Who we are.

I run 4Development.Net as a one-person hosting and IT outfit based in Stewarton. It started years ago as my own email domain and home-lab project, then grew into something a bit more structured as friends, local businesses and community groups needed reliable hosting without nonsense attached.

By day I work full time in customer service and escalations. The rest of the time I’m building and maintaining the stack that powers the sites hosted here. If something breaks, I’m the one who fixes it. If something improves, it’s because I’ve spent another night tweaking servers, tightening configs or ripping something out that annoyed me.

I’ve also run StewartonWeather.com for years, complete with a full weather station, sensors, cameras and an unreasonable number of automations. That side of the ecosystem feeds into some of the tech and monitoring used across the hosting platform.

Outside of hosting and the weather station, I’m into orchids, carnivorous plants, home automation, Raspberry Pi setups and the usual collection of gadgets that quietly multiply when you're not looking.

4Development.Net isn’t trying to be a giant hosting company. It’s built for people who want someone competent, available and straightforward handling their site. If that’s what you’re after, you’re in the right place.
