InformationFor 5 years Cimera.net used to be just an ezine developer and hosting service for clients. We still do that but for a long time now our clients have used us as a "first-aid" and "help" resource whenever they have been victimised by all the bad stuff than can happen on the Internet. So in May 2006 we changed our web site content focussing on providing everything our clients and friends needed to defend themselves from Internet and email attacks

(Just so that you know, there are no pop-ups on our pages: all the message boxes are CSS spans that become visible only when the mouse pointer hovers over them. Credit for these goes to the brilliant Eric Meyer.)

We still develop ezines, we still will create web sites and we still provide a really good hosting service that provides as much hands-on friendly support or managed services as our clients prefer.

Please hover over any text link or button link for extended drop-down information about that link Home The main page of this site.
We also host web sites offering one-on-one telephone and email support
and we construct and or manage web sites and develop and edit/manage e-zines
