Direct collaboration without an agency in between
Hi, I’m Ulrich.
Your website needs to hold up - not just on launch day, but every day after. When the content editor is using it. When traffic grows. When the business shifts.
I've worked with the web for 27 years, and exclusively with Umbraco for 17 of them. That experience means I know the difference between what looks good in a boardroom and what actually works in production - and I build for the latter.
Good solutions aren't complex for the sake of it. They're clear, well-made, and carefully crafted from end to end - and they stay that way long after the project wraps up.
Specialised in Umbraco
I work exclusively with Umbraco, and have done since 2007. That focus gives depth, perspective, and solutions that hold together from every angle.
Direct collaboration
You work directly with me from first meeting to final delivery. Fewer handoffs, fewer misunderstandings, better solutions.
Experience that shows
Working with the web since 1997 and freelancing since 2010 has taught me when to push for ambition - and when to keep things simple.
Technical Expertise
Everything you need to make Umbraco work harder for your business
I help businesses build, improve, and maintain Umbraco solutions that work in real life. From new websites and migrations to integrations, hosting, and ongoing support.
Advisory and sparring
Before the code gets written, the right decisions need to get made. I help with technical advisory, platform selection, and architecture decisions - either as a second opinion or as an ongoing sparring partner during larger projects.
- Technical due diligence
- Architecture and platform selection
- Sparring on ongoing projects
Umbraco Development
Custom-built websites on a solid technical foundation - with an editor experience that feels considered, not generic. The solution is shaped around your workflows, not the other way around.
- Architecture and backoffice design
- Performance and SEO foundation
- Mobile-first and accessibility
Migration and upgrades
Older Umbraco that needs to catch up with the present? A different platform that needs to move across? I handle migrations from Umbraco 7 onwards, with focus on preserved SEO, clean code, and an editorial workflow that still functions on day one after launch.
- Migration from Umbraco 7 / 8 / 10
- Preserved rankings and URL structure
- Editorial continuity
Integrations
CRM, ERP, PIM, payment, search, AI. When Umbraco needs to talk to other systems, I build integrations that hold up in production - not just in the first demo.
- API development and documentation
- Payment, CRM, ERP, and PIM
- Algolia, Azure Search, OpenAI
Support and maintenance
A website doesn't get better by being forgotten. I handle ongoing maintenance, security updates, and the small improvements that together keep the solution in top form - so you can focus on the business.
- Umbraco and .NET updates
- Security patches and monitoring
- Continuous improvements and optimisation
Hosting
Managed hosting tailored for Umbraco - not a generic hosting package. I handle operations, backup, security, and performance optimisation, so you don't have to coordinate between developer, hosting provider, and support desk when something needs attention.
- Managed hosting dedicated to Umbraco
- Backup, SSL, and security setup
- One point of contact for the entire stack

From people I've worked with
"As part of a technical overhaul of ASE's CMS, Ulrich was brought in to handle the Umbraco side of things. It's clear that Ulrich is more than "just" a back-end developer. He also leans into improvements for the editors, while at the same time having insight into the future direction of the platform. This makes the solutions robust and easy to maintain. The fact that he doesn't drink coffee – well, we'll just have to live with that ;-)"
Shall we have a chat?
If you have an Umbraco project that needs building, improving, upgrading, or simply straightening out a bit, feel free to get in touch. I’m always happy to have an honest conversation about what makes sense, what does not, and where the real value is. That usually saves everyone time, money, and avoidable detours.

From Code to Concert Vibes
When I put Umbraco, architecture, and development aside for a while, I pick up the guitar and hit the stage with Kort Varsel (danish for "short notice").
This is where it is all about the joy of playing, pure energy, and that wonderful feeling when everything lifts. When the chemistry clicks, the rhythm is spot on, and the atmosphere really takes off. It is festive, alive, and exactly as uplifting as music should be.
And honestly, it is not that far from my work as it may sound. I love it when things come together, when the details are sharp, and when the whole thing rises above the sum of its parts. One day in code. The next with a guitar in my hands and 1,000 new friends.
