    candid, honest, and fair

    Hi David! Your ability to help us resolve our most vexing “website build” issues is impressive. Better yet, you help us in a way that teaches us how to do future fixes ourselves. You’re candid, honest, and fair. I appreciate this, too!

    Always enjoy your newsletter and I read it immediately when it comes in. You have a “friendly” way of writing and explaining things which is a real talent.

    Call me a customer forever.
    In an online world where service always seems forever to wait for as well as a complete solution, that does not describe David’s work. I was experiencing a Kadence issue that David fixed nearly as fast as it took me to explain it. He followed with a video and two very kind emails. David obviously cares about customer excellence. Customer success is what he wants. I’ve enjoyed David’s wit, wisdom, and expertise he provides in his weekly newsletter. His video advice on membership solutions and beyond is outstanding. Yet, this was my first time experiencing him as a customer. Call me a customer forever and one who will recommend him without hesitation.

    Just what I needed
    I’ve employed or contracted with over 50 tech consultants, programmers, and web developers since my first Internet marketing services company in 1995. Unfortunately, too many of my experiences have not been positive! David Risley is the exception! His Concierge offering was just what I needed to escape from website setup hell, but our one-on-one implementation sessions have been the icing on the cake. David listens…yes, he listens to my out-of-the-box customization requests and delivers real-time implementation. 5 stars out of 5 on all counts. Thanks, David.

    David is the best!
    David is the best!  He not only understands the technical work, but is happy to “zoom out” and look at the bigger picture for your business.  I am thrilled as I work with him to revamp and refresh my online website – highly recommend him over “figure it out yourself”.  Hire him-you’ll be glad you did.

    David has made the process seamless
    David has been instrumental in transforming my website and business. As someone running an online life insurance agency, I never expected to need website-building skills—but David has made the process seamless. His quick responses and clear guidance have been invaluable. He not only answers my questions but also helps me prioritize what truly matters for my website, enabling me to focus on growing my business with confidence.

    He has held his lofty standard

    David Risley is a divine accident for me.  I was trying to reach a friend of mine with the same name and encountered my Guru of Tech.  He had all the answers I needed and more. That was over ten years ago and he has held his lofty standard in all of our transactions and interactions.

    a reliable contact for difficult WordPress questions
    David helped me to significantly improve the speed and performance of my membership site. He also helped me with technical improvements to my website. Although I’m not a WordPress beginner and consider myself an experienced WordPress user, I reached my limits here. It’s good to know that I have someone on hand that I can ask when I get stuck. All my questions were answered quickly and with expertise, and I found David to be a reliable contact for difficult WordPress questions. I highly recommend David.

    He is really easy to work with
    After consolidating four blogs into one, I realized that my blog was just ugly. He looked at my blog and made some recommendations and installed a theme that is easy to use and customize. Then he gave me suggestions for how I can make a few more tweaks to ensure that my site loads well, stays secure, and presents my work in the way that I want it to look. David stayed with me until I was sure I could use the blog and that I was satisfied with it. He is really easy to work with, and his explanation videos really made it easy to see what he was saying I could improve on. If you need web services, you need David Risley!

    He’s been my rock
    David is awesome, couldn’t ask for anyone better to help me with my projects and business. I trust him 100% I’ve been in his realm for many years using his courses and in 2024 knew he was the one to tackle one of our biggest projects to date in 20 years in business! … and he’s been my rock. He’s easy and so gentle with my total tech-unsaviness. He gives you input, is responsive, knowledgeable, genuine and a family man, what else do you want?!

    David really knows his stuff! 🙂  It’s a privilege to be part of Concierge. David’s professionalism, caring and integrity to create an optimal experience for his clients is quite frankly unequalled. He not only goes the extra mile but continuously researches for the tools that will provide the best possible results. I don’t think it’s possible to run a website/business without him! 😊

    I find reading it as a check in with the real world. Helpful, tangible tools with a little biz coaching. Like having a Monday morning coffee with a mentor. Just an intuitive hit. You keep shit real and that’s why I like it.

    grateful for his WP knowledge and kindness-based approach to life.
    I first met David about ten years ago. He stood out to me because I always found him to be an extremely honest, nice guy who really knows wordpress and the blogging for business models. I trust him 100% on these subjects. Every time we have worked together it has been helpful. He always responds quickly and we solve whatever needs solving. I personally wouldn’t even try to have a wordpress based business without his help. I have gotten to know him pretty well during all this time and continue to be grateful for his WP knowledge and kindness-based approach to life. I do not hesitate to recommend David fully and I simply would not do that with a lot of internet marketers because I think they are a tad sleazy.

    You strike a rare balance
    I really enjoyed your June 28th video and article on security plugins. You are such an excellent communicator! I appreciate your attention to detail in explaining the ins and outs of protecting a website. Watching the video and reading the article reminded me again of why I trust you to work on my sites. Your honest, intelligent, and you have your client’s best interest at heart. Additionally, you know how to explain things clearly and practically. You are able to strike a rare balance between handling all the geeky technical stuff and explaining issues in a way that empowers your clients to do better.

    When I got anxious, David made it easy.
    I have built four websites. All were crap. When I decided to build a new website to move my online course content onto, I knew I needed help. But I was nervous. I have hired techies in the past and it just never went well. The problem is, I’m not a techie. It’s not my area of expertise. I don’t speak the lingo. Getting a site built that was functional, visually pleasing and within my capabilities to manage seemed like a big ask. I have been a member of the Blog Marketing Academy and I always appreciated David Risley’s straight-goods approach to coaching. So, I decided to reach out and seek his advice. How do you go about finding trustworthy, affordable technical support? Imagine my surprise and gratitude when David offered to help. In the end, I got just what I wanted – a conversion-based, mobile responsive website that I can manage on my own. I cannot stress what a huge endeavor this has been for me. Tech stuff scares the beejeesus out of me! When I got anxious, David made it easy. When I got stuck, David coached me through it. David Risley made the impossible possible. As a result, I now have a website I can be proud of. I would highly recommend David Risley to anyone who wants to get free of the fear and frustration that comes with being a non-techie in the online world of business. If you’re struggling to find technical support, look no further. David Risley is a clear, credible and responsive coach. He’s also a very nice guy! I plan to continue to call upon his expertise in helping me to build my online business.

    A joy to work with
    Thank you for getting my site up and running so fast. What a relief to have that done. As a non-tech person, I can’t tell you what it means to know I have someone to call on who knows what to do, and does it so well. You are a joy to work with. Yesterday’s session with you pointed me in the right direction. So much so that I woke in the wee hours of the morning, and wrote out three pages of ideas!
