Prepayment
Usually 30–50% to start, the rest by milestones or on delivery. Support is monthly. Exact terms are fixed in the quote before work begins.
Linux Server Setup and Website Support
I set up and maintain infrastructure: servers, deployment, backups, monitoring, and enhancements for live projects.
Who it's for
I work with small and medium businesses: when you need results without a bloated IT department — websites, automation, promotion, or turnkey support.
- Local business: cafés, salons, services, retail, delivery
- B2B and wholesale: catalogs, leads, accounting integrations
- Online stores and marketplaces at launch or scaling up
- Startups and product teams without an in-house backend developer
- Companies in Uzbekistan and remote clients worldwide
What I do
- Linux install and hardening (Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux)
- Nginx/Apache, SSL, PostgreSQL/MySQL, Docker as needed
- Deploying sites, bots, and background jobs
- Support and enhancement of existing projects
Typical tasks
- New VPS from scratch for a Django project
- Site migration to new hosting with minimal downtime
- Monthly support and small enhancements
- One-off architecture or stack consultation
How we work
- Brief You describe the task briefly on Telegram or a call. We clarify goals, timeline, and constraints.
- Estimate We define scope, milestones, and a budget guide. The first consultation is free.
- Development I work in iterations: intermediate builds, reviews, and adjustments along the way.
- Launch Deploy, verify, hand over access, and provide short project documentation.
- Support Optionally — maintenance, enhancements, and monitoring after launch.

FAQ
What SLAs for support?
Depends on the package: from business-hours response to priority fixes. We agree in writing.
Do you work with Windows servers?
Main focus is Linux. Windows only for specific tasks when required.
Consulting only, without server work?
Yes — hourly or packaged consulting on development, SEO, AI, and infrastructure.
Do you set up backups?
Yes — automated DB and file backups to separate storage, schedule, and restore checks.
Who gets server access?
Access stays with you. I work via SSH with a dedicated user; after handover you can revoke my keys.
