Web dev is an industry which has been growing ever closer to the end user over its evolution. The complexities of the issue have slowly dropped away to the point where Open Source (free) software and exceptionally secure hosting packages are enabling small business to get online securely, safely, and globally for a fraction of the price of the corporate solutions offered just a few years ago.

All web presentations are tested against the rendering vagaries of all valid browser platforms at the time of implementation. That is - we'll browse your site using IE7, IE 8 (all modes), Safari, Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome production and beta products (all modes) on Windows XP SP3, Vista Ultimate and Windows 7, to ensure all your clients are able to benefit from the full functionality of your site. Our presentations are backward compatibile with IE6, but due to the uncommonly inept display of coding that it represents, we ensure that anyone browsing your site with IE6 is presented with a graphic (easily toggled off) which educates them toward a better internet experience with an upgraded product.
