Web Development & Hosting
Your website is part of your IT. It shares a domain with your email and runs on a server somebody has to keep current. We build and run it alongside everything else we manage, so one team answers for all of it.
Signs Your Website Needs Attention
Your website was built by someone who has moved on, and nobody is sure who updates it or where it's hosted.
If any of these describe your business, this service is usually the right place to start.
- Nobody on staff knows where your website is hosted or who has the login.
- Your WordPress site hasn't been updated in months.
- You need a client portal or an internal tool that off-the-shelf software doesn't cover.
- Your website and your email are run by different vendors, and each one points at the other when something breaks.
Benefits of Having Your IT Provider Run Your Website
- One company answers for your website, your email and the domain they share.
- WordPress, its plugins and the server underneath them are kept current.
- Changes to the site go through people who already know your business.
- Your domain, hosting and site logins are documented and owned by your business.
How We Build and Support Business Websites
We build business websites on WordPress, so your staff can update pages and posts without calling anyone. When a site needs logins, records or a process of its own, we build a custom web application for it.
Hosting and security come with the site. We keep WordPress, its plugins and the server current, back the site up and watch for problems, so an outdated plugin doesn't become the way into your business.
If we already manage your IT, the website stops sitting apart from everything else. The domain, the email records and the site logins are documented with the rest of your systems.
What Our Web Development Services Include
WordPress websites
Business sites your staff can edit themselves, built around what the site has to do. See WordPress websites.
Custom web applications
Client portals and internal tools for work that off-the-shelf software doesn't cover. Our custom web applications page has the details.
Website hosting
Your site hosted on servers we manage, with backups and updates handled as part of the service. See website hosting and security.
Website security
Updates, certificates and locked-down logins, so the site isn't the easiest way into your business. Our free website security score shows where yours stands today.
Domain and DNS
Your domain and the email records that depend on it, managed in one place. The free email domain security score checks how those records look now.
Ongoing changes
New pages, content updates and fixes, handled by people who already know the site.
How a Website Project Works, Step by Step
- We agree on what the site has to doWho it's for, what it needs to say and what it connects to, such as a contact form or a client portal. That's written down before anything is built.
- We build it on the right platformMost business websites belong on WordPress, which your staff can edit. A site that has to handle logins, records or a process of its own becomes a custom web application.
- We launch it without breaking your emailDomain and DNS changes are planned so mail keeps flowing through the move, which is where a website launch most often causes trouble.
- We host it and keep it currentUpdates, certificates, backups and monitoring carry on after launch through website hosting and security.
Website Security Is Part of Cybersecurity
Outdated WordPress plugins are one of the most common ways business websites get compromised. A compromised site can also be used to send phishing that appears to come from your own domain.
That's why our website work is tied to our cybersecurity services and to the email security that protects the same domain.
Websites that collect client information can fall under CMMC and HIPAA compliance rules in some industries. When a site needs AI built into it, that work follows the same data rules as our Copilot and AI services.

Web Development and Hosting FAQ
Do you build on WordPress or write custom code?
Both. Most business websites belong on WordPress, because your staff can edit them and the platform is well supported. When a site needs user accounts, stored records or a workflow of its own, we build a custom web application instead.
Can you take over a website someone else built?
Yes. We start by finding out where it's hosted, who holds the logins and what's out of date. Then we tell you what we'd fix first.
Who owns the website and the domain?
You do. The domain is registered to your business, and the logins are documented and handed to you.
Can the website connect to our other systems?
Usually, yes. Forms can feed your email or your CRM, and a custom application can read from systems you already use, including Microsoft 365. We'll tell you during planning what connects easily and what doesn't.
