New website, safe and secure on the backend.
Adjustments made to the front end, and information provided to take this further and to keep updating the website in the future.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Always a quick response (quicker than myself!). Everything was done in a very timely matter and they showed patience while I was thinking about some of my choices, there wasn't a constant email follow-up which I like. It made it feel more organic and less like they just wanted to get the job out of the way.

Nope, keep doing what you do :)

Sven and his team delivered exactly what they promised: a fully functionable website built for my business for free. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop and for surprise charges to be sprung on me, but that never happened. There was the option to go for paid versions and templates, but it wasn't obligatory; and even the paid templates were really well priced (I went with all the free versions though myself).
