Top Questions from Clients
Here to answer any/all questions. Here are a few top ones to get you started.
Your requirements and business needs are unique. So my approach will vary accordingly. Most commonly I will approach as follows:
Initial meeting: Let's make sure I'm the right fit for your needs. I'll also use this time to make sure that I'm able to deliver on what you're looking for (no empty promises).
Design: I'll put together a proposed solution to meet the needs of what you're looking for. This allows you to feel confident as we approach the situation together and put you back in the driver's seat. Remember, it's your business, so let's make sure it's the right direction for what you.
Implementation: Building out the solution. This comes in many forms including training, software development, mediation (between multiple parties) and more.
Support: Short, medium or long term support as required.
If your website has stops working, or is having errors there can be a range of solutions. As an starting checklist:
Don't wait: Timeliness is key. The longer you wait the harder it is to recovery a lost website and/or domain.Review Recent Changes: Think about any recent updates or changes made to the website. Reverting those changes might resolve the issue.
Call your hosting provider: It might be a simple fix that they can resolve over the phone.
Check for known outages: If your website is inaccessible, it might be because your website hosting is down. Check with your hosting provider.
Clear Cache: Clear your browser cache and try accessing the website again. If unsure, another way to test this is to use a private/incognito window.
Contact Anthony: If you get stuck, reach out and I'll be happy to help. I work full time, so support is exclusively after hours, which might be the type of help you need.
Most likely, yes. At this point in my career I've supported almost any API setup that you might need. Some common ones I work with include:
Payment Gateways: Stripe, Xero and eWay
Analytics: Google Analytics, Google Search Console and DataStudio
CRM: Hubspot, Salesforce
eCommerce: Shopify, WooCommerce, Drupal
No-Code: Zapier, Make.com
Cloud: Azure, Google, AWS
Other: Mailchimp, iOS & Android
If it's not listed here, let me know as I can probably work with it anyway, as most APIs follow a similar setup and usage process.
Pricing can vary. Hourly rate services can range from $100-400 per hour (depending on location, time and urgency).
Most services however are fixed cost and quoted prior to the service commencement.
I'm work full time as a development lead in Gold Coast, QLD. As I work full time, my support is limited to after hours only.
Under some circumstances I'm able to work around these requirements but assume that this isn't the case.
