Unfortunately\u2026 Servers do fail. Websites get hacked. And crucial website files can accidentally be deleted. Are you and your team prepared for the worst?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\">Most website owners have a false sense of security in regards to how they\u2019ll recover from a website disaster. Backups are your last line of defense when things go terribly wrong. And, a reliable backup system can be the difference between a care-free day at the park with your family and a mental breakdown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\">This talk will approach the idea of \u2018Backing Up\u2019 as a strategic disaster recovery system as opposed to a mere copy of website files. We\u2019ll cover concepts like \u2018Redundancy\u2019, \u2018Single Point of Failure\u2019 and \u2018Cold Storage\u2019. If you\u2019re a small business owner or website administrator, then this talk is for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peter La Fond is the Founder and CEO of My Internet Scout, LLC, a digital marketing firm serving businesses of all sizes in locations across the country.
