“Pat has not only been a good, trustworthy and smart business associate, but a great friend for many years now. Whether hosting my sites via PQhost.com, or simply helping me an issue by answering a question I may have, or just going in and fixing my problem himself, I have always valued Pats devotion to going the extra mile when im sure he has more on his plate then having to worry about my website issue. Pqhost has never failed me as a host, and Pat has never failed me when assistance was needed. By far the best customer support, rilable service and trust worthy company I have worked with in a long long time.

Geov Parrish
hired Patrick as a Graphic/Web Designer in 2008
“Patrick helped in the transition from one hosting company (Blah hated late night business calls to buy more of their services… Go Daddy is gone forever.) I recommend PQ HOST for all your hosting needs, because they not only are fast and have an excellent service, but if anything goes wrong day or night. Patrick will help anyway possible, and he does standup to his money back guarantees. Thanks again Patrick for all your great work. Job well done, Mike Larios TheLarios Designs http://www.thelarios.com” November 18, 2008

Rachel Shaw
hired Patrick as a IT Consultant in 2007, and hired Patrick more than once
“I’m very picky when it comes to hiring services and support, with Pat he is placed high on my list. Pat takes his business seriously and customer support even more so. After our first meet, I decided to try out his services and was extremely surprised as the efficiency and prompt response I had received. The service was set up in record time. I highly recommend Pat and his services to anyone. His customer care and efficiency are unmatched by many of the other business services I have dealt with in the past. Bottom line, Pat’s services have high proficiency and professionalism that is not found that much today. His no non-sense approach and ethical business practice makes for good business not greedy business. I highly recommend his services and will definitely keep doing business with him in the long future.” October 5, 2008

David Fields
hired Patrick as a IT Consultant in 2008
“Mr. Pat Carr is a fine example of a “mom and pop shop” type web hosting company that far exceeds the expectations of said description. Pat has a wonderful sense of humor that is matched only by his willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty that most people in his position normally can not find the time for. Let me give you an example: When I first purchased a website from PQHost, I acquired it with the sole purpose of seeing how far I could push the security of his hosting and the integrity of his customer service. Yes, I know..its enough to drive any budding business person to bang their head on the desk. To make a long story short, he had complete patience with me and he even implemented some of my suggestions into his business. THAT is the kind of service you can expect from Pat Carr. Do you consider freedom of speech to be Divine? Do you want 100% confidentiality with satisfaction to boot? Do you want an easy to use backend panel with good security? Do you want pro quality Flash animation with Content Management Software at your finger tips? Pat Carr is the man for the job.” October 4, 2008
Jeremy Martin, Director, Design Department, PqHost Internet Services
reported to Patrick at PqHost Internet Services
“Pat has worked with me on several different projects over the past year. He is brilliant, fast and a savior. while doing some research and setting up some pretexts he maintained my confidences while we worked to curtail and follow fraudulent activity to the source for our clients. When emergency situations arose he was on the ball to get solutions in place immediately 24/7. With hard times ahead and the desire to cut overhead and costs I would highly recommend his hosting services the pricing and service is hard to beat.” October 4, 2008

“In the year I have been working with Shellee, I can say that I haven’t met a more hardworking and skilled person as her. Ha, I’m not easy to impress, but she manages to complete an amazing amount of projects in a limited amount of time, yet still keeps informed on current issues and balances out her family life on top of it! She’s very pleasant to work with and extremely honest, attributes not easily found today. I am anxious to work with her now and into the future and thank you very much Shellee!” October 4, 2008?
Patrick Carr, Owner, PqHost Internet Services (colleague)
“Shellee is the consummate consultant, strategist and coach. In the short time I have been working with her she has moved my company along exponentially. As an expert she recognized and resolved the technology related issues with which I was struggling and opened my eyes to market potential that I was not even aware existed with regard to expanding my training offerings. Being that Shellee is a proactive perfectionist, this entire process has unfolded in a very short time as she “leads the charge” in getting me to where she knows I need to be. We are wrapping up the first phase of work together and it will not be long before we move to the next. The prospects of an ongoing relationship with her are very exciting!! Larry” December 18, 2008?
