Software Engineer Intern

Before becoming an agency owner, like many others... I was a freelancer.

I once worked with a kind Lady named Sofia.

She is a Small Gym Owner in Tampere, Finland.

She hired me to work on her business website.

She told me she didn't expect the total cost of the website to be so small
compared to the quality work I did for her.

After I did a little investigation into her perspective

she told me about the high price other freelancers and agencies wanted to
charge her for something inferior to what I was offering.

She introduced me to some of her colleagues in the same industry, and unsurprisingly most of them had the same experience with website development agencies and freelancers.😩

I realized then that businesses in this industry are highly overcharged for subpar work, so I decided to start my agency: Ethical Devs.

Which stands for Ethical Developers.

It reflects the very core of our values and mission. In an industry often driven by speed and innovation, we stand out by emphasizing ethical considerations when collaborating with our clients. 

Websites in nearly any industry are crucial.

✅ It's where your clients go to see your work
✅ Learn more about your values
✅ See how your story has unfolded
✅ Sell your product/service 24 hours a day
✅ But most importantly, to assess if they are a good fit for what you offer.

I believe that you shouldn't be overcharged for a fantastic website.

That will also grow your business effectively and consistently.
