Northern Computer Services

Based in North Bay, Ontario, Northern Computer Services works with business owners across Canada who need a web presence built and maintained by a small, hands-on team. Founded in 2002, the company has been offering website design and related digital services for more than fifteen years, positioning itself as a full-service provider rather than a specialist in a single discipline. Its client base consists of business owners seeking custom, responsive websites along with ongoing support, and the company notes it is small enough to offer personal attention while still providing round-the-clock support after launch. Services cover website design and development, search engine optimization aimed at improving rankings on search engines such as Google, MSN, Yahoo and Bing, and photography and video production intended to build credibility for clients' marketing materials. The company also offers content management systems for clients who want to edit their own site content, graphic design and branding work, hosting across shared, virtual or dedicated servers, and database development for relational databases of varying scale. Additional offerings include content development, where a marketing writer helps articulate business benefits online, and consulting and marketing support drawing on business managers, accountants, market researchers and human resources specialists. Northern Computer Services also states it stands behind its work through a satisfaction guarantee, offering refunds to clients who are not satisfied with the finished website.
