“Have just got in and rushed to my computer. Lovely website, I am so pleased with it and it perfectly reflects the style and content that I like. I thought it would be a pain putting together, but actually it has been tremendous fun, and you have explained things comprehensibly, which is a real rarity for IT experts. It has also been much quicker than I thought. Again, thank you for the great work, and your unremitting patience with cascades of emails!”

“If you want a sophisticated, hard-working website but have little or no idea about how to go about it, have no fear – just get in touch with Rob Tomlinson. He will guide you effortlessly through the process, making the most arcane technology understandable, steering you away from potential problems and devising solutions to all your queries. I cannot rate him highly enough: he made what could have been a protracted nightmare into a collaborative pleasure.”

“English Connection, l’école d’anglais à Vannes, has a fabulous new website thanks to Rob Tomlinson’s flair, expertise, positive can-do attitude, calm professionalism and meticulous attention to detail.

Rob can put IT jargon into plain English and he has gently and patiently taught me (a technophobic dunderhead) how to manage the site myself.

It has been an absolute pleasure liaising with Rob on this project and I have no hesitation in recommending his web design services.”

“I have no hesitation in recommending Rob Tomlinson who contributed enormously to the redesign of Oxygen PR’s website. Nothing is too much trouble for him. He’s very happy to experiment with ideas and also suggest interesting and provocative thoughts of his own, but never in an overbearing way. He was extremely easy to work with and I would happily do so again - as well as recommending him to any of my clients.”

“I absolutely love the site that Rob has created for me. It’s not only exactly what I want - it’s much, much more!

I had absolutely no website experience, so Rob took my hand and very professionally walked me through the computer jungle. By introducing me to Drupal, he has made it easy for me and others to navigate my blog. With his fastidious attention to detail and his continued friendly support, I can unreservedly recommend him. Wonderful, what more can I say except, thank you Rob!”

“I cannot recommend Rob highly enough. He really has the ability to tune in to a client and offer clear advice on the full span of creative and technical issues surrounding websites. Because he can pin down ideas so clearly in emails means that the UK-France difference was irrelevant. His attention to detail in easy-to-understand terms is so welcome. As a result, I have a website that looks fantastic and brings in the business. Thank you very much, Rob. A very happy customer indeed!”

We look forward to continuing our relationship in the future, knowing that our website is in very safe hands.”

Keeping the design and maintenance of our website in-house has been of inestimable benefit.”
