Welcome to our March newsletter. In preparation for Spring and in celebration of another year of operation, Farmer Host is proud to announce our new partnership, service enhancements and website features along with some exclusive deals for you.

Welcome to Our New Partner

Farmer Host is proud to announce our partnership with WJChalton Solutions to offer complete website creation and maintenance packages with all our hosting plans. You can now easily turn any idea into a beautiful website and even have us keep it updated for you. Whether you want a one-time design project completed, graphic logos created or regular content updates, we will tailor the perfect solution for you. Read on for a word from our partner.

“WJChalton solutions provides website design and data base management for small businesses and nonprofits in Northern California and Southern Oregon. The company is based in Fortuna along the beautiful California Redwood Coast. Our client base includes local political campaigns (county supervisor, school districts), service clubs (Rotary), as well as a diversity of small businesses in industries like agriculture (cranberry farm), personal service (certified massage therapy), and medical (dermatology practice).

WJChalton Solutions specializes in both traditional HTML and WordPress development. Our current offer is to rewrite older HTML sites using the WordPress content management system at no cost to our client. Clients can benefit by having more control of their site content and lower content management costs.

The company was founded in 2010 by Walt Chalton upon easing into early retirement after over 30-years working in IT as a software developer and project manager. Because we are home based and family owned our overhead is low and we can provide excellent service with a personal touch. We established a business relationship with Farmer Host late in 2012. The ability to offer a reliable, reasonably priced hosting and domain management company has been a great selling point for potential clients. The reliability, responsiveness, and technical assistance provided by Farmer Host is helping us expand and look good at the same time. We are excited to focus on our website design expertise while leaving the hosting and technical aspects to Farmer Host.
