# Joe Abdo Services
> IT services for small and medium businesses in Canada. Goal: simplify technology and reduce costs, not increase them. One person, no agency, no runaround.

## Who I am
Joe Abdo is a developer and IT generalist based in Montréal, QC, Canada. He works directly with small and medium businesses (under 50 employees) to handle their technology needs without the overhead of an agency. One point of contact for everything.

## What I do
- Website hosting: Fast, reliable hosting for your WordPress or static sites, managed directly by me. When something goes wrong you talk to a real person, not a chatbot.
- Domain name registration and management: Domain registration, renewal and full management of your domain names. DNS setup, redirects, professional email. You don't need to know what an MX record is to have email that just works.
- Hosting and domain security: SSL, firewalls, attack protection, access monitoring and real-time alerts. Your site and data stay protected without you having to think about it.
- Automated backups and recovery: Daily backups of your sites, databases and important files. If something happens, we restore fast. This is the one thing people always wish they had set up beforehand.
- Custom internal tool creation: Got a repetitive process, a weekly report nobody wants to build, or an internal form that wastes everyone's time? I build simple tools that solve exactly that problem.
- Task and workflow automation: Connecting apps, syncing data, auto-generating reports, scheduling emails, triggering alerts. What used to take hours every week can often be automated in a few days.
- WordPress development and care: Custom WordPress sites, theme work, plugins, performance and ongoing maintenance. From simple business sites to e-commerce, delivered cleanly and explained clearly.
- Day-to-day IT for teams under 50: The laptop that needs setting up, the user who got locked out, the printer nobody can fix. I handle the small stuff before it turns into a big problem. Fast, calm, no jargon.
- Microsoft 365 management: Setup, licenses, users, Outlook, Teams, SharePoint. The right plan for your business size, without paying for features you'll never use.
