Services

There’s a lot of free advice for you in my Website Owners Guide, and on my blog.

However, there are many things that may require the “personal touch” to cover issues relating to your particular circumstances.

I can help you with this by phone, email, or in person according to your needs. Sometimes you might just need just need a quick response to a question.

Or if you need some personal assistance to show you how to do something, a face to face meeting would probably be more effective.

I’ve had over ten years experience helping small business owners use the internet, and have seen and solved just about every problem that it’s possible to encounter.

The information on the Internet Bloke website is for people who:

  • Want to learn how an online business is put together, but get their own technical people or web developer to do the actual work.
  • Want to build their online business themselves, and need help to make the right decisions.
  • Need advice or help with improving their existing websites.

Why not pick my brains, instead of spinning your wheels?

I offer you the following services:

Emergency Response Service

If your website has stopped working, or if you are experiencing
some other disaster.

I’ll find the cause of the problems you are experiencing, and tell you what needs to be done to fix
it.

Fee: $250.

The Internet Bloke in your Pocket

  • Sometimes you could waste hours of time on something that can be solved by talking to an expert for a few minutes.
  • Or sometimes you need to make a decision on an important matter, but don’t have enough information to decide what to do.
  • Or maybe you need a second opinion about something you have been advised to do.

I can offer you phone or email support for all of the issues covered in my Website Owners Guide, and on my blog.
(One of my clients saved over $12,000 after a five minute conversation with me, so the right advice when you need it can be extremely valuable)

  • Email Support: $67 per month.
    I will respond to your email messages within 1 business day.
  • Phone and Email Support: $127 per month. You can contact me between 9am and 9pm, Monday to Saturday Australian Eastern Standard Time (GMT +10)
    This is a priority service, and I will generally respond to your emails and phone calls immediately.
  • (Note: This service is offered on a month by month basis, and may be withdrawn at any time. )

“Everybody” tells you it’s “dead easy” to set up a WordPress website using Fantastico, which installs the plain vanilla version of WordPress for you in a few minutes.

Well, Everybody lies. It’s NOT dead easy.

You need to do quite a bit of additional work after Fantastico has done its work of installing the program and setting up the databases. And if you’ve had no webmaster experience, it could take you days to get it right. If ever.

If you need some help, I recommend this series of  very good, very cheap WordPress Videos.

They cover all you need to know to become a very competent WordPress user.

If you’d rather run your business than learn how to wrestle with WordPress websites, I can provide you with 12 months web hosting,  install a WordPress website with several themes and useful plugins for $396.  Contact me for details.

A Day with the Internet Bloke.

I’ll come and spend the day with you* – and help you do anything related to setting up your internet business.

For example, we could:

  • Brainstorm and register a great domain name
  • Create some graphics for your website
  • Install a fully operational WordPress website
  • Add some content, and I’ll show you how to drive it.

Or if you’re happy with your website we could work out and implement an email strategy – or set up a completely automatic system that will build your mailing list so that you can keep in touch with your clients.

You could even get a small group together and split the costs if there are some common topics that you all want to cover.

(* – Includes travel up to 50km from Hobart, Tasmania. If you are further away, travel and/or accommodation can be negotiated. Broadband access would generally be required.)
