When was the last time you looked at your web hosting settings, particularly subscriptions and packages?

These are often set to auto renew, and I often find people are paying for extra packages as part of their hosting that they don't need (and don't realise they are paying for).

For example...
- Hosting companies sometimes sneak in "free" trials that autorenew.
- Stuff is sometimes included as part of the main hosting package, and doesn't need to be purchased seperately.
- Initial free extras that are now charged for.
- You may be using third party services (e.g. your own e-mail provider), this is the one I often spot!
- Packages and extras from old versions of websites from years ago, that are no longer required.

Check your hosting and domain settings, to make sure you are not paying for extra packages that you don't actually need.

Especially at items that are not your hosting package or domain name. Sometimes the additional packages you are paying for are required, other times they are not.

You may be spending money on things you don't actually need.

(And if you are unsure, I'm happy to have a look for you!)

I'm available for web work - I support people who already have websites, e.g. fixing problems, changes, and technical support - to discuss further, send me a message!

Released a new software product over the weekend - NotNotepad.

A plain text editor (and Notepad alternative) with a range of tools to help you work with plain text.

Ideal for coding, noting ideas, editing settings, etc.

Unlike other text editors that throw everything at you, you are initially presented with something that looks more like classic Notepad, then you decide what extras you need when editing text.

Developing this allowed me to experiment with some ideas that may make their way into my other software products.

Available for free (no catches, and you don't need to provide an e-mail address) at: https://www.libraryplayer.co.uk/2026/10/notnotepad.html

New product!

For fun I thought I'd set myself a challenge and create a simple text editor, and here's the result - NotNotepad.

Available for free, with a range of tools and options to help you edit text.

Problems with your website annoying you (or worse, losing you customers)?

I'm available for web work!

I support people who already have websites, rather than websites I've built, including fixing problems, changes, and technical support.

For example, I've worked with...
- Clients who built their website themselves and need technical support.
- People who manage their own website (e.g. their original web person has left) and have things not working.
- Sometimes worked with web designers and agencies needing specialist help.

Happy to take on small one-off work at my hourly rate (e.g. if you just have one or two problems need fixing) or larger projects.

For example, these past few weeks I've...

- Got a website that was down back online.
- Fixed problems with a security plugin.
- Supported someone with SEO.
- Helped a client complete a website they have built.
- Installed the latest updates on hosting.
- Website feedback/audits.

15+ years experience, with a coding background (so I can often spot and fix problems).

If you have a problem with your website you'd like me to look at, send me a message!

Built your website yourself?

A lot of my work is from either...
- Clients who have used a DIY web builder (e.g. Wix).
- Built their website in WordPress themselves.
- The site is built by someone else, but they now manage their own website.

Sometimes people need technical support, for example things on the website not working, changes, or more technical support... and thats where I step in!

I'm a web developer supporting existing websites, rather than websites I've built myself.

My background is in coding, so can often spot and fix a lot of technical problems.

(And if you are unsure of the way forward, or would like me to check the website is running smoothly and looks good, I also offer website audits/feedback for £35 with no obligation to hire me for any further work)

If you'd like my help with your website, send me a message!

Just helped a client set up a domain name with their website (they'd built the website themselves, but needed technical support with the domain and the website going live!)

I only work with existing websites. For example sometimes people have created the website themselves and need technical support (as was the case with this work), or their existing web developer or support person is long gone.

While I can provide ongoing support, most of my work is one-off at my hourly rate (with prices starting at £75) with people hiring me when they need my help.

Whether you need a domain set up, something not working as expected, or changes made, if you'd like my help with your own website, send me a message! 😊

- Book marketing worksheet to get more readers.
- Template for a non-fiction book.

Have you claimed your Google Business?

When carrying out my £35 website audits, this is often an area of improvement that I identify.

It's surprising how many businesses haven't done this - or if they have they only completed the minimal info.

Claim it! It can help with SEO, especially locally (plus prevent fraudsters claiming your business and posing as you).

If you have claimed your Google Business profile, ensure as much info is included rather than the bare minimum - e.g. your opening hours, services, address, etc.

(Also worth checking and claiming your business on Bing too!)

My website feedback is a popular service - I'll check over your website, and provide feedback on ideas for improvements, potential ways forward, pitfalls, potential issues, items that are missing, layout, readability, and suggestions for improving SEO.

With no obligations to hire me for any further work - many people I provide feedback for often implement the improvements themselves, or do as much as possible themselves and get me to do the more technical stuff.

Send me a message if you'd like feedback on your own website!

Problems with your website that are annoying you (or worse, losing you customers)?

I'm available for web work!

I support people who already have websites, rather than websites I've built.

E.g. changes made, stuff set up, or problems fixed.

Either smaller one-off work e.g. fixing a few problems at my hourly rate, or larger projects.

Prices start at £75, ideal if you just have one or two problems need fixing.

For example, these past few weeks I've...
- Helped fix a page editor.
- Carried out some of my website audits.
- Supported a client with SEO.
- Checked plugin subscriptions.
- Technical support for someone who used a DIY web builder.
- Updated a website that hadn't been updated for years.

15+ years experience, with a coding background (so I can often spot and fix problems).

If you have a problem with your website you'd like me to look at, send me a message!

I don't create websites!

With a few exceptions, pretty much all of my work is supporting businesses with their existing websites (rather than websites I've created).

E.g. fixing problems, making changes, providing technical support, feedback on way forward, setting up, etc.

(Saying that - sometimes there's a lot of work to do on a website, that by the end there are so many changes it ends up gradually becoming a new website!)

15+ years experience - with a coding/development background.

I'm available for web work - so send me a message if you are looking for help with your website - whether its small one-off work at my hourly rate, larger projects, or feedback.
