COMPUTER TECH SUPPORT & INTERNET SERVICES  

A Site To Behold (TM)

Toronto • 416-398-TALK (8255)

Toll Free • 1-866-877-TALK (8255)

We make websites. Inexpensively. In fact, they cost so little that virtually anyone who wants one can have one. Our sites look professional, yet download quickly.

The above-linked site serves two purposes. First, it dispels several common myths about the Internet. Second, it serves as an example of our INTERMEDIATE format and links to our ECONOMY format. We also offer a third, DELUXE, format of which the present site is an example.

Many sites contain graphics, but usually they make downloading painfully slow. Click to see how we incorporate graphics without substantially increasing download time.

Some have asked whether we provide Internet connectivity: we regret that we do not provide this type of service.

We want to help you establish a presence on the web. Some developers earn their living by performing tasks their customers could very easily do themselves. Our philosophy is simple. Do what you can on your own. It's enjoyable and relatively easy. You save money and avoid becoming unnecessarily dependent. What you can't do or don't have time to do, we'll be happy to do for you.
