Netz-und-Co.de and Media-Dogs.de
In 2013, I founded my company Netz&Co, with the goal of enabling even inexperienced and non-technical individuals to have a professional online presence.
In addition to my company Netz&Co, I founded the project Media-Dogs.de. Here, I offer the same services, but entirely tailored to the needs of the canine industry.
Who Are My Clients?
Breeders of various dog breeds have a high demand for individual yet affordable websites to professionally showcase their show dogs and achievements, without enduring long waiting times or having to delve deeply into the technical aspects.
My CMS is WordPress
In my opinion, a homepage does not need to be elaborately designed. It is more important that it contains the most crucial information and is well-organized.
It was important to me that the websites themselves are easy to maintain and appear significantly more individual than the numerous modular website builders available.
It quickly became clear that in most cases, I would rely on WordPress. WordPress combines a clear and simple backend structure with a variety of extensive templates that offer ample room for design and individual customization.
Managed WordPress Hosting
It is very important to me that my clients’ websites, as well as my own, function reliably. My clients come from various sectors and want an “all-round carefree package.” They want their website to function smoothly and not have to deal with technical details. Through SaaS Web, I can offer my clients this service and always have a competent contact person available.
Why SaaS Web?
For my clients, I was quickly looking for a reliable service provider in the area of hosting and WordPress services. Through mutual contacts, I became aware of SaaS Web.
SaaS Web provides a pre-installed WordPress installation, intelligently pre-configured with its own admin user – this way, I can utilize all WordPress functions, ensuring no limitations for developing individual websites for my clients.
SaaS Web handles the maintenance of the software (core updates) as well as plugins and themes. Care is always taken to ensure that the updated components function correctly.
I particularly appreciate the free use of a test environment during the creation of the website for my client. After approval by my client, SaaS Web migrates the site to the client’s domain free of charge.
But in addition to the advantage of not having to take on admin tasks, I value the easy communication and direct connection to the friendly team.
Excerpt from my references:
How I Acquire Clients
Typically, my clients approach me because they have become aware of my work through previous projects.
My straightforward offers quickly help potential clients find their way. In a phone call or personal meeting, I inquire in detail about the content to be integrated into the new homepage, which images should be used, and naturally provide extensive consultation on these matters.
The offer package always includes hosting – an all-round carefree package that my clients greatly appreciate.
This is how a typical client project proceeds:
(1) After the order is placed, SaaS Web creates a dedicated test environment for the new website, where I can install a suitable theme and customize it according to my specifications.
(2) The test environment also offers the advantage that I can calmly enter the details and present them to the client for progress updates and final approval.
(3) After this final approval, the website can go live. There are two variants.
(4a) Either the client did not yet have a domain, in which case SaaS Web reserves it, and the status of the test environment is migrated to the new domain.
(4b) The second possibility is that the client already has a website that they wish to update. In this case, SaaS Web handles the domain migration from the external host. The client only needs to request the Authcode and forward it to me. Shortly thereafter, the new website can go online.
(5) Of course, the SaaS Web team is always available to provide advice.
