed to represent their expertise or communicate their value proposition clearly. The client sought a modern, minimal, and bilingual-friendly site that instantly built credibility and captured leads.

Web Design + Branding Support

Pain Points:

  • Outdated design lacking visual appeal and clarity

  • No clear content funnel for service explanation or conversion

  • Poor mobile responsiveness and accessibility

  • Limited SEO optimization and weak content structure

  • Needed a site that appealed to creative agencies and small-medium businesses alike

The goal:Ā 

The primary objective was to redesign the Digital Schils website into a sleek, modern, and conversion-optimized digital presence that:

  • Clearly communicates their services and results

  • Showcases the founder’s personality and achievements

  • Appeals to startups, creators, and local Belgian brands

  • Encourages potential clients to book consultations or get in touch easily

  • Supports both Dutch and English speaking audiences

šŸ› ļø Our Approach

1. Brand Alignment & UI/UX Planning

  • A full audit of the old site was performed to analyze structure, flow, and performance gaps.

  • We opted for a dark modern UI with large headings, white-space balance, and visual storytelling.

  • The tone was set to be both professional and approachable—true to the founder’s personal brand.

I conducted user research and usability mapping to uncover how motorsport fans consume content online. The focus was on optimizing flow, speed, and engagement—ensuring the platform meets the expectations of an audience fueled by adrenaline and real-time updates.

2. Homepage & Navigation Redesign

  • Introduced a scroll-based layout that segments the homepage into distinct messaging blocks: hero intro, services, success proof, and testimonials.

  • Embedded clear CTAs at all critical junctions (ā€œLet’s connectā€, ā€œFree consultā€).

  • Made the navigation bar sticky for better usability.

3. Services Page Overhaul

  • Each service offering was rewritten for clarity and impact: from digital strategy and branding to social content and paid media campaigns.

  • Created a visual breakdown with iconography to support each offering.

  • Added carousel-style client testimonials to support social proof.

4. Responsive, Speed-Optimized Design

  • Used a lightweight, mobile-first WordPress theme and minimized plugins for fast load times.

  • Thorough testing across browsers and screen sizes to ensure full responsiveness.

5. Bilingual Setup Support

  • Implemented WPML configuration for Dutch-English switching.

  • Translated UI/UX copy and ensured content parity across languages.
