Prepare Now For Problems

They say failure to plan is planning to fail. I thought I had planned but then things happen that you don’t expect. You learn, but have to deal with things. It’s how things go.

This week I have been unavailable for most of the time due to an emergency. All my planning has kind of gone out of the window!

My default advice for bloggers is to

  1. Have a set of posts ready to go live
  2. Agree with another blogger to help you out if you are unavailable, share user accounts
  3. Take regular backups

This is usually sufficient although of course you can do more to keep things going. My problem was my wife was my nominated individual to keep my blog going, but she was out of the loop along with me.

The answer? Do a run through of your emergency procedures before you have a problem and try to anticipate issues. Seems common sense in hindsight, but these things often do!

    I have observed that sensible real estate agents all around you are getting set to FSBO Promotion. They are seeing that it’s more than simply placing a sign in the front property. It’s really concerning building connections with these suppliers who one of these days will become customers. So, after you give your time and energy to helping these retailers go it alone – the “Law connected with Reciprocity” kicks in. Interesting blog post.

    naturally like your website but you need to check the spelling on quite a few of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very troublesome to tell the truth nevertheless I will surely come back again.

    Hey great news male. Thanks for sharing. Although as far as i tried it will take pretty long time to obtain good results. One should have real patience to acquire desired results. Recently I tried out some web-sites for new ideas but I did not get a lot, which is really undesirable. The key to achieving success is being willing to understand. I think your site will be a good place for me to start out.
