Durchstarten im Internet e.K. - Online Marketing Agency

What Durchstarten im Internet e.K. - Online Marketing Agency does

Durchstarten im Internet e.K. is a German owner-operated (sole proprietorship, e.K.) online marketing agency founded in 2020, headquartered in the Rhein-Main-Neckar economic region (Alsbach-Hähnlein) and serving small and medium-sized businesses across Germany. The company is built around a WordPress-centric service stack covering website creation and redesign, responsive design, SEO (on-page and off-page), social media and email marketing, SEA/display advertising, load-time and security optimization, hosting setup, content creation, and analytics — delivered either as one-time projects or as retainer engagements, with a free initial consultation and free website analysis used for top-of-funnel conversion.

Underlying technology is conventional LAMP-style WordPress development using HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript/jQuery on the frontend and PHP5/MySQL on the backend, with DSGVO/GDPR-compliant configuration, premium theme and plugin expertise, and dedicated partnerships for legal compliance (eRecht24), medical-practice imagery (Phil Meinwelt), and stock photography (image agency). The firm sells this as a full-service, single-vendor offering with an explicit "no lock-in" stance (no proprietary platform dependency).

The go-to-market is direct and sales-led, supplemented by a content engine (A-Z Lexikon, magazine, blog), social channels (Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn), a newsletter, organic SEO, and a referral/affiliate program (Tippgeberprogramm) paying 15% commission up to EUR 250 per deal. In July 2023 the owner launched KIVEMA CONSULTING as a wholly-owned sub-brand for AI consulting, training, and implementation targeting German Mittelstand companies using third-party tools such as ChatGPT and Midjourney. The business is currently undergoing internal restructuring that has temporarily disabled online booking.
