About Hanseatic Media Harbour

Hanseatic Media Harbour GmbH, or HMH, is an owner-run digital agency in Hamburg. It is registered at the Hamburg local court under HRB 162781. Its current address is Charlie-Mills-Straße 3, 22159 Hamburg. It previously had an office on Katharinenstraße. Tobias Preis founded the company in 2020 and runs it as managing partner and project lead. He trained as a digital and print media designer and frontend developer. He started working with TYPO3 in 2008 and spent several years at Hamburg agencies before going independent.

The agency specialises in the TYPO3 content management system. It is a Silver Member of the TYPO3 Association. The team includes developers, designers and three content and SEO staff. The agency also uses regular freelancers and partner agencies when projects need more capacity, and the team has over 30 years of combined TYPO3 experience.

Its services cover strategy and concept, TYPO3 builds, migrations and upgrades, web design and UX, SEO and performance, accessibility under Germany's BFSG law, AI search and assistants, and ongoing maintenance. Its SEO work is mostly technical: site structure, indexing, redirects and load times. It also writes or revises SEO texts and builds campaign landing pages on request, and promotes a service for visibility in AI search. It does not run local SEO, Google Business Profile management or review programmes, so a dental practice would need another provider for map rankings.

Its project management is detailed. Each project starts with a kickoff to agree goals, workflows, milestones and approvals. Every site gets its own test environment, and code is tracked in GitLab. An internal app flags TYPO3 and security updates, and monitored systems send automatic alerts. Implementation errors are fixed at no extra cost. Changes in scope are raised before work starts.

Most clients are public bodies and mid-sized firms. They include HafenCity Universität Hamburg, Handwerkskammer Hamburg, Stiftung Historische Museen Hamburg, Lange Nacht der Museen, Weissenhäuser Strand and Zimmer + Rohde. Clients also include Nordmark Pharma and Firstmedica, but no dental or medical practice. Seven Google reviews from 2020 to 2022 average 5.0. Reviewers mention a relaxed, competent team, met deadlines, transparent project management, a fixed contact person and fair prices.

Prices depend on scope. A TYPO3 relaunch usually starts from EUR 10,000 net, and compact sites are quoted individually. Work is billed as a fixed price or as time and materials, with optional support contracts for ongoing care. The first consultation and quote are free, and no down payment is required. Instalments and financing are not offered.
