What you need

When you work alone, the site has to work with you

  1. If you work alone in Gooise Meren, you have no time for a website that demands attention. That is why Maintenance and Changes exist: you do your job, we keep WordPress up to date and make small changes. Add a WhatsApp button and replying is one tap for a customer.

  2. Average income per resident is higher here than nationally, at 47.3 thousand euro in 2024 according to CBS, against 34.9 thousand. At a higher price level people look for trust first: a real photo of yourself, a clear address and an email address that matches your name.

Example

An example: quotes that end up in spam

An example situation

A self-employed organisational adviser in Gooise Meren sends his quotes from a free email address. A few land in the recipient's spam and then he hears nothing more. That costs assignments. His site is with a host whose password he no longer knows.

From Gooise Meren he sends us a screenshot of the login screen over WhatsApp. We migrate the site for free, the old one stays online until he changes the nameservers himself, and from now on his email runs through his own domain.

Already with another host? We migrate your website for free.

  • We do the work, you don't have to do anything technical.
  • Your old site stays online until you switch.
  • No setup fees.

Questions

Questions from business owners in Gooise Meren

Can I arrange everything from Gooise Meren without meeting up?

Yes. You send a WhatsApp message or an email, a person answers and you simply pass on files or login details. Migration, domain and email all happen online, so there is no need for a meeting.

I am a freelancer in Gooise Meren, do I need my own email address?

Yes, that is smart. An address on your own domain looks more serious than a free address and is less likely to end up in a client's spam. We set it up with the hosting.

I have a shop in Naarden, what happens to my online shop if I switch host?

Nothing, we do that. We copy the shop to our servers for free and the old one stays online until you change the nameservers. Orders keep coming in as normal during the switch.

My financial advice practice in Gooise Meren uses a contact form, is that secure enough?

The form runs over a secure SSL connection, which we take care of. Ask in the form only for what you really need. The text of your privacy statement stays with you.

Can you also arrange my domain name?

Yes, we register domain names. If you already have one, we leave it where it is or move it along. It stays registered in your name.

How do I get from a free email address to one on my business name?

You choose a name, we create the mailbox or a forwarding address and set it up in your email app or phone. If you already have a mailbox elsewhere, your existing email moves along.
