Title:Web Site Fixer
Location:Anywhere
Job Description
I am a small Commercial Estate Agent. Up until a few weeks ago I had a good functioning Web Site that was originally a templated Estate Agent package. The guy who did it for me was modifying it and transferring it from a .co.uk to a .com as we needed to change the server it was on. I registered the new address and bought a database package from 123 reg.com and he claims to have uploaded the original, but it does not work. He has since got another job and dropped me like a hot potato. I need someone to look at it and sort it out. I have no idea if it is a 5 minute or few hour job, I suspect the latter. I also need a local 'mate' going forward who can tweak the design and add features as we go
Job Budget
Type:Per Hour

What is the website address?
Do you have a copy of all the scripts and the database?
What does not work? All of it or only some parts?
Regards
David

I can get a copy of the scripts and database but apparently it is already loaded
All doesn't work, did you get a bit more expansive message from me, I'm not sure if it went through because i gave out tooo much info.
M. G. on 01/09/2010 20:32Dear Richard
As David has asked, could we have the site address please?
You said you wanted someone local, is Bristol close enough?
thanks
Mark
T. H. on 02/09/2010 02:22i'm in cardiff, is that any good for you?
Let us have the address so we can have a look at what's not working. It might be something simple if it's only stopped working since transferring.
Tom.

If you can, delete your last message, as this is public, and anyone can see it.

Looked at the address you gave and there is obviously some files missing or pointing to the wrong place. I will place a bid for this job now.

Thanks,

Here are some practical tips on staying safe
- Never pay any money to Clients and or provide sensitive details like your Bank information, Credit Card or Passwords
- Never accept a Job if you have been directed away from PeoplePerHour to another website
- Be cautious when providing your personal contact details (email, telephone number, instant message ID etc) before your Bid is accepted
- If you have been asked to send samples, put a watermark on them or send low resolution examples to avoid being exposed and not getting paid
- Don’t start work before your Bid is accepted and your Escrow deposit is made
- Keep your Escrow account topped up and ensure that you use the Private Message Board to track all pertinent details about the Job e.g. timelines, deliverables etc
- Before you supply final works to Clients, ensure you have adequate funds in Escrow
Remember: if something looks too good to be true, it probably is!
