their smart phones or tablets and your site will be picked

up by the Google crawlers.

Includes SEO and Quarterly ReviewsWe include Search Engine Optimization (SEO) in the de-

velopment of your site so you don’t have to pay another

professional to do this for you. We will load a Stat Plugin

for access to the information on how your website is being

used. Your searchability will be regularly monitored and

we’ll converse quarterly with you on all our ndings.

Dependable SupportYou receive up to 2 hours of training with your new Cus-

tom Manual, focusing speci cally on the type of editing or

administration you would like to handle for yourself.

Have an issue that you can’t x? Don’t get frustrated - whip

us o ff an email! We’ll help get it solved asap. Most glitch-

es only take some experience and a few minutes to solve.

Helping Small Business Succeed In A Big World

Unlike print media, your website is easy tochange or update. You can advertise in full

colour, as often and as large as you’d like.In addition, the cost to change content ona website is measured by the time it takes,while printed material is measured bytime and space or materials.

A website doesn’t replace the need forprinted material. It supports and buildsupon your print message. Maybe your

display ad tells your clients you have thebest customer service in the Kootenays...your website can detail the lengths thatyou will go to for your client. Tease them inprint, give them more online. A welldesigned site with targeted content,solid SEO and regularly updated can sup-plement your print materials daily, weeklyor monthly.

With a website you can give your clientsmany reasons to purchase your product orservice. A professional, customized websitewill help strengthen your brand, and makeyou stand out from the competition.A website will drive more customersto your physical location.

Advertise multiple ways on multiple days.

Having a websitefor your business today,is like having had ayellow pages ad

Online Privacy For FamiliesTe Offi ce of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada has

aunched House Rules - a new interactive tool for familiesaimed at helping parents manage the online risks facingtheir children.

“We want families to consider their online behaviour andhow personal information may be collected, used and dis-closed so that children will learn to think twice before sharingany sensitive details,” Commissioner DanielTerrien says.

“Having a privacy plan setting out the family do’s anddon’ts can help everyone work together to protect privacy.”

Parents are invited to use the tool to assess how their chil-dren interact online through games, mobile applicationsand social networking sites as a means of starting a dia-ogue on safe and responsible surng.Te tool off ers simple

tips parents and children can customize into their very own

house rules that can be printed off and posted in a commonarea as a reminder of how to protect privacy online.

Te Offi ce of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada isalso unveiling a new tip sheet for individuals to help allCanadians become more familiar with the basics of pri-vacy protection.

We’re hosting an open house and discussion to update you on the results of a recent risk

assessment regarding public access across the Hugh L. Keenleyside Dam. We’d like to hear

your feedback, as the input we receive from the community will assist us in finding a

long-term solution.

Where: Castlegar & District Community Complex, 2101 6th Avenue.

When: Thursday, February 11, 2016

Time: Open house: 6 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

Presentation: 6:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Discussion: 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.

A recent risk assessment for the Hugh L. Keenleyside Dam determined that allowing traffic to use

the dam deck as a roadway is a high risk activity with serious potential consequences. This is due to

the dam deck’s unusual configuration, poor or obstructed sight lines, driver inattention and failure

to obey posted speed limits. The risk assessment looked at potential options for keeping the dam

deck open for public use, and found that there are no reasonable safety measures that can be put

into place to ensure worker and public safety, and recommends that the dam deck be permanently

closed to public access.

For more information, please contact Mary Anne Coules at 250 365 4565.
