About Oaktor Solutions
My name is Miles Wolstenholme, Oaktor Solutions is my business / trading name. While I am the sole member of this company, I often work closely with my network of trusted partners to deliver a professional-quality web development service to businesses across the South West of England and the broader United Kingdom.
I have been interested in computers since childhood – starting with a green screen Commodore PET and the BBC Model A! But, it was not until graduating from university did I become truly passionate about technology and its business application.
My first jobs were in IT Support – and later in IT & Systems Management. These often involved interacting with other departments in the businesses, allowing me to pick up complementary skills like sales and online marketing. As I diversified it quickly became apparent that I could fuse many of these disciplines together to provide a comprehensive web service of my own.
I have been developing websites since 1993, and while technology has changed massively since the first generation of browsers much has also remained constant. Most sites are interactive company brochures, designed to attract new business and support existing customers. They need to deliver clear, concise messaging in an easily digested form and be able to facilitate communication. I provide websites that are easy to read, simple to navigate and work consistently on as many devices as possible.
Nowadays I run my own business, often working virtually with host companies to provide a transparent (white-labelled) service. These companies retain my services for a negotiable fee and leverage my skills and experience for their own business needs. Working in this manner has given me the flexibility to support a young family and also to embrace
And there are those websites which have been around for a while which could use a bit of “spit and polish”. Oaktor Solutions can advise the best approach to rejuvenate what you already have.
Oaktor Solutions is fiercely proud of the local area; this is evident in both the company name and logo (intended to depict a stout oak tree next to a rocky granite outcrop – known as a “tor”).
Please note that due to the nature of my business I can only accept visitors by prior arrangement. I am more than happy to meet at your local office, or if you prefer we can discuss over a coffee and cake?
