Website(s) and Social Media

You may have more than one website don't forget.

  1. Are there any security vulnerabilities on your website(s)? e.g. https://pentest-tools.com/website-vulnerability-scanning/website-scanner
  2. Are you using a good quality, well supported Content Management System with regular updates?
  3. Do you have backup and security (Web Application Firewall) addons e.g. Akeeba for Wordpress or Joomla  https://www.akeeba.com/products.html , or a static site with security addons - examples: https://www.zenarmor.com/docs/network-security-tutorials/best-open-source-web-application-firewalls )?
  4. Do you have Strong passwords and do not share them? “Eight-character passwords are insufficient now… and if you restrict your characters to only alphabetic letters, it can be cracked in minutes." In any case, to be on the safe side, a password length of 12 characters or more should be adopted. Try https://www.passwordmonster.com  to check your password strength.
  5. IS THE SOFTWARE RUNNING YOUR WEBSITE UP TO DATE? You may have a hosting contract but nothing else….
  6. Are there backups of your website – regularly?
  7. Is there a place to collect and present Stories, images, audio, video? Consider a Wiki even if it is 'internal for volunteers etc? it is a knowledge base.

A bit about Steve

You may have come here looking for some help with a web site. If you have come here for my sailing, woodworking, cycling or family history pages pop over here.

OK I build web sites - usually for small businesses, community or volunteer groups. I know what it can be like for you - unsure about costs, what you get for your money, will it be worth it? I will be absolutley clear right up front. There will be no hidden charges and you will get my full support. You may not even have to pay anything until your site goes live. Your satisfaction is my focus. I can provide great references from other satisfied customers. There is nothing to lose by contacting me - I won't hassle you afterwards. I like to keep it worry free for you.
