Digital Shajra vs. Paper Shajra: Why the Old Way is Risky

Many families still use **paper family scrolls** or handwritten books to track their **genealogy**. While these are beautiful, they are very risky. A single house fire, a flood, or even humidity can destroy centuries of **family history** in seconds.

A **digital shajra** solves all these problems:

1. **It is Forever:** Your data is backed up in the cloud and **encrypted for security**.

2. **Easy to Update:** When a new baby is born, you just click "Add." No redrawing needed.

3. **Global Sharing:** You can **share your family tree link** with relatives in other countries instantly.

Don't risk your **family heritage** on a piece of paper that can rot or get lost. Use a **secure family tree software** like Shajra to build a legacy that can never be destroyed.
