About Me

Welcome to my blog, please feel free to subscribe to my RSS feed or leave a comment.

My name is Christopher Ross, in the past I have made a living by picking grapes, catching chickens, working in a warehouse, cutting vinyl, designing logos, teaching college, writing manuals, taking photographs, giving lectures, pushing pixels, selling radios and flipping burgers. Jobs are like a pair of socks, if you don’t change them once and a while you get stuck in one place. Here’s my bio.

Need Help?

The web isn’t complicated, only web developers are. I take the mystery out of web sites and build online environments for business owners. Building web sites is a lot like tossing a frozen turkey, it’s all about getting a grip on the problem and being sure you know what to do next. My job is to make your business grow by knowing the tools, the tricks and the tactics for building a success business on the Internet.  Learn a little more about what I do, or contact me if you’d like to talk about your needs.
