That is the (big) question! In an increasingly digital world, having a website is no longer an option, but a necessity.

Holidays are a great opportunity to rediscover the balance between the digital and real worlds. In an increasingly interconnected landscape, it's interesting to see how digital habits shape the holiday experience. This article explores these habits and reflects on our own digital break: our blog is going on holiday!

Today, we shine a spotlight on someone who usually prefers to stay behind the scenes. In this week’s edition of The Interview Diaries, it’s time to get to know our CTO and founder, Nuno Portela, a little better. Calm, discreet, and naturally gifted at solving any kind of problem, be it code, office logistics, or gardening, Nuno is the kind of person who can build software from scratch and also create 3D renders of the new office layout. 

It wasn’t exactly your typical summer postcard setting. The sky was heavy, a light drizzle threatened to ruin our plans, and the Tagus didn’t exactly look like it was on holiday. But some things not even bad weather can stop — and one of them is the Softway team’s determination to have fun together.

Skeuomorphism. The word sounds like something you'd hear in a dermatology textbook, or maybe a dark spell from a Defence Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts. But it’s actually a technical term tied to a deeply human instinct: the desire, or impulse to make the digital feel physical, real, almost touchable.

In this week's Interview Diaries I introduce you to our Finance expert. With a degree in Accounting and a career in Finance, our tapioca specialist dreamed as a teenager of working at McDonald's, but as fate would have it, she came to Softway.

When it comes to search engine optimisation (SEO), one question often sparks debate: what matters more – Technical SEO or Content SEO?

“Content is king.” We’ve heard it so often it almost feels cliché. But in 2025, with AI-generated articles flooding the internet, SEO strategies obsessively chasing keywords, and countless blogs regurgitating the same tips, trends, and “10-step guides,” the question arises: if content is king, why does it all sound the same?

Back to the Interview Diaries, I present to you Maria Callapez. Throughout 2025, the talented DJ joins Softway. From mixing tables to graphic design for websites, she joins the team not to play music, but to dedicate herself to the art of creating graphic mockups and web moods for websites and landing pages.
