Small and Medium Enterprise Division ..... Establish an online presence
Often it is difficult to justify why your business should have a web
site. One thing that is certain is that we are living in a society that
is spending more of its time online - both at home and in business. If
you do not have a web site and your competition does then you are going
to miss out on this sector of the market place. There is a misconception
that a web site is a selling tool only. The reality is that it is new
dynamic way of communicating with your customers and trading partners.
At Technicks we can design a web site for you that is more likely to get
you online trade than any body else. We always give advice on what we
think the likely return on investment is for you and keep on giving you
advice, year on year, to keep you ahead of the competition. With over 10
years experience of doing this we think that we are probably one of the
most knowledgeable internet providers in the world.

Email Services
Email has become almost a default method of communication. If you do not
use email to communicate now you are being left behind. Email is not
without its drawbacks however.
Spam
Spam is unsolicited emails that you receive – just like the junk mail you receive through your letter box. If you are not protected from spam then the chances are that eventually 90% of your email will be unsolicited.
Viruses
Computer viruses infect your IT systems often rendering them inoperable. The cost of recovery from a virus infection can be considerable. In fact the average cost to each small business in the UK in 2003 was £2,500 in recovery costs and downtime resulting from computer virus infections. Most viruses arrive in your computer via infected emails. When these are opened a virus automatically infects your hard drive. Many viruses are harmless, but most will damage your files and system. You can protect yourself from viruses by installing a virus detection program. There are many programs available at a small cost and some are even free for example AVG from www.grisoft.com. For more information on current viruses click here. The main drawback with virus scanners is that they have to be kept up to date. This is not always straight forward to do and viruses can infect your computer between updates.
Technicks email services are all pre scanned for viruses before they are delivered to you. They are also filtered for spam reducing the amount delivered to you by as much as 98%. This eliminates the chance that you become infected between updates. You still should have a virus scanning program because email is not the only way that a virus can get onto your computer.
