The company continues to do business under the WebSmith name due to customer loyalty and brand recognition in South Eastern Florida. Both Legacy companies have been in the internet services business for over a decade. Their combination resulted in a company with global reach and the ability to provide a broad set of internet services including custom websites, mobile applications, web hosting, secure email, cloud storage, email marketing, domain name registration, SSL certificates, and a myriad of Microsoft toolsets.<\/p>\n<p>The combined company is incorporated in the Great State of Ohio and all the company&rsquo;s operations are based in Ohio. Rebel and WebSmith currently have in excess of 2000 customers in 48 states and 42 countries worldwide. The largest concentration of customers is in Florida.<\/p>\n<p>The mission of the company is to provide high quality web services and support at an affordable price without using any gimmickry or deceptive pricing practices.<\/p>\n<p>Where rigorous security requirements dictate, such as the medical and legal fields, WebSmith owns and operates its own servers from a highly rated, HIPAA compliant Tier3+ datacenter. In contrast, most web developers rent server space from a third party and have no control over the service. Our up-time ratings meet or exceed the industry standard of 99.99%.<\/p>\n<p>The company does not accept business from high security risk industries or countries. And we never sell or share customer information unless specifically authorized by our customers in order to provide our services such as credit card billing. The company has a cyber security expert on staff to ensure a secure environment for our customers and to provide support in the unlikely event of a security breach. As an additional level of security, we back-up all our hosted websites at no additional charge. Should a site become corrupted, it can be quickly and easily restored to its previous state.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Why Websmith:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type:none;\">\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check\"><\/i> One Stop full-service provider for web services<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check\"><\/i> US based help desk support<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check\"><\/i> An emphasis on personalized customer service<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check\"><\/i> Affordable pricing without fine print, promotions, gimmickry or deception<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check\"><\/i> Free unbiased expert advice<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check\"><\/i> We will never sell you a service you don&rsquo;t need<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- .section-content -->\n\n\t\t\n<style scope=\"scope\">\n\n#section_242840513 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_593306674\">\n\t\t<div class=\"bg section-bg fill bg-fill  bg-loaded\" >\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div><!-- .section-bg -->\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-504323816\">\n<div class=\"col profile-img medium-5 small-12 large-5\"  ><div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\n    <div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_2004179600\">\n                <div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/gotowebsmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/doug-800x800.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"24\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gotowebsmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/doug.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gotowebsmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/doug-280x280.jpg 280w, https:\/\/gotowebsmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/doug-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gotowebsmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/doug-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>                \n            <\/div>\n                   \n<style scope=\"scope\">\n\n#image_2004179600 {\n  width: 75%;\n}\n<\/style>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<h3><strong>Doug Becker<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"social-icons follow-icons \" ><a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" data-label=\"Facebook\"  rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"icon plain facebook tooltip\" title=\"Follow on Facebook\"><i class=\"icon-facebook\" ><\/i><\/a><a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\"  data-label=\"Twitter\"  rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"icon plain  twitter tooltip\" title=\"Follow on Twitter\"><i class=\"icon-twitter\" ><\/i><\/a><a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-label=\"LinkedIn\" class=\"icon plain  linkedin tooltip\" title=\"Follow on LinkedIn\"><i class=\"icon-linkedin\" ><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"col profile-desc medium-7 small-12 large-7\"  ><div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n<p>Doug is owner and CEO of Rebel Internet Systems &amp; Technologies LLC.
