I call summer time birthday season, as there are a ton of family birthdays between June and July. 🙂 We are almost at the end with one to go. Just the hubby’s left  as far as family birthdays, but we also have many close friends with birthdays coming up too so are going to enjoy wishing them all the best as well.

This week in the office, I spent most of my time doing monthly security updates for clients and published the monthly news for the Gala Herald. The Gala is a lovely north end non-profit publication run by volunteers and relies on the support of  local community through ads, donations etc.  It keeps northenders in the Gala neighbourhood of Hamilton up to date on  community news and events. It is a great way to keep your name out there with people in your city!

I did some website updates for clients and followed up with som that are in progress of building websites and to follow up with some that recently launched new websites to make sure all is going well.  I also had a lovely meeting with a potential new website design client that lives in Alberta and am looking forward to  connecting with her again soon.

Check out the client websites I did some updates for this week!

I worked with a couple of my clients that were having issues with the forms on their websites. Sometimes this can be time consuming but for ongoing monthly clients is part of the service they pay for.

Which leads me to your tip for the week. If you take care of your own website updates and security, take the time once a month to test the forms on your website!  I know forms are often necessary and as long as you monitor their functionality occasionally you will never have to worry about them. Also use forms that put a copy of the requests on the admin area of your website so you can check to make sure you are getting the requests even if they don’t make it to your email for some reason.

So enjoy your weekend everyone! Summertime funtime! If you want to book some time with me, I would love to connect with you! You can always find me on Facebook
