The Platforms We Maintain for New York City, NY Websites

We have a diverse team of web designers and web developers, for New York City businesses, who have been immersed in multiple website platforms over the years. Nevertheless, mastering a handful of platforms is better than trying to be an expert on everything. Because of that, we tend to service only these platforms for New York City websites:

• New York City WordPress Website Support
• New York City WooCommerce Web Maintenance
• New York City Shopify Website Maintenance

As a web support company, we used to maintain and support Joomla and Magento websites for New York City-area businesses. The reason we moved away from those platforms was to let our web maintenance experts focus more on training and support.
