Cqrhosting is a father and daughter shared business. The name came from an idea of secure web sites, C.Q.R. and there is a type of anchor called a cqr anchor(hence the logo).We started this around christmas 2006 due to demand from our clients, to make our work more authentic and to create a site where potential clients can see our portfolio.

Ivan has been making web sites for 5 years using various programmes on a mac. I am self trained and spent many hours reading books and online manuals to understand how it all works. "I started my interest in computers when my dad bought a Sinclair ZX81 (1981) and I made little games and routines with 1k of memory".

Later on he wanted to do some graphics and got to use a mac for the first time. Since then he has had several jobs unrelated to computers including, Boatbuilding, Carpentry, Lorry driving, wholefood manufacture, Parenting, Building, taxi driving, Music studio, Magazine editor.

The web design got more serious when he started a Magazine and that needed a website. The magazine soon ran into problems so he closed it down but the web design grew with friends asking him for sites. He soon realised that anyone can make a web site using Frontpage or Dreamweaver but did they look good and work! So he wanted to make sites that were professional and clean, in that process he is still honing his skills and so far we have more than a dozen happy customers.

Immi has been making websites for over 2 years. She got into designing websites after making a website for a Colloge project (www.wombeatz.com). Since then she has worked on a variety of different projects each with it's own unique design. She is also self taught and has a vast knowledge of designing software including: Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, and so on.

At CQR we like to work with each client on a personal basis working together to realise the clients dream.
