web design and IT support in Liphook
Twenty-five minutes down the A3, on the Hampshire side of the border.
About twenty-five minutes down the A3.
Liphook is small, well connected and full of businesses that serve a wider area than the village itself: professional practices, trades and consultancies that happen to be based here rather than aimed only at here. That matters for the website, because being found for "in Liphook" is rarely the whole job.
Burley Geach Solicitors, whose offices sit along this stretch of the border, are the work on this site closest to home for Liphook: a WordPress rebuild for the firm's 125th year, with the timeline, the staff profiles and the careers pages all written as bespoke plugins for that firm rather than licensed ones bent to fit.
The practical offer here is the same as everywhere on this border: build it properly, host it somewhere that answers the phone, keep it patched, and be close enough to turn up when turning up is the only thing that will do.

Website rebuild for the firm's 125th year
A WordPress site that had not been modernised in a decade, rebuilt on Elementor and ACF Pro for the firm's 125th year, with the timeline, profiles and careers pages built bespoke rather than bought in.

WordPress Design
Most WordPress sites are a bought theme with somebody else's logo swapped out. Yours gets designed around what you actually need to say, and built so that changing it afterwards does not mean ringing me.
more about thisManaged WordPress
Updates, backups and security handled on a schedule, rather than the week after something goes wrong. Changes get tried on a staging copy first, so the live site is never the experiment.
more about thisDomain Names
Domains in one place, renewed before they lapse rather than after. SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up properly, which is the difference between your email arriving and your email landing in spam.
more about thisMaintenance & Support
The work nobody notices until it has not been done. Updates tested before they go live, monitoring that tells me before it tells you, and a monthly note saying what actually happened.

We serve a wider area than the village. Should the site say Liphook at all?
Say where you are, then say where you work. Hiding the base reads as evasive, and local search needs a real address to attach you to anyway.
Who owns the domain name?
You should, and it is worth checking: domains registered by a previous developer in their own account are the single most common nasty surprise in this job. I can move them into your name and keep them renewed.
What happens if you are unavailable?
Support is covered while I am away, through MFC IT Services, who I have worked alongside for years. The only thing waiting for me to get back is my inbox.
