Chris Davidson

Chris started working in IT before the term ‘information technology’ existed. He founded his consultancy, Active Presence, in 2002 and launched the annual Worldwide Digital Footprint Survey in 2017. The survey reports are challenging and have motivated many speakers to take action to improve their online image.

In February 2023 Chris published Why Your Website Doesn’t Work. This is the lead title in a collection of books under the Website Wisdom banner. He published the second title, Websites for Business Managers, in November ’23.

Also in 2023, Chris launched a new service, Easeo (pronounced ‘ease-oh’), standing for Easy Affordable SEO. This service helps business owners optimize their websites in a cost effective way.

Websites are easy. Effective, highly engaging business websites are hard. Having one will make your life better and your business more successful. Chris can help you. Ready?
