It’s Disaster Week at WebDesign.com! (and that’s a good thing)
Thinking about what could go wrong with your business or your website is no fun, but it’s a lot better than dealing with events after things go wrong.
Because being prepared for, preventing, and knowing how to recover from disasters is so important – whether your a website owner or the web designer responsible for someone else’s site – it’s helpful to have “disaster strategies” in place before you ever need them.
This week WebDesign.com is hosting a full week of courses focused on preventing, mitigating and recovering from various disasters that can derail your business.
Check out the schedule of free live webinars below and register for the ones that make the most sense for your business. (Chances are that will be all of them.)
Remember, all times listed are Central Time, and classes are free to attend live. (Video replays are available to Premium Annual members at WebDesign.com and will be available under Courses in your Members’ Area shortly following the webinar.)
