Celebrating National WebMistress Day: What It Means and Why It Matters to You
Business owning takes a village.
Did you know that August 26th is National WebMistress Day? It is a quirky-yet-powerful day to celebrate the unsung heroes of the internet – women who have shaped the web, one website at a time.
Yep, I know it seems like every day is a new holiday on the internet…and you can honestly probably thank a woman for much of that (Sorry, not sorry)! Established in 2016 by Kat Valentine and National Day Calendar, National WebMistress Day annually recognizes women in web development, design, and digital marketing.
Despite the tech industry's male dominance, women have been at the forefront of creating accessible websites, innovative designs, and engaging content. This day is a shout-out to all of the amazing women who balance creativity and technical skill to make the internet a better place.
Why This Day Matters to Me: As someone who assists business owners in building and managing their digital presence, this day speaks to my passion for helping others thrive online. Whether it's helping with the small stuff as a Virtual Assistant, or designing a sleek website and managing your brand’s online identity, my goal is to make your digital journey seamless and stress-free. National WebMistress Day isn't just about celebrating women in tech; it's about acknowledging the vital role we play in helping businesses succeed in the digital age.
