I'm Asher. I build and look after websites for local businesses, and I do it from Blackwood rather than from an office in Cardiff with a Valleys phone number.
Most web work sold into the Valleys is sold from somewhere else. You get a contact form, a ticket number, and a fortnight's wait to change your opening hours over Christmas.
Being in Blackwood means something practical: I can meet you at your place before you commit to anything, and when you want the menu swapped or a new photo on the front page, you message me and it gets done. There's no account manager in between.
It also means I know the patch. A business on the high street here is competing with Newbridge, Pontllanfraith and Ystrad Mynach, not with Cardiff, and the site should read like it.
A pub on the high street that needed opening hours, menus and events somewhere people could actually find them, rather than buried in a Facebook post from three weeks ago. Built in five days.

Send me the name of your business and I'll tell you honestly whether a website would earn its keep. If it wouldn't, I'll say so.
