flexible web design for the small business or organization
Web design,
hosting and e-commerce
I used to be an ICT teacher in secondary schools. Three years ago I took early retirement to concentrate on web and print design, photography and IT consultancy and training. I soon discovered there was a real need for a local, friendly, web design service for small businesses, and have been kept very busy ever since.
My wide overview of IT, my skills in design and programming, my previous experience as a professional photographer and my low overheads put me in a unique position to offer a highly professional, low-cost, e-commerce web presence to local businesses.
And 14 years as a self employed businessman help me to provide you with a web site that not only looks good but really works commercially.
If you have been thinking about a web presence for your business but thought it was too expensive, too time-consuming, or the off-the-peg packages too inflexible, I might be able to help.
I can set up domain names and email addresses as part of the set-up fee (plus any domain name registration charges).
If you do not have your own, I can produce logos and other artwork and take any photographs you need.
I can also produce printed material, brochures, mail shots, etc to tie in with your web site.
I can host and maintain your site for a small monthly fee. You will have unlimited space and bandwidth, unlimited emails and your own control panel so you can take complete control over your site at any time.
Selling on-line
Setting up a site for selling online is not necessarily as expensive as you might think. If you are a small business and only have a small range of products for sale, you can securely accept Visa and Mastercard without the need for Merchant Services, and it can be done for a small set up fee and no extra monthly charges at all. This means that you can test the waters of ecommerce without getting your feet wet.
What it costs
The cost will, of course, vary, depending on how many pages you need, whether you want to sell on-line, how many items you want to sell, how much you want to rely on Flash movies and dynamic databases and whether you want photography and artwork produced or already have your own.
Whatever your requirements, you will get a tailor made solution that is unique to your business - yet at prices that are competitive with off the shelf packages.

Allow everyone to see a web photo gallery of your function, party, corporate event, sports event, amateur or professional dramatics, etc etc, just an hour or two after the event.
Guests, participants, etc, can view the photos on-line, download to their own computer and even print out the images.
The site can be password protected if required so only those with permission can see the photos.
It costs from £60 to attend a function for up to an hour, take professional quality photographs and produce the web pages within two hours (up to about 100 images).
The images are hosted by myself and will remain available for a month (longer by arrangement).
Professionally printed archive quality prints up to A4 can be ordered on line.
By the way, I live in the Forest of Dean/Lower Wye Valley area of the UK. Travel to other areas would be extra.
