Web Design & Development and Hosting For Small Business

Web Design & Development

You have a business to run, but you keep getting stuck in the website management maze. Wouldn’t it be nice to get everything your website needs in one place?

There is no doubt that you know, having a website means there is ongoing work to do; plugins, subscriptions, hosting, security issues, errors, and uptime. I could go on and on and on. I didn’t even add all of the issues with design and development!

You can do it yourself. In fact, many people and businesses do. However, many times what happens is…. it just doesn’t get done. Your website’s performance tweaks don’t get done, plugins don’t get updated, and content doesn’t display correctly. Worse, your site might get hacked due to terrible hosting, or out-of-date software. When, and I do mean WHEN something goes wrong it becomes a huge pain and takes tons of time because the site owner is on their own when they do it theirself.

Also, there is a plethora of plugins needed for your website to be an asset to your business not just a digital work of art. With all of these plugins, there runs the risk they don’t all play nicely together. Then you end up holding it all together with bailing wire and duct tape!

I realize with the multitude of plugins, the ongoing maintenance, and occasional errors or issues that business owners can easily get drawn away from their business maintaining and fixing their website, or their website just gets neglected… I am sure you have seen plenty of websites you can clearly tell haven’t seen an update in 10 years!

I wanted to provide something that solved these issues for business owners.

As a Concierge Hosting client

Smith Sites (Me) will not only maintain your website but design and develop it too! I will be your webmaster, designer, and website consultant. When you need something done, you just have to ask we do web design & development for you. Plus, you don’t even need to ask for everything. I’ll keep the back-end stuff running like a kitten. I’ll do the tweaks, I’ll make sure everything is smooth.

My site is very well done

The process was incredibly simple and streamlined. Communication was incredibly responsive, and questions and issues were taken care of very quickly. The whole process was easy and enjoyable. My site is intuitive and simple. It is obvious that a lot of thought was put into the layout and operation, everything works flawlessly. Everyone thinks that is well-planned and easy to use. It is simple and easy to navigate. Everything works the way that it should! Exceptional. Websites in my same industry are far worse with poor layouts and very little detail. My site is very well done.

You get the following benefits

Total Site Maintenance

No need to worry about the updates that are constantly required… I’ll take care of that. I also ensure visual testing and personal visits to your site to ensure nothing is broken during updates!

Security

Your website will get the security it needs. Daily malware scans and immediate fixes if needed. A firewall to shield your server from hackers/boots and other bad actors. All the threats will be blocked or corrected in a rapid manner.

Fully Managed VPS Hosting

Your site will not have to share resources like a kinder sharing crayons. Everything is dedicated just to your business. No need to deal with pesky shared hosting. Your server will always have enough resources for your customers.

Full Site Backup

I back your website up every day! I ensure it can be restored should anything bad happen. Your site is backed up and I ensure it stays running the way it should!

Access to Agency Plugin Bundle

There are so many different plugins needed to operate a website for a small business. With our agency bundle, you get access to high-quality software without the hassle of multiple subscription fees. Also, you don’t need to research if they work together.

Unlimited Design Updates

Whether it’s a quick edit or a new page we will begin and implement it. No need to hire a designer, a developer, or a webmaster. You get unlimited updates for your web design & development for as long as you host with Smith Sites.

Hosting Support

I will handle whatever comes up with your hosting! You have no worries, you are not stuck figuring out some stupid DNS setting or stuck waiting for live chat support! I’ll deal with any issues that happen… You will just know that it just works.

Privacy Friendly Analytics

Google Analytics isn’t really free! They spy on your customer’s data, on your data, and on your site for their own purposes. As a client of Smith Sites, we will set up a privacy-first analytics solution with a simple dashboard.

Peace Of Mind

Hosting with Smith Sites, you have peace of mind. You know that your site is working and will continue to work. You also know that you can change your designer at any time without hiring a designer, just to change a border.

But Why!…

Save Money

You don’t need to piecemeal everything together. Avoid having to track and pay multiple subscriptions. You will get access to some of the best software on the market.

Communication

You and I will have an easy time communicating. I try to be straight to the point while being friendly. I have been all over and I am sure we will get along great!

Less Hassle

You will not be alone in figuring everything out. If you have any questions, I’m here- just ask. You can focus on your business and life, not your website.

Less Confusion

I try to keep everything as simple as possible! Let me deal with the complicated stuff and make it simple for you! Not that you can’t deal with it, but why should you?

Focus

Don’t get stuck in the technical weeds of your website. Let me help you with this so you can focus on your business.

Trust

I treat your website like I treated my own. I only do what is in the best interest of you and your site. If you or I think you are better served elsewhere, I’ll help the transition. I don’t want to hold you hostage!

But How Much Is This?

I appreciate the budget and cost-saving-minded people out there… I’m one of you! There are two or three very different options and they all vary in cost.

Highering a full-time designer or developer… Well, that will cost you! A senior designer is over $100k USD a year… A Year!!! And do you have enough work to keep that designer or developer busy for a full year?

$100k a year, well that is probably out of the question, and if it’s not then any solution I can offer with Smith Sites is probably not for you. Next would be a dedicated design service such as Design Joy that comes in at a whopping $4,995 a month.

If you are a Premium Concierge Hosting client then not only do you get web design & development, updates to those designs and hosting, you also get copywriting.
