23.01.2022 Wi-Fi Security The confusion for Australians over which needs to be patched, hardware or software continues for the security flaw in Wi-Fis secure encryption. It is a reminder that we must be vigilant on updating all our devices, desktops, tablets, phones and anything that uses Wi-Fi in this case.

23.01.2022 Social Media for Business There has been a lot written about social media and its benefits for business, but Id like to go over a few simple reasons why we feel dipping your toe into the water might be worthwhile.

22.01.2022 To follow on from our post that websites will need to move to secure pages using SSL (https on your address), Firefox is following suit and perhaps going further to warn website visitors that the website is not safe. I find the term safe to be a slightly misleading but its true that using secure certificates on your site now carries lots of advantages for both users and website owners. https://www.gizmodo.com.au//firefox-may-soon-start-public/

20.01.2022 It seems it's easier to target ISP's and Telco's for underdelivering than it is to take aim at the real source of the problem, NBN Co and the Governments fibre alternatives. https://www.computerworld.com.au//new-rule-seeks-to-stop/

18.01.2022 The Value of Your Own IP Address Weve written a new article on the value of using your own IP address to avoid getting onto email blacklists. Read the article here... https://www.awe.net.au//the-value-of-a-fixed-ip-address.php

17.01.2022 The Value of a Good Domain Name Although listed in our top 8 tips on domain names, I thought Id follow up on the subject of tip #5, the value of good domain names. Read the full article - https://www.awe.net.au//the-value-of-a-good-domain-name.php

17.01.2022 DOMAIN NAME HELPFUL TIPS Tip 1. Where possible register your country specific domain (eg. yourdomain.com.au). This will help to identify where your business operates and helps Google deliver location based content in search results. (Also see tip 7). Tip 2. Also see if the generic domain (eg. yourdomain.com) is available. If not, register it as well. This can help when people forget to add the .au when they type your web address (you dont want your customers going to an unr...elated or missing website). Tip 3. Avoid hyphens and numerals in domain names. There are some exceptions, but generally avoid it if possible. If you do, it might help to also register variants of the domain to capture mis-spellings. Tip 4. Avoid using acronyms - unless its a well-known tradename or catchy. Although easier to type, a domain like xyz.com doesnt mean as much to people or Google. Tip 5. It can be helpful to register a domain that contains high value keywords that relate to your business, business name or services. This will add relevance for Google rankings and people can see what you do even before visiting your website. Tip 6. If you have a domain that is easy to misspell, register domains with the common misspellings and redirect them to your website so you dont miss out on visitors. Tip 7. Australian .com.au domains are more regulated than generic .coms. Your domain name needs to be "closely and substantially connected to the registrant" and you need to have an ACN or ABN. For other rules and limitations refer to the Australian Domain Authority policy: www.auda.org.au/policies/2012-04/ Tip 8. Seek advice before you register a domain. Its a challenge to change domain names down the track as you will lose the valuable reputation, reviews and rankings on search websites like Google.

17.01.2022 At the same time NBN announces a doubling of revenue to almost AU$ 2 billion, they announce instead of improving fixed wireless issues, they want to slow down upload speeds to squeeze out some more download speed. Pity they couldnt use some of the additional revenue to improve speed rather than reduce it. https://www.itnews.com.au//nbn-co-plots-upload-speed-cut-t

14.01.2022 A change to .au domains on 1st July 2018 means that instead of the fixed 2 year domain renewal period, the option to renew from 1 to 5 years is now available. Its possible not all domain registrars or resellers will offer the full range of options but most should do so, if not now in the future.

14.01.2022 Something Very Scary about Data Retention in Australia A surprisingly long list of Government agencies could possibly access your meta data from Telcos. Whats the harm with that I hear you ask? Well take a look at the list of organisations and departments that can request this information - the greater the exposure, the greater the risk to your privacy, particularly from poor security. https://www.computerworld.com.au//data-retention-centrel/

13.01.2022 Concerning news coming from NBN Co regarding the possible introduction of a different pricing for streaming service data such as Netflix, Stan and Amazon's Prime. This certainly appears to be NBN Co's attempt to increase pricing by targeting specific users for a service that the NBN was made for and has made possible. Let's hope this goes nowhere. https://www.itnews.com.au//nbn-co-floats-its-own-netflix-t

03.01.2022 Microsoft Abandons Windows Phone Seems Microsoft has finally conceded defeat on the mobile phone market. Although they will still support existing phones with updates and patches, they will no longer supply or develop the phones. It was always going to be an uphill battle against two top performers in Apple and also Samsung with the Google Android operating system, especially with Apples CarPlay or Android Auto integration with a number of vehicles. Although Samsung faltered... with one phone model bursting into flames, it was still only one and fixing the issues was always going to happen. Unfortunately Microsofts bungle with Windows 8 left something of a bitter taste and didnt make for a competitive phone. Interesting this coincides with Google bringing out their new model of the Pixel not surprisingly named Pixel 2. https://www.itnews.com.au//microsoft-is-officially-retirin

01.01.2022 The trouble with introducing laws on encryption is that it puts citizens and businesses privacy and security in danger. It also limits a businesses ability to protect its customers.
