Building the Apdaigaiou.gov.gr Website
At WebMate we carried out and completed the rebuild of the website of the Decentralized Administration of the Aegean. The website is designed around the WCAG 2.0 standards, ensuring full accessibility for people with disabilities. The bilingual platform, in Greek and English, lets a wider audience navigate and interact with the content. During the rebuild we made sure every article from the previous website was transferred smoothly, while the redesigned content search makes browsing simple and easy for citizens. A distinctive feature of the website is the colour coding of announcements by category, which helps users quickly find the updates that matter to them. The website was designed by our close partner, Tooman Design, and the development was handled by the WebMate team.

Responsive Design, Speed and Interactivity
The speed of a website and how well it works on every screen are core principles for us, so we give them particular attention to achieve the best possible result. We also created an interactive map that improves the visitor experience: each area and each island becomes a gateway to its own set of information, bringing users closer to what they are looking for.
Accessibility for People with Disabilities and SEO
It was important for the website to meet the accessibility standards for people with disabilities set out in WCAG 2.0 so that people with any kind of disability can access it easily. The website has also been designed and developed in full compliance with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This means every process, from data collection and processing to storage and security, has been handled to the strictest standard, keeping users’ information safe and protected.
