It’s been long overdue for a makeover, and after 2 months of development we’re pleased to announce the launch of our new and improved website.
Following the remote code execution vulnerability discovered in all versions of Drupal released prior to 28th March 2018, and patched in Drupal 7.58 and Drupal 8.5.1, websites may have been hacked if they have not been updated to Drupal 7.58 (or 8.5.1) by Wednesday, 11th April 2018, may have been hacked after the Drupal security team became aware of automated attacks attempting to compromise Drupal 7 and 8 websites using the vulnerability.
When we’re developing websites and apps our goal is to create value innovation. This happens in creating something better than the current solutions at a lower price.
While switching from Drupal to WordPress means you may need to give up certain features and functionality, but those things don’t matter if they complicate your ability to maintain and manage your website, to add improvements, or to complete software updates without the help (and costs) of a web developer.
This post contains important, time sensitive information about the security of your website if you’re running Drupal version 7.57 or below or Drupal 8.5 or below.
It’s 2018, and SEO (search engine optimisation) should be a key elements of your digital marketing strategy. So, what does it take to rank high in the search engines? . Here are three common SEO myths that have been proven wrong, along with some real-life examples to debunk.
Ordinarily, a minor WordPress update would come and go with little attention being paid to it. These minor updates usually fix a range of small bugs in one push or patch WordPress against a newly emerging security threat. However, the update from WordPress 4.9.2 to 4.9.3 did not go as smoothly as Indeed. and was rapidly pulled from public access just hours after the worldwide release. The reason? A pretty major bug had been introduced along with the update which prevents automated updates to future versions of WordPress. While it's nothing major in itself, you must manually update to keep receiving future automated updates or else your website will be stuck on version 4.9.3 until you manually update.
For our monthly and quarterly website updates and maintenance/support contract customers, we have already applied the update and you need to take no action. If you are not a monthly customer and would rather leave this stuff to the professionals, you can request a complimentary review of your site by getting in touch via email or calling us on 01793 230654.
How do you measure the success of your website? Conversion.
You could have heaps of visitors heading to your site, but those visits don’t really matter if you aren’t converting them into paying customers. All other traffic is essentially wasted.
Are you finding yourself with a lot of website visitor traffic, selling desirable services at competitive prices, but with very few paying customers? Then read on to find out why your site isn’t converting and what you can do about it.
For the past several years, Google has been leading the charge towards a more secure web by strongly advocating that website owners adopt HTTPS encryption. Beginning in July of this year, with the release of Chrome 68, Google's Chrome browser (the most popular browser in use today) will mark all HTTP sites as “not secure”.
Switching to HTTPS encryption for your website is now essential. If your visitors see a big "not secure" warning when they visit your site they will go elsewhere, most likely to a competitor who has already made the switch.
With all the interest in Russian hackers and a certain presidential campaign you'd be forgiven for thinking that only high-profile websites and individuals are targets for hackers. Not so.
Over the past week we’ve seen a 1900% (yes one thousand nine hundred) percent increase in the number of malicious login attempts to websites hosted on our servers. And we’re not alone. Across the internet Drupal based websites are seeing a worrying increase in suspicious password reset requests and malicious login attempts.
