What do we call a non-technical person? [duplicate]

I'm writing some text for the website of my hosting company and I simply cannot figure this one out.

I currently have the following sentence:

We provide reliable hosting for creative professionals and X

I am very confused about X. I need a term for the following:

those who want their own website but do not have a creative professional hired, but rather handle everything on their own

Naturally, I cannot say:

We provide reliable hosting for creative professionals and non-technical people

Any help anyone?

My question is not a duplicate as the context is completely different. Normally this would not be a problem however in this case the term we're looking for is completely different than those already answered in the other question.


Solution 1:

We provide reliable hosting for creative professionals and for self-reliant clients / individuals.

Where the term self-reliant suggests a person or persons who have acquired a certain level of expertise without necessarily being professionals.

Solution 2:

Here are my two grains of sand:

"... for creative professionals and enthusiasts alike"

"... for users of all levels, from beginners to creative professionals"

Solution 3:

Any attempt to draw attention to their non-technical nature might be wrong (they might be very technically capable in other fields - just not websites) and, in any case, will inevitably have negative connotations to some (amateur, technophobe, noob, etc.).

Therefore, I suggest

We provide reliable hosting for creative professionals and the wider public

Solution 4:

You may refer to users:

User:

  • One who uses a computer, computer program, or online service. (AHD)
  • ....for creative professionals and other users.

Solution 5:

We provide reliable hosting for creative professionals and lay amateurs.

  • lay - (adj) - not trained in a certain profession : not having a lot of knowledge about a certain thing.

  • amateur - (noun) - one who engages in an art, science, study, or athletic activity as a pastime rather than as a profession.
