Looking for some help with my website, upgrading and maintaining.
Post a link? Looks like the homepage from your profile (http://www.sapphiredisco.co.uk/) is down?

You're already using a CMS (Drupal) and although a fairly basic design it's mobile friendly. What issues do you have with the current site?
I need help with uploading new products , I was hoping to find someone who could update the site give it a bit more of a cutting edge look and make sure it's all running properly , for an hourly rate is this feasible ?Quote:

Can it be made into a secure site.
If so would that be very costly ?
Thanks
Products can be added and removed within minutes and making the site SSL secure is also a very straight forward task.
Changing the design would be where the time and money gets taken up.
Probably not, if it's a redesign you want. This is the part that'll cost you, as Nathan pointed out. It may involve a change to different ecommerce software. Look into things like WooCommerce, Magento, Shopify, Prestashop etc. but look closely at the pros and cons of each.Quote:

I seem to think there's an on-line tutorial on the Web Nation site, and in my experience he's always been happy to make changes to the sections that aren't accessible from the user interface free of charge.
