Pricing & Packages

I'm a freelancer and you can hire me for per hour or choose a yearly package.

< Hourly rate
My hourly rate is based on real work and does not include initial brief or research. My invoices report date and time details and I log each session to calculate the time spent on each task. For long term-projects I can setup an extra layer of control per task so each task has its own scope, comments and duration thresholds. I work on a win/win basis and "best work delivery" compared to "fastest work delivery"... worth a thousand words. This picture worth a thousand words.

< Bank hours
Working hours are based on the work done through flexible system implying mutually agreed tasks. Without annual subscription resources are better utilised and allowing a better control it spare from wasted paid hours. You have also a better control as currency exchange value (updated regularly) may modify the base price. Hour within an Hours Bank can be used up to 1 year after the purchase. The hours can be used for studies, investigations, configuration, development, maintenance, installation or team coordination.

Set a static IP address for your Lightsail instance

Bernard Sfez -

I have published several articles detailing how to install Tiki Wiki using Debian and Virtualmin on my Blog. In this article, I will explain how to configure a static IP address for your Lightsail instance so that your domain points to this IP address. Additionally, I'll guide you through ensuring that Virtualmin is properly configured to manage domains and subdomains on your Apache2 server.
