Tips for SharePoint Site Owners

By Brian Ewoldt | December 03, 2014

So you've decided to take on the task of becoming a SharePoint site owner! Before you dig in and set up your SharePoint site, there are some critical responsibilities you should consider. First, a SharePoint site is not a fire-and-forget web site. It requires your attention and ongoing tweaking to be the faithful companion you need it to be for your business. Without proper attention, a SharePoint site will become lonely as no one will want to visit or use it. It may feel neglected and become unruly.

It may even act out, by performing data dumps, bringing down servers, or becoming infected. To help you with your new role as the proud owner of a SharePoint site, LearnNowOnline has enlisted the help of SharePoint site whisperer Philip Wheat. Philip has collaborated with us in the past on our courses for SharePoint 2013 Application Model and SharePoint 2013 Administration. Now Philip has joined forces with us to create a couple of great courses designed for those of you who wish to take on the task of becoming a SharePoint site owner.
