Hello my name is John Ortmann, and I am the founder of Victoria Web Design.

John Ortmann
I would like to start out by sharing a little history on how Victoria Web Design got started. It was early 1998, and I decided it was time to start my own part-time business, while continuing to work shift work at a local chemical plant.

My concept for a business was a really unique model that involved doing preventive maintenance on houses. Well, one of the first things I needed for my newly formed small business was a website. I'm a hands-on kind of guy, so I decided I would attempt the website construction myself. As soon as I was finished with the website, one of my co-workers asked me to build his company's website also. I was hesitant at first because I really wanted to stay focused on my original entrepreneurial goals. Before I had finished the second website another co-worker approached me about doing his website also. From that day forward, building web sites felt like the direction I needed to go.
