Questions

What business owners in Hoogeveen ask

Does my shop in Hoogeveen need to sell online too?

Not always. Many shops do well with an address, opening hours and a clear overview of what you sell. An online shop makes sense if you want to reach customers outside Hoogeveen. We host a WordPress online shop, and we migrate an existing shop for free.

I am with another host, can I switch to you?

Yes, we copy your site to our servers for free. The old one stays online until you change the nameservers, and your email comes along. If you are still tied to a yearly contract, the remaining months, up to 9, are free with us through the Switch deal.

Do you also work for a business in Zuidwolde or Dedemsvaart?

Yes, for the whole of the Netherlands. Distance makes no difference, because everything runs over WhatsApp and email. You get an answer from a person, every day between 9:00 and 21:00.

How do I keep my site up to date if I have no time for it?

With the Maintenance add-on we keep the updates and security of your WordPress site up to date. If you want a text or photo replaced now and then, that works with Changes. You send it over WhatsApp, we put it on the site.

Can my email run on my own domain instead of a free address?

Yes, we set that up with the hosting: a mailbox or forwarding on your own domain. An address like [email protected] matches your site and is remembered more easily than a free address with numbers in it.

What does it cost if I need help with my online shop in Hoogeveen?

We work per request. Small changes fall under Changes, while a custom plugin or SEO work is done by the hour. You send a WhatsApp message with what you want, and we tell you how we will handle it.

Example

An example: a bike repairer and his opening hours

An example situation

A bike repairer in Hoogeveen once had his nephew build his site. When he changes his opening hours, he has to wait until the nephew has time, and meanwhile an old time is online. His email still runs through a free address.

He sends us a screenshot on WhatsApp. We migrate the site for free and the old one stays online until the nameservers are switched. His email moves to his own domain, and from now on he sends new opening hours over WhatsApp.
