"After searching for a competent webmaster in 2004 after many negative experiences with other webmasters, I settled on Elbel Consulting Services, based upon a recommendation from one of his longtime clients (a man who ran for Governor of California).

I have a dynamic website that requires constant changes, sometimes on a daily basis and often on weekends when 99% of the webmasters aren't working. Fred has been exceptionally responsive in making these changes, even on weekends and has been very reasonable with his rates. Fred has also used his expertise with search engines to keep my site highly ranked using dozens of keywords and keyword phrases. This is absolutely crucial to a web-based business and I owe much of my company's continued high ranking to Fred's efforts.

He also redesigned my entire site using CSS and current web technology. The end result is that I now have a website that is attractive, consistent, easy to maintain and thus is cost-effective.

Fred is an expert at audio editing and has edited and uploaded - using the best technology available - all of the site's dance band, jazz trio, ethnic band, Classical ensemble and solo musicians' audio tracks. He has done in-depth editing to a number of tracks - including my own band and cabaret vocalist's studio tracks - in order to eliminate recording problems.

To my surprise, when I wanted to place promotional videos on the website, Fred again demonstrated skill with video editing. His work with 'tumbling graphics' on The DLE Las Vegas Dance Party Show Band was impressive and continues to impress.

Fred has also been instrumental in helping me deal with hosting problems with my previous hosting service.

Fred has always been reliable, pleasant to work with and he delivers results! I would recommend Elbel Consulting Services LLC to any company, small business, or politician looking for a hands on, experienced webmaster."

"As the #8 realtor nationwide for my company of 22,000 agents, it is imperative that I have a professional website. I hired Fred Elbel based on a referral despite being long distance. His technology acumen, problem solving ability, prompt responsiveness were incredible. It is rare for a technology expert to understand the many facets of marketing in an unfamiliar industry. He immediately grasped my online strategy and was able to provide multi-tier solutions. The website was built with a back-end data base and was done with incredible professionalism in a timely manner. Being long distance was never an issue as we were able to communicate virtually without any hassle or time constraints. I highly recommend Fred as a developer that has in-depth technology knowledge and a strong grasp of marketing needs."

"Fred Elbel was very easy to work with when designing my web site for Synergy Photographics. He's a great listener and he incorporated my suggestions and ideas tweaked with his creative insights and technological knowledge to produce a beautiful site that was well designed, easy to navigate and a pleasure to use.

"Fred Elbel constructed my website to promote my practice. He constructed the site based on my existing brochures and dressed it up making it attractive and user friendly. Many of my patients have commented that the site is easy to use, provides information that is informative and gives them a good understanding about my practice and the services I provide.

Fred has been easy to work with and does modifications to the website in a timely fashion. The website is attractive without being over done.

I would highly recommend the services Mr. Elbel provides for the purpose of constructing a website. His work is original, professionally done, is performed on a personal level and has been an enhancement to my practice."

"I just wanted to take the time to send you out a quick thank you for the work that you did regarding our website. I never told you this but in the beginning, we were looking at several candidates, including a company all way around the world in India, but the price that they offered with the quality level that they guaranteed was hard to pass up. Until we spoke to you. Not only did you empathize with our plight being a new, small business that was trying to be as cost effective as possible without sacrificing the quality needed to compete in our industry.

To this day, the amount of compliments that we get, not to mention the number of customers we have been able to obtain, have now been added to our clientele list. By allowing them to see our web site directly gives us the credibility needed to compete. The few months I waited to do this in the early stages of our business cost me dearly. It's hard to quantify on paper the significance but I can tell you that recently we signed one of our biggest accounts, American Express. They had told me the information that they were able to view on our web site along with how professional it was done and the user friendly layout (which I still don't know how you pulled that off with all the information we gave to you) certainly helped us land this account. If not for them going to our website and liking what they saw, we would never have earned their business. That is why I wanted to send you a thank you.

It was a pleasure doing business with you. I don't know how many other developers would have gone above and beyond the way you did. Not jus professionally speaking but also the way you helped us with our payment schedule. If ever you need a reference just have them give me a call. More companies should benefit the way we did."
