Need for a tutor

Lena

Many thanks for your reply and advice.

Yes, same site. We are trying to access the site and where necessary update/ alter the content. We have the late Webmasters laptop with the Dreamweaver programme on it but none of us have the knowledge of how to use it or indeed how to access the site  We are all now in our late 70's / 80's and it's all beyond us. The way things are the Web Site and 20 plus years work will go down the pan. All we need is some one to help us to keep it going. The Web Master died totally unexpectedly. We are all scrambling to save everything. Apologies for being on the wrong forum is it called?

If you are scrambling with things and admitting it is beyond you, I don't know that a tutor is what you need. If you go down the hiring a professional route, the first impression of the site to me is that it is outdated and needs to be updated to better maintain it. Otherwise in it's current form, it could be more trouble to maintain than otherwise necessary. This could mean updating on your current host to a template or CMS, or moving it off your host completely to a new solution that could be easier to maintain for non-technical users like a Wix/Webflow/etc.

Have you considered looking locally or inquiring with schools/universities or other local organizations to see about finding somoene who might be willing to do this for the historical or local value? That might be more targeted for you as opposed to broad forums like these that are not specific to your locale and as others have mentioned this no longer receives the traffic it once did as the program continues on a downward trend.

Personally speaking I would seek out someone to take over responsibilities instead of a tutor, but also consider that migration is likely necessary to keep maintenance costs down and to make the site more manageable by yourselves or others looking forward.
