Finding Time with Back-Up’s on Cyber Monday

Posted on July 20, 2009, under Time and Technology.

42-15654386Finding time to deal with sudden changes is something we wrote about last week when our web host went down and we lost our site (and mailing list).  Sudden change presents challenges on many fronts, including the practical and the emotional.

The great news is that, as of Saturday, our Finding Time site is up and running again!

We are now in the process of getting our mailing list set up with a new provider.  Be on the lookout for an e-mail with a confirmation link later this week.  We hope that you’ll click the link and continue your association with the Finding Time Community!

If you own or manage a blog or website, our recent experience can serve as a helpful reminder about how important it is to create and maintain regular back-up’s of everything.

We maintain a back-up of our entire Finding Time site on both a local hard drive and an external hard drive.  This enabled us to quickly upload all of our pages once we had established our connection with a new web host.  Had we not had these back-up’s, it would have been a gargantuan task to recreate the site – a task that would have ended up costing untold hours and dollars!

The Time Finder is a WordPress powered blog.  WordPress provides a very flexible, customizable platform for bloggers.  One of the key plugins that can be installed on your blog is the WordPress Database Back-up.

If you use WordPress and haven’t installed it yet, do so NOW!  This plugin will back-up all of the core elements of your blog at time intervals that you specify.  You can even set it up to e-mail the back up to you!

As we learned recently, back-ups can be life-savers!  They save untold time and money – and are an easy function to either automate or build into your routine.

Do you have back-up’s set up for your blog or website?  Have you used them?  Please drop me a line – I’d love to hear!

What if you could find another hour every day? You can! You are invited to sign up and download The New Finding Time Boundary Template. It’s FREE, and when you sign up you will also receive (if you don’t already) my FREE, weekly Finding Time Tips and my FREE, monthly Award-Winning Finding Time E-zine!

Let’s explore time together …
