BDT Hosting is managed website and business email hosting for Calgary and area businesses. I run it myself, so when something needs attention you speak to the person who actually looks after the server, not a ticket queue in another time zone.
I host websites for businesses in Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, Chestermere, Okotoks and beyond, and remote support works anywhere in Canada. If you also need a new website, I can design and build it, and I can look after the computers and network in your office too.
See the questions below, or open a support ticket and ask me directly.
