The numbers do not say that. They only count how many people are self-employed. Start small: a domain, an email address and a site of one or two pages. The rest can come later.
Yes. The form runs over SSL and we take care of secure email. What you ask and store falls under your own privacy policy. We handle the technology around it.
Yes, if it is a WordPress site, a PHP site or a static site. A large platform with its own software is outside what we host. We first discuss what you use, so you know where you stand.

Example
An example situation
As a self-employed teacher he gives lessons at people's homes in Zwolle, and he now gets new students through loose messages. He wants one page with his offer, times and a sign-up form.
He sends us his text over WhatsApp. We set up a small WordPress site, register the domain and set up his email. He adjusts the times himself, or he sends them to us and we do it with Changes. If there is still a site with another host, we migrate it for free, and if a contract is still running there, the Switch deal covers it.
