Your website shouldn’t just exist—it should do actual work for your business.
A lot of business owners spend money on a website, launch it, and then wonder why the phone still isn’t ringing.
In most cases, the problem isn’t lack of traffic. It’s friction:
The call-to-action is buried. If a visitor has to hunt across three pages just to find your WhatsApp, phone number, or quote form, they’ll leave and click a competitor instead.
Forms ask for too much. Asking for five unnecessary fields up front cuts conversion rates in half. Keep it to name, contact detail, and the basic request.
Mobile speed is sluggish. More than 70% of local service searches happen on a phone. If your site takes longer than 2–3 seconds to load on mobile data, most visitors bounce before reading your first headline.
A clean, modern web build doesn't need bloated animations or 30 plugins. It just needs to load fast, clearly explain what you do, and give visitors a frictionless way to contact you.
What’s the biggest hurdle you see on service business websites? Let’s talk in the comments—or send me a message if your current site is overdue for a refresh.

I built this to see if I could make a point-cloud museum that moves with your mouse and still stays smooth at 60 FPS without any framework. No libraries. No build steps. Just Canvas2D and a bunch of tiny floating lights.
WHAT I WAS TESTING:
I was testing how well I could keep point-cloud rendering alive under constant user motion while keeping the frame rate locked at 60. The system had to handle hundreds of thousands of points updating every frame, and I had to make sure the browser didn’t stutter from garbage collection or event throttling.
THE TECHNICAL SIDE:
Everything runs in the browser with Canvas2D. No WebGL. No Three.js. No external dependencies. I wrote custom shaders with GLSL to color and animate the point clouds. I hand-tuned the event loop to avoid frame drops during mouse moves, and used requestAnimationFrame with manual frame pacing to stay at 60. Memory is allocated per object and recycled on demand. No global state leaks. No third-party tracking.
WHAT I LEARNED:
The key was not making the math too tight or too loose. Too tight and the browser would freeze. Too loose and the frame rate would drop. I learned to profile frame times, adjust point update rates based on user velocity, and use a simple debounced event handler to keep mouse movement from overwhelming the system. It runs at 60 on an old laptop, and feels buttery on a mid-tier machine.
TRY IT YOURSELF:
Open it in your browser, it's hosted live on my JSFiddle. Move the mouse around. Watch how the clouds react. No lag. No freeze. No framework.😊
Professional, nice work👍
COTA, a padel club that finds your fourth player
Every padel player knows the problem: you have the court, you have two friends, and you are one short. In Spain it has a name, falta uno.
COTA is a padel club concept for Madrid built around that moment. Book a court, say how many of you are coming and leave Falta uno on. Every player at your level who wants alerts gets an email the same second, the first to tap Join takes the spot, the match board updates live, and the court fee splits four ways on its own.
Courts are picked straight from the club in 3D: slide through the day and the free courts light up, tap one, choose how long you play, and the price is there.
Wow! Love it
Perfect work
