Good to know
- Register the domain name in the client's own name. Losing a domain when a designer disappears is a common, painful problem.
- Ontario organizations with 50 or more employees must make public websites meet WCAG 2.0 Level AA accessibility under the AODA. It is good practice for everyone.
- Agree in writing who supplies photos. Using a photo found on Google can lead to a copyright demand letter.
