Hi, I'm Chris
I've worked in IT for over 20 years, mostly with databases and reporting. I live in Christchurch and started building websites for my own church and for friends' businesses.
I keep things simple: a clean, fast site that tells your customers what they need to know and works well on their phones. You deal with one person from start to finish, and you always get a straight answer.
Good to know
Do I need to know anything technical?
No. You tell me about your business in plain words and send a few photos. I do the rest, including the web address and hosting.
Who owns the website?
You do. The web address is registered in your name, and if you ever want to move on I hand everything over.
What if I need changes later?
Small changes like new hours, menus or prices are included in the care plan. Bigger additions are quoted up front.
Can you help a club or church on a tight budget?
Yes. Get in touch and tell me what you need. Community groups are where I started.
Let's talk about your website
Send me an email with a little about your business. I'll get back to you within a day or two, with no obligation.
