This isn’t a churn-and-burn agency setup. Everything I build is strategic, tested, and managed by me — with your business goals at the centre.

Strategy

Strategy-First, Not Template-First

Most websites look the part but don’t perform. I start with what matters: who you’re helping, what you’re offering, and how we get people to take action.

Why I’m a Solo Builder (Not an Agency)

Why I’m a Solo Builder (Not an Agency)

I started VPS because too many local businesses got burned by agencies—left with websites they couldn’t update, or waiting weeks just to fix a typo.

I’m Ricardo. I build every site myself, so you get results that actually move the needle: more calls, more bookings, more trust.

No handoffs, no ghosting, no tech headaches. Just solid systems that work in the real world, with one person (me) who’s got your back every step.

Not Just Prettier — Smarter

Anyone can knock up a template. I build every site to actually do the job: get you found, win trust, and bring in real bookings. Looks sharp, works even harder.

Support That’s Actually There

With me, you’re not just getting a site—you’re getting me on call. I don’t disappear after launch. Need a tweak? Just message me direct—no ticket systems, no faff.
