Written from the day job, not from a search engine

We build and protect websites for a living. Every manual comes out of that work, so the examples are things we actually handled and the checklists are the ones we actually run. Where we made the mistake ourselves, we say so and name the property.

Each manual is written in plain English for business owners, with the deeper technical detail kept in separate notes you can hand to whoever looks after your site.
