You just want to get on with what you are doing – not deciphering a lot of IT jargon. I have been working with clients to deliver their IT vision for nearly thirty years and have seen just about everything.
Let me take care of your IT issues.
Web Design
A smart, stylish website is an excellent way to reach potential customers, yet many small businesses still don’t have websites.
“only half of small businesses have a website”
Which is unfortunate as customers are often researching businesses before stepping in the store, or even leaving home.
“60% of customers will stop considering a business if it doesn’t have a website.”
You need an online presence, otherwise your business just does not exist and your customers will go elsewhere.
“More than one quarter (26%) of small businesses without a website cite cost as the key obstacle.”
The latest technologies make creating and hosting a website very cost effective, with most websites costing less then $1000.
Many websites are hard to use when displayed on smart phones and tablets. If your website is not optimised for mobile devices, your customers will move on to a site they can use.
Using the latest responsive design technologies your website will look great and load quickly regardless of the devices your customers are using.
And Google loves mobile friendly websites.
“Google’s Change Will Rank Mobile-Friendly Sites Higher”
Some of the areas I can assist you with are:
- WordPress content management system
- Responsive web design
- Google integration
- Website and Email hosting
- Online shopping and eCommerce
- Social media integration, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Yelp
Let me create a modern, stylish website to your requirements.
Managed WordPress Hosting
If you already have a WordPress website (or are planning one) you need to consider who will be looking after it.
Once your website is online, how do you ensure that it is available and working properly?
Has your website been hacked and delivering malware to your customers?
If your website is not using SSL, from October 2018 visitors to your website will start to see a red ‘not secure’ triangle and Google will derank your website in searches.
You do not want to have to worry about these things – you just want to get on with doing what you do best.
My managed WordPress hosting includes:
- SSL as standard
- Fast, reliable and secure AWS cloud host
- Apache web server with PHP 7 and MySQL 8
- No restrictions on themes or plugins
- Automatic WordPress and server updates
- Intrusion prevention
- Daily backups (including offsite copies)
- Performance monitoring and alerting
- Up time reporting
Let me give your website the care it deserves.
I take security very seriously and so should you.

Reuse is the best form of recycling and while a new machine might be all flashy and fast, there is still life in old machines.
