I concur with this, but also in the sense that, despite us being in 
Devon / Cornwall there is a lot of expertise here,   we should try and 
promote that. As we emerge from this pandemic, then any business leads 
can't be a bad thing.

I don't see a problem with an article on for example cyber security, 
with if you would like further help please go to <url> included near the 
end usually.

I agree on WordPress too,  it may not be perfect,  Not sure if the less 
plugins you use then that helps to reduce potential security threats or 
problems generally.  esp if one plugin is causing a problem, (which 
happened recently)
