While the cost of pc and computers continue to go down Cheap Yevhen Konoplyanka Jersey , servicing them can still cost you an arm and a leg. I’m going to tell you a few simple steps for finding professional and inexpensive pc repair service in your location.


1). Stay Out of the Yellow Pages and Storefront Companies
The reason for this is clear. Even a business card size ad in the Yellow Pages can set a company somewhere around $500-2500 per month or more depending on the location. A small storefront will also cost a couple thousand dollars per month of overhead and when taking into account the price of utilities and other bills you’ve got a huge sum of money needed every month to keep a company up and running.


For these traditional repair shops to remain successful they need to pass away the prices onto the clients. You see that flashy half page color ad in the Yellow Pages? You’ll be the one paying for it if you bring your laptop there.


2). Look on Google
The Yellow Pages are a thing of the past. These days, whatever you’re searching for, Google will find it. Type in “pc repairs [your city]” or “netbook services [your city]” into Google and you’ll instantly find a list of companies in your area including maps Cheap Vitolo Jersey , place pages, customer reviews, and more.


Getting onto the results page of these searches isn’t a matter of money. No company can pay Google to be displayd at the top of organic search results. Who is displayed on this list is determined by a number of algorithms that considerately checksdeduce how relevant a repair shop or webpage is to what you’re searching for.


3). Search on Classified Advertisement Websites
There are plenty of online classified advertisement webpages where you can acquire cheap computer repair services and the website listed above is an awesome place to start. Placing an advertisement here is free Cheap Vicente Iborra Jersey , so they tend to attract smaller companies that are looking to work harder for your coin.


4). Ask For Qualifications
If you call a computer technician you found on Cragistlsit or any other internet classified advertisement, remember to ask “What makes you qualified to repair my computer?” Online classifieds are a fantastic way to find accomplished and cheap laptop technicians, but because advertising here is free it always attracts more than a couple pretenders with little to no experience who are looking experiment with your pc at your expense. With a couple clear questions you can instantly weed out the professionals from the pretenders.


“Are you running this company full time?”
“Have you worked in the laptop industry before? Where and how long?”
“Do you have a website?”
“Do you hold an A+ Certification?”
“How long have you been in business?”


If they are comfortable answering a couple simple questions Cheap Timothee Kolodziejczak Jersey , they likely have real qualifications running a business and dealing with clients and are probably the real deal. If they don’t have much to say or are caught by surprise, you should look somewhere else.


5). Inquire About Guarantees
Before dropping off your computer or notebook computer to a technician, inquire about their guarantees. If they cannot fix the issue Cheap Steven N'Zonzi Jersey , will you still have to pay for the service? If you are quoted 2 hours of labor but the problem takes 8 hours to repair, will they honor the original quote or charge you greater? What’s the usual turnaround time and can they guarantee to fix your problem within a reasonable time frame? You need to ask these questions BEFORE you drop off your computer. Don’t assume ANTHING!


6). You Get What You Pay For
Paying a lot doesn’t guarantee you perfect service. In the case of storefront companies, their huge overhead keeps them from hiring real professionals and they have to resort to hiring inexperienced high school and college kids for $10-14 per hour and charge the customer $100-$150 per hour for their services. You for sure won’t get your money’s worth there.


However Cheap Sergio Rico Jersey , technicians that charge too little for their service can also be a headache. If something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. If the normal price for in-shop pc repairs at most storefronts in your city is $85.00 – $120.00 per hour, except to pay at least $30.00 – $60.00 per hour for a qualified technician working out of his home office. It is no different than hiring a plumber or electrician. It’s a skilled trade that requires plenty of education and experience Cheap Sergio Escudero Jersey , and the technicians who have it will expect fair payment for their repair.


Advertisements such as: “Will service any computer problem for $25.00 flat rate” is something you actually want to stay away from. These are inexperienced high school kids with little to no education or qualifications. Without anything substantial to offer or leverage, all they can compete on is the lowest cost. You wouldn’t take your car to a mechanic willing to work for $40.00 flat rate would you? Your computer is no different.


7). Build An Excellent Relationship
The truth is that problems will continue to pop up from time to time. Your pc will need continuous maintenance to keep running smooth, fast Cheap Sebastian Cristoforo Jersey , and error free. If you find an excellent laptop technician make sure to form a marvelous relationship. If they provide you with awesome computer service at a great price, be sure to show your appreciation. Offer to submit a quick review or testimonial. Ask for some business cards and send a couple references their way. Doing a little extra for them will ensure that they will do a little more for you next time you have an issue that needs to be repaired.
