Wondering what expenses EM incurs? Here are the major ones:
emptymirrorbooks.com — plus .net & .org to protect our brand)
We have a VPS. Since the site and the number of visitors to it are growing quickly, in 2018 we’ll need to upgrade or go to a dedicated server.
The site is backed up daily to AWS and also to an offline backup drive, to be used if the site should ever become compromised.
The entire hosting account is backed up weekly for easy restoration should something catastrophic happen to our webhost or to the account.
Necessary to help prevent the situations noted above.
