📺 Webinar Outline

This webinar covers a five-step checklist to audit your website’s risk:

  1. Who Controls Your Website? Check who manages your domain, hosting, software licences and renewals, and whether your business can recover access.
  2. Who Has the Keys? Review staff and supplier access, shared logins, passwords and account recovery arrangements.
  3. Could You Actually Recover? Understand whether your backups are recent, complete and usable, and who would restore your website.
  4. Is Your Website Doing Its Job? Check that enquiries, bookings, payments and customer access work from start to finish.
  5. Could Someone Else Pick It Up? Identify important knowledge, responsibilities and processes that depend on one person.
  6. Give Your Records a Home: Know where to keep business information, credentials and follow-up tasks.
  7. Choose Your Next Three Actions: Use the Website Control Checklist to prioritise gaps, assign responsibility and set review dates.

✅ Key Takeaways

  • Know which website accounts and services your business depends on.
  • Understand the difference between assuming something is covered and having evidence.
  • Ask better questions about access, security, backups and recovery.
  • Recognise that a working homepage doesn’t guarantee working enquiries or sales.
  • Record essential knowledge somewhere authorised people can find and use it.
  • Leave with three practical actions, each with an owner and a due date.
  • Recognise when a deeper website audit or professional review would help.
