We have been providing Joomla management services for over 15 years. That includes all aspects of running and managing a Joomla web site.
The Joomla 3 CMS is reaching end of life in August 2023 (and Joomla 5 is already in the beginning stages). If you have a Joomla 3 web site you need to get your site updated soon to ensure that it remains secure. But moving to Joomla 4 is NOT just a quick update. It requires a very careful plan to ensure that all your systems can handle Joomla 4 and then the migration needs to be done in a way that you don't break your site.
We have both the experience and the tools to ensure that your site is migrated with no down-time.
Also, this is a great time to make some updates to your template or the functionality of your site (you could save time/money if you make changes at the same time you migrate).
If you need your Joomla site migrated to Joomla 4 use the Contact Us link above or the home page button to schedule a free consultation to connect with us and help you get your site updated so it remains secure.
Many small- to medium-size companies (and even some large ones) tend to follow the allure of using lots of online services in order to provide their online functionalities. This is a GREAT way to save money (sometimes), and it can sometimes make it possible to do very complex things with only a few clicks of the mouse. However, there are a number of potential pitfalls and even some serious security risks for your company when you use these services.
Types of online services
Exactly what are we talking about when we reference 'online services'? It involves ANY processing or storing of data by an entity other than your own. That could be things like eCommerce/shopping carts, mapping/location services, email newsletter systems, to even just storing files in 'the cloud' (i.e. Google Drive, One Drive, etc.).
With each of these services that you use, you take on challenges and even legal risks just by opening an account with the service.
Here are a few of the potential challenges/risks that you may already be facing.
With much political (and some legal) energy focused at major online services, and revelations of on-going 'manipulation' of algorithms and content display effecting the ability of content creators to get their message to those who have an interest in the content they provide, we have put together a list of service alternatives for you to consider.
