Website Backup Service Company Offers Do-It-Yourself Advice

Raleigh, NC, October 24, 2009 --(PR.com)-- When asked why they would try to help users avoid needing their services, company founder, Johnson Davis, said, "I started this company because I saw a problem. So many people seemed to assume their hosting provider was backing up their website, only to find out too late that that just isn't so. As a consultant for many years, the one thing I almost always discovered when analyzing a new customer's web resources was a complete lack of a recovery plan. Unfortunately, many of my customers felt they couldn't afford even a modest additional fee to keep their web sites protected. For some time I have tried to find a business model that would allow me to offer the service for free, supporting it with advertising or sponsorships, but my success with that has been very limited. I decided that the best route was to just give people the guidelines for a safe backup and recovery plan, letting them do the work themselves."

Mr. Davis concluded, "I have no concerns that this will undercut my own business, either. While I hope many will take advantage of our free Do-It-Yourself website backup plan, I know there will always be a place for our professional service. After all, most of us can mow our own lawns, but that hasn't put lawn care professionals out of business."

The guidelines are currently published at http://backupmywebsite.biz/howto.html. "Backup My Website" is a fully automated online backup service offered by Jotada.com, designed specifically for web sites.
