Chrislands has hosted my sales site for the last 17 of those 20 years.
Small company means you are talking directly with the owners, not a call center in Asia. Top notch service, quick response to queries, always innovating and improving site services. I recommend them to any small business looking to level-up their e-commerce game.
Chrislands is not just books. I sell a wide variety of games, miniatures, models, collecting supplies, dice, and posters. Oh and books too!
Our store has been a part of the Chrislands group since your second year,
and it has been by far our best business investment. A heartfelt thank you for always being there, not only to set new stores up quickly and painlessly, but to keep them up and running, updated and bolstered with ongoing special features, and always alive and present to the search engines of the internet.
Our previous host convinced us to take a long and spelling intensive name.
There were several severe spelling mistakes that were produced by this website design company/host. Once we wanted to change our store's opening times (a two minute task) and were charged 25 bucks.
That changed drastically when we switched to Chrislands. For roughly $ 120.-- a year (not including the domain name) we have a website with shopping baskets and lots of features and 100% compatibility to Booktrakker. The best thing is that we can change and add pages as much as we want. Also we get competent personal support.
