Web design and ecommerce solutions for web sites has never been a major interest of ours, shareware programming has always been our aim.
However recently we came across a small shopkeeper who had in our opinion been badly conned with his web site design.
He had been charged £1,500 which is not at all bad, but what he got was a web site on poor hosting, which he could not hope to maintain and his online shop was totally broken.
The same company offered to create a proper ecommerce solution for £16,000!
One hell of a lot of money cosidering what is actually involved, which may come down to a few days of effort by a competant programmer.
We did a little good samaritan act and at least got his site working for him, for rather less than would get a plumber out of bed!
The situation got us thinking though, there may well be other people in the same boat in our local area, Swindon, Bristol, Wilshire etc in England. If you are in the same sort of situation and need help, contact us at support@marsjupiter.com and you can deal with people who try and see you right. We won't promise to do the job for practically nothing as we did out of outrage the first time round, but we can promise a fair price from people with some business ethics. If you are further afield then still feel free to contact us if you need advice, but as onsite help and support is important, we would need to consider whether we could do well for you.
