A website developed by Marbella-based design studio We Design Marbella has been highlighted for its relatively low environmental impact following an analysis by the Website Carbon Calculator.
According to the assessment published on the platform, the website wedesignmarbella.com demonstrates an efficient digital footprint compared with many websites online. The tool estimates how much carbon dioxide is produced each time a webpage loads, based on factors such as page size, data transfer, and energy used by hosting infrastructure.
The Website Carbon rating system evaluates websites using a scale from A+ (most efficient) to F (highest emissions), helping developers and businesses understand the environmental impact of their digital presence. Website Carbon Calculator compares a site’s emissions to the global average for web pages to determine its rating.
The site wedesignmarbella.com belongs to a freelance web designer based in Marbella who focuses on creating fast, responsive, and SEO-optimized WordPress websites for local businesses such as real estate agencies, restaurants, and vacation rental companies along the Costa del Sol.
As awareness of the environmental impact of digital infrastructure grows, sustainable web design is becoming an increasingly important topic within the industry. Experts note that reducing page weight, optimizing images and scripts, and using efficient hosting can significantly lower the carbon footprint of websites while improving performance for users.
The evaluation highlights how performance-focused web design not only improves speed and usability but can also contribute to a more sustainable internet.
