You are here because you are looking for someone to build you a website. You will also be visiting other Montreal web design websites in search of the best designer for you. In the process, you will notice that many of these web design businesses bill themselves as web design companies or firms, having:

• office space
• employees
• equipment
• transportation

As you know, the cost of running a business will always be passed onto the customer. Therefore, if it costs more to run a business, it stands to reason that you will have to pay more too.

Totalnetqc, on the other hand, bills itself as a general contractor.

General Contractor definition: someone who carries out on behalf of the owner or business developer the construction of a project in accordance with the contract documents. The term, General Contractor, is associated with the construction industry, but lends itself very easily and appropriately to designing and deploying a website.

It also means that as a general contractor, Totalnetqc doesn't have office space (yes, I work from home), employees or a major investment in so-called state-of-the-art technology, transportation, etc. Instead, Totalnetqc carries out the task of designing a website by using, what else, the internet to communicate with a network of experienced associates or, to use an overly maligned word -- freelancers.

The Freelancer 

Visit any so-called established, corporate web design firm, and you may very well read something negative about the freelancer. The fact is, web design firms want  to:

1. give the impression of stability and permanence, 
2. get more business.

• alone and therefore somehow not as capable of doing the job as well
• unreliable
• liable to walk off with your money at any moment
• working at home

They may tell you that businesses, previously burned by dishonest and incompetent freelancers, are now lining up at their doors to get a so-called real website.

I as opposed to we

Yes, I admit it, I'm a freelancer, a one-man operation. Many web design businesses are one-man operations. Of course, they may not tell you that because, perhaps, they figure you don't want to do business with a one-man operation; hence, the high density use of the pronoun we on many web design websites. Let me make it perfectly clear that on this website the pronoun I is used because I AM a one-man operation.

What you know

So now you know that Totalnetqc is a freelance, one-man operation.  That I bill myself as a general contractor, meaning, I do most of the work but, depending on the volume and complexity of the project, will subcontract to a network of skilled associates. And finally, that I have a lower overhead than those businesses that bill themselves as in-house web design firms with employees, etc...

The crux of the biscuit

What this all means to you is that while you still get a professional quality web design experience, you don't get the overhead. In other words, you pay less for an equivalent service.

So why pay more when you can pay less? Totalnetqc makes it easy and affordable to get your website online and functioning to realistic expectations.
