About Us
Debby Gilbert is a website developer, business coach, and the driving force behind Outrageous Fortune Tech Services. With experience in various career chapters (teacher, consultant, director) she has now pivoted to ALL things digital! We are rapidly approaching the day when everyone will need a personal and/or business website.
Are you prepared?
Side Hustle
Let’s say you have a “side hustle” that includes making delicious yeast rolls and you offer them for sale during the holidays. What if you had a customized website where you could control how many dozens of rolls would be available per day and customers could sign up and pay directly on your site. Your time is now spent doing what you love, not explaining your offer, not juggling scheduling, not collecting payment. Just baking.
Extra Curricular
Let’s say you have a child blessed with athletic abilities. What if you had a place where you could gather all of their game video clips, practice and game schedules, and action photos? A customized website where family, friends, and maybe even recruiters could go for up to date information about your kid and how amazing they are!
Performers
Let’s say you are a performer and an audition requires an online submission. Can you quickly find, amidst your computer, phone, and all various social media posts, the exact clip you are looking for? Or can you create, save, submit, and ever find it again? What if you had a customized website where all of your clips, headshots, reviews, resumes, and contact info could all be in the same place, available for everyone?
New Endeavors
Let’s say you finally said enough is enough and you wrote that novel! Now what? What if, as you are contacting those publishers, you had an excerpt, your research, a plot synopsis, some book club questions, your professional author headshot, and some good reviews from friends, all in one place? One-stop information central about you and your project.
The way you and your clients interact with your website is really only limited by imagination. My creativity and digital experience is next-level and I will put that to work for you. Let me show you what’s possible. Book an Exploration Zoom and together, we’ll dream, plan, and then put your new website and business plans into play!
A little more about me: I love puzzles, animals, original Coca Cola, books, the beach, and most of all, family!

Client Reviews
“Debby listened to my general ideas of who FamilyStoryTree visitors might be and what I wanted to convey to them. She listened to my answers to her questions. Then Debby and Darby created a website design, and Debby again listened to my comments and tweaked it. I write the blog articles, but Debby and Darby provided me with a visually attractive framework to present them to FamilyStoryTree visitors.
During the process of designing and building FamilyStoryTree, Debby listened, helped me focus my vision, and was patient with my timing. Very patient. She also encouraged me when I felt overwhelmed with life and technology.”

“I knew I needed a great website but had no idea what I wanted. Then I met Debby Gilbert. She listened, suggested and experimented. And then she came up with the website of my dreams.”

“Can’t recommend Outrageous Fortune Tech Services enough! Debby asked great questions and had a great process in place to help her understand the aesthetic I was looking for in my author website, which in turn had her giving me so many more ideas I hadn’t even considered. I’ve had so many compliments on the site — including from a woman who teaches authors how to create websites (!!). On top of that Debby actually succeeded in making the process a fun collaboration throughout. I opted for the maintenance package and would never go without it. Anytime I run into an issue — whether it’s actually something technical or just ‘I have this idea’ or ‘I want to add a new review and can’t figure out how to change the font’ — one quick e-mail and it’s fixed. And when I haven’t bugged her for a while, she checks in with me on her own! (Who DOES that?)
Talented tech, creative marketing consultant, and your very own cheerleader all rolled into one. Ten Stars!”Cat Jameson, Author
