Our Story

Like all great ideas, this one started while hunting caribou in Scandinavia. Well, not really, but maybe philosophically. Just listen.

Three guys meet. One of them can design like a madman, one of them programs like Matthew Broderick in "War Games", and one of them is sick of bad web sites that make good products look like a joke.

At the same time, in the same universe, the web keeps growing. Instead of asking, "What's an email?" like we did in '96, we ask people "What's your web site address?" - ever hear that one?

But, somebody is having a hard time keeping up – small businesses. Why? Sometimes they convince themselves that a good web site isn't needed for their business. That idea is quickly becoming a tragic mindset. Most of the time, small businesses can't afford a great web site. When large and mid-size companies are paying $60,000 for their slick, new site, the little guys have to settle for second fiddle, or even fourth oboe.

But, that's why you're here isn't it? You don't want your neighbor's brother-in-law building you a site that "gets the job done" – because that's not good enough anymore.

Altaform builds elite small business web sites at a reasonable price. Our goal is to give small businesses the chance to compete in this competitive, virtual, world-wide market. You never know who wants what you're selling unless you give them the opportunity to be impressed by your product. Communicate that globally, and now we're having some fun.

Okay, maybe the caribou metaphor was a stretch, but it kept you reading.
