You know you need to backup your photos but are you confused by all the cloud service options?
Whenever you think about all the options, it is totally overwhelming so you put it in the "one-day pile" and pray that nothing catastrophic happens to your phone or old hard drives. Sound like you?
Losing precious photos is something that happens every day to someone you know - even if you don't know about it. It has probably happened to you already.
You can totally backup your photos to a second external drive but the gold standard of backup systems is three copies of your photos on two different types of media and one in a different location.
THE CLOUD fulfils two of these criteria since it is a different location AND a different type of media which makes it a GREAT choice for a fail-safe system.
There are many cloud services - some you know like iCloud and Google - and some you might not such as iDrive and Backblaze.
How do you choose? Which one is right for you? What do they cost? What is good for sharing?
In this short course, I am going to give you the information you need to make informed choices about the cloud service you should use to protect your precious memories
