Hi Wynand,
What we mean by basic websites is that we don’t offer e-commerce,directories,listings and complex websites such as property listing sites or sites such as Facebook.
We do however offer much more than basic websites including feedback forms,blogs,downloads,maps,etc.
The best way to see if we can accommodate you is to view the websites that was designed by us in our portfolio.
