Blog
Writing about IT for the people who have to pay for it.
Aimed at owners and managers of Houston businesses of 11 to 50 people, not at other IT companies.
Nothing published yet
Being straight about it: there are no posts here yet
We would rather say that than fill the page with three rewritten press releases so it looks busy. The site already answers around sixty questions properly, and until we have something worth adding to that, sending you there is more use than sending you here.
What will appear, when it does, comes from what people in this city are actually searching for rather than from a content calendar. The three areas below are where the gap between demand and available answers is widest.
Cost and pricing
What managed IT actually costs in Houston, per user and per company size, and how to compare two quotes that are not measuring the same thing.
Choosing a provider
What to ask before signing, which answers should worry you, and how to tell a real 24 hour desk from an answering service.
Compliance and audits
Client security questionnaires, what auditors ask for, and how to have the evidence ready a year before anyone requests it.
In the meantime
The answers that do exist
Grouped by what you are trying to work out, with each question linked to the page that answers it.
Book a 30 minute IT review
30 minutes. We tell you what we would change first, and you keep the notes.
About the blog
Straight answers
Why are there no posts yet?
Because the site was rebuilt before the writing started, and we would rather show an empty page than pad it with three rewritten vendor press releases so it looks busy. The pages here already answer around eighty questions properly. Sending you to those is more use than sending you to filler.
What will the blog cover?
What people in this city actually search for, which we researched rather than guessed. The widest gaps between demand and available answers are what managed IT costs in real numbers, how to choose between providers, and what a client security questionnaire is really asking for. Those come first.
Will anything here be gated or need an email address?
No. Nothing on this site sits behind a form, and the blog will not either. If a piece is worth writing it is worth reading without a trade.
