The Free Website Guys

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the CEO of Pure Systems Inc and we are independent distributors for the Ritello Home Maintenance product line.

For what projects/services did your company hire The Free Website Guys, and what were your goals?

I have developed numerous websites over the past 30+ years using various development teams and spending tens of thousands of dollars. Spent hours (if not many days) going back and forth with developers trying to program the look and feel and function of websites. It always took too long, and cost too much to get it right.

Then I tried thefreewebsiteguys. And you might be skeptical, but don’t be. For people like me that don’t speak ones and zeros or interpret a website like the free falling code in The Matrix this is for you! You can actually design from the front end artistically. Mic drop! Make changes any time in the future if needed. Can I get an “Amen?” And then have thefreewebsiteguysguys do the technical stuff on the back end. “Testify!” Insert mind blown emoji!

After you get your free website run (don’t walk away) because you just got a steal! Seriously, I got a website that was beyond all expectations for FREE! I am not joking!

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

It was by complete chance I found them.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

First we had an initial introduction explaining what they do, how they do it and why. Then they sent me some videos with step by step instructions. Was a piece of cake really. I did what they said, swapped out some pictures and text. They sent me some follow up videos and cleaned up my work to make it perfect and voila. They said thanks for allowing us to develop your website. Voila!

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Mainly one but some of the tutorial vids were by different people.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

The product turned out clean and crisp and spot on. It was fast! This went way beyond expectations. You feel like you found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I’m like a kid that you can tell just had chocolate ice cream because it’s all over his smile. This was such a blessing at the right time for us.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Excellent!

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They create value and deliver. Period. Full stop.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Working with the Free Website Guys was a really great experience. As a small business owner, I knew what I wanted but I didn't have the ability to pay thousands of dollars for a new site...so when I heard that I had been approved for one I thought it was too good to be true. Sven and his team were so helpful in finding the best template for my business, and giving me all the resources I needed to create the website of my dreams.

Anytime I had a question they were there to answer it, honestly I was shocked at the level of customer service they provided while providing a free service. I am ecstatic about the end result and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone in need of a new website!

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

I searched online for web developers and came across the Free Website Guys. I spent a few days looking at the work they did and contemplated the idea of working with them. Based on their previous work, I could tell they valued what they did, so I decided to work with them.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

My experience with Sven and The Free Website Guys was extremely rewarding! I had an irrational fear around the idea of creating a website for my business and had convinced myself that I did not need one at all (rather than go through the process of having one created).

However, Sven and his team made the entire procedure painless AND I felt empowered to personalize my website after they created the main theme/structure. The videos they shared were very helpful and the step-by-step instructions aided me when adding content, graphics, and images to my website.

I am now equipped to maintain the website and I actually have been enjoying the process so far. THANKS again, Sven and The Free Website Guys, for helping me achieve this monumental task!

Please describe your company and your position there.

Parole-4-Maine is a diverse team of Maine citizens who see how the current prison system falls short of protecting our communities and who believe deeply in the human capacity for change. We believe that an earned path to reintegration will make our communities safer and reduce the costs of recidivism.

For what projects/services did your company hire The Free Website Guys, and what were your goals?

Maine abolished Parole in 1976. Since then, prisoners in Maine have not had an opportunity to earn a second chance at reintegration into society through active rehabilitation.

Today, by not affording rewards for rehabilitation, the criminal legal system disincentivizes personal transformation, which ultimately risks the perpetuation of harm through recidivism (returning to prison after release). We hired The Free Website Guys to help meet this need.

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

They reached out via LinkedIn and we connected through mutual benefit and purpose.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
