Three things to check before your volunteer webmaster leaves
Most of the websites we take over were built by a volunteer who has since moved on. Three things worth writing down before the handover, none of them technical.
What actually happens when WordPress asks to be updated
That notice in your dashboard is not a nag. Here is what an update really changes, and why we always try it on a copy of your site first.
Your website is offline. What to check before you panic
Most sites that have disappeared are not hacked and not broken. Four things worth checking before you start ringing round.
Service times belong on a page, not in a PDF
A PDF is a photocopy that happens to live online. If your service times are locked inside one, your visitors are working harder than they need to.
Being found when someone searches for a church nearby
Most people looking for you are typing something into a phone while standing somewhere. Three unglamorous things decide whether they find you.
Backups are only real if you have restored one
Everybody has backups. Far fewer have ever tried putting one back. The difference only shows up on the worst possible day.
