August 1 is a day every year to celebrate the accomplishments of Tim Berners-Lee and his colleagues for creating the world wide web. In 1989, the dream of being able to connect people and information all over the world through computers started to come to life. Beginning with one computer as the first web server, the internet has grown to what it is today, approximately 10,500 new websites being created every hour, according to PC World. There is no doubt about what an important contribution this has been to the world. For more information about the history of this day, visit NPR or National Today.
One of the great things about the internet is it changes all the time. Updating your website is key to keeping your web presence relevant and timely. Your website should be a living breathing thing that provides your followers with current information while making them want to come back time and time again to see what’s new. Your business can thrive with the right plan in place to have a solid presence on the WWW.
Another thing to keep in mind is that with everything changing all the time, so are security issues. It is extremely important to keep your site up-to-date for this reason alone. Keep your brand safe and protected from the vulnerabilities that are out there.
Take this day each year to remind yourself and your company how important it is to keep your site on the most current technology and update your content to stay on top of the pack. The more focused you are on staying up to date, the easier it is. Taking a lot of small steps instead of giant leaps occasionally is the way to go. We are happy to help you do just that.
