WHO WE ARE?

Chris Englefield
Website and application development
With an extensive career in the IT industry of nearly 30 years, and experience in all aspects of hardware, software and networking, following my relocation to the Algarve in 2004 I have been offering computer services throughout the region.
After several clients approached me about building their websites, it seemed a logical progression to start offering this as a service. Approximately 10 years ago we took over Algarve Web Hosting, and began developing sites for clients both here in the Algarve and in other regions of the world (UK, Holland, Germany). Currently we host over 60 websites on our servers, and this number is growing rapidly! We now offer an all-encompassing website design service plus social media management services in order to maximise the online exposure of your website.
Sue Englefield
Website design & administration
After leaving college qualified as a Beauty Therapist in 1989, I went on to work for well known cosmetic companies such as Chanel, Lancôme and Clarins. I left the beauty business in 1995 to begin working for the European branch of an American based software company. Whilst there I gained valuable experience in various areas of computer software and administration, and found that I have a real enjoyment and creative flair for Website Design.
Since moving to the Algarve I have worked alongside Chris to combine my enjoyment of giving professional customer service, my technical knowledge and my love of making things look great in all areas of my work. My role involves logo design, marketing material design, social media management and website administration.
View a selection of our website portfolio
We currently host in excess of 60 websites on our UK based virtual private server. We only host sites that are built by us, so that we can manage and monitor all aspects of the sites we build and deliver.
Joomla CMS
We have extensive expertise in the Joomla Content Management System and find this system suits a lot of our clients who wish to be able to make changes to their website themselves.
Joomla is extremely flexible and easy to expand with the use of pre-built components and modules. If there is no component that meets your requirements, then we are able to build custom components that will function exactly the way you want.
Traditional Websites
If you have very specific requirements we are able to build your site using HTML, PHP and MySQL. These websites give you the ultimate in flexibility as the sites can be built to your exacting specifications, however in order to update sites built this way yourself would require you to have knowledge of HTML.
Have an existing website that you want updating? Not a problem, providing you have access to the site files and existing hosting we can help.

ON-LINE APPLICATIONS
In Addition to public facing websites, we are also able to develop in-house systems for your company, accessible from anywhere on the internet these systems can keep you in control even when you are not in the office.
Workflow automation systems, property management systems, contact management and lead management systems are all examples of just some of the applications we have built for our clients in the past.
The information stored in these systems can then be accessed by, and used to populate content on your public facing website, saving you time and keeping your website up to date at all times. If you have a need for such a system please contact us to discuss your requirements.
