A Geek to Call Your Own

My name is Jonathan Michaels and I'll be your personal nerd, making both your computer and your web site "just work" for you.

If your computer is "buggy" I will fix it - and serve up a few pointers along the way.Geeks on the Beach

If you're looking to do more with your computer I will show you how - including a few tricks you probably hadn't considered.

If you're looking to become more comfortable in front of your computer - I will guide you with patience and deep knowledge. 

If you're working in the areas of real estate, hotels, spas and accommodation - we should talk.

If you're looking to improve or create your business website - I will show you how website design and development is done right.

If you live in the areas of Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Coombs and Errington - call locally at 240-6373 or write to me now.

Putting My Internet Marketing Skills Where My Mouth Is

Before I moved to Qualicum Beach on beautiful Vancouver Island and set up Geeks on the Beach, I taught a university-level computer course geared towards business owners with web sites entitled "Search Engine Marketing and Optimization".

The students that sat in on my class paid a few hundred dollars to listen to me teach them how to improve their business by promoting their websites.

Now that I'm creating another web site, this time for my own computer / software / website creation business, it's time to put my search engine marketing lessons into practice and my supposed expertise to the test.

In other words, it's time to put my Internet marketing skills where my mouth is.

Qualicum Beach Geek-Mobile (Sideview)

The kids will hate it when I show up at their school all decked out in dorkiness next September, but I love the smiles I see on everyones faces as I drive through town.

If you're in Parkville, Errington, Coombs or Qualicum Beach and you see the Geek-Mobile roll by, be sure to wave hello.

I won't even charge for the initial assesment.

What I will do is listen carefully to your needs and explain your options - in plain English.
