Holiday/vacation time but what about your online business? Copyright 2005 Richard Grady
Laptop Battery For many of us, it is time to start thinking about packing
our suitcases and jetting off on our summer
holidays/vacation. When I had a 'normal' job, this was a
time to get out of the office and completely forget about
work for a couple of weeks. Things are somewhat different
now though as an Internet business never sleeps or takes
time off so how do you handle your online business when you
are supposed to be soaking up the sun on a far away beach?

Thinkpad Obviously if your business is large enough to have
employees, you shouldn't have too many problems and can, hopefully, leave things in the capable hands of your staff for a week or two. But in the event that you run a 'one man band' and don't have anyone to reply to emails and deal with orders while you are away then I am afraid it is down to you to look after things.

And then, of course, we have the Standalone Server product, which is called Acronis True Image Server for Windows or Linux and that will manage a single standalone server. What type of computers can we back up, because in a medium to a large sized, even some small sized businesses, who knows what kind of computers they have They may have laptops, they may have desktops, they may just have anything and everything
Laptop Computers 1. Close your website down for the duration of your
holiday. For me this goes completely against the grain -
one of the advantages of an online business is the fact
that it can earn you money whilst you sleep (and whilst you sunbathe). However some business owners do simply decide to shut up shop when they go away and write off a couple of weeks income against a stress-free break.

Laptop Computer 2. Find a local Internet cafe. For many people this is probably the easiest and most affordable option. Most tourist destinations have some level of public Internet access available at a reasonable price. Last year I even managed to get a half decent Internet connection on a tiny island in the middle of the Indian Ocean! The main downside in using Internet cafes is security. I have never been completely comfortable entering important passwords into public computers and have often ended up using two or three Internet cafes in the same resort and changing passwords on a daily basis! Slightly paranoid perhaps but it only takes one dishonest cafe owner to really put the spanner in the works.....

Desktop Computer 3. Take your laptop and connect via the hotel landline.
Most hotels have an IDD (International Direct Dial)
telephone in their rooms. This means you can dial straight
out of the hotel without having to go via the switchboard.
This being the case, you can hook your laptop up and dial
up just as you would at home. The cheapest way of doing
this is to do some research first and find a local Internet company that can offer 'pay as you go' dial up - don't dial into your home ISP as this will cost you dearly in international call charges. Be aware that not all countries use the common RJ11 phone socket and you may need to purchase an adapter socket. These are readily available on the Internet - just search Google for 'modem adaptor socket for (your destination)'. You should also check that the phone line you are about to plug into isn't digital - if it is, you could fry your modem. Ask the hotel reception or better still, get a tester unit that plugs in and checks the line for you - these are cheap and could save you a lot of problems. Whilst using dial up in this way is very convenient, it can be expensive (hotels are notorious for making huge profit on phone calls) and it is likely the connection will be very slow.
Notebooks 4. Take your laptop and find a wireless 'hotspot'.
Wireless networks are becoming more and more popular and
you will find them in many airports, hotels and resorts.
As long as you have a wireless network card or a
wireless-ready laptop, you can simply turn your laptop on
and access the network at super-fast Broadband speeds. You will normally have to pay for access but you can usually buy unlimited access for the period of your visit. If you really don't want to pay and have time on your hands, try turning on your laptop close to offices, an Internet cafe or some coffee shops - you never know, they may have a wireless network set up with no security meaning you can logon for free! This is my favourite way of accessing the Internet abroad - it is fast, affordable and I can use my own computer with all of my own software which makes it very convenient.
Lenovo 5. Use your laptop with a mobile/cell phone. Not an ideal option but if you are somewhere really remote it might be your only option! Remember that different countries use different cell phone frequencies so you need to make sure that your phone will work in the country that you are visiting. In order to keep costs down, sign up with a local phone service provider and a local ISP - this means that you will pay the lowest call charges possible (though they will probably still be pretty expensive). Connection speed is likely to be appalling but this might work for you if you are only expecting a few emails..... Personally, this option became unworkable for me several years ago - too slow and far too expensive.
Hard Drive 6. Use a laptop/PDA/Blackberry or similar with a GPRS connection. GPRS is a wireless technology which allows PDAs and similar to have an 'always on' connection in a similar way to Broadband. GPRS is provided via the local mobile/cell phone network. With GPRS, you pay not for the time that you are online but for the amount of data that you transfer. This means that if you set things up correctly you can just download your email headers, delete the ones that you don't need to read and then only download and reply to the important ones. Therefore costs will be kept to a minimum and it doesn't matter if the connection is slow (from a cost point of view at least) since you are only paying for the amount of data you transfer. Speeds should be quicker than a normal mobile/cell phone connection. Ensure you check that GPRS is available in the country that you are visiting - most common destinations can offer the service but you may find that some more remote countries are not yet GPRS enabled.
Travelstar Most important of all - enjoy yourself! :-)
