Mobile Apocalypse!

Judgement day has been set.  The Four Horsemen of Google will ride on April the 21st, 2015, and forever change the rank and order of websites on their search results pages.  

Yes, it’s another Google Algorithm, but this time there’s no fluffy animal name to take the sting out of the tail.  Instead, they are giving us a no-nonsense, ‘compliant’ or ‘non-compliant’ test to identify and prioritise all websites that are considered to be (by Google) mobile-friendly.

Password Security and why it’s so Important Part 2

Lets be deadly serious for a second and ask our selves a question, how strong really are the passwords that we use to protect our electronic devices?  Now this is a question that is often overlooked, as we tend to think that we know best and that the details we provide will be secure enough to keep our devices safe and sound.

Password Security and why it’s so Important Part 1

Passwords – we all hate them! Annoying, hard to remember, capitols, numbers, symbols…. argh! Unfortunately, though, there are so many hackers out there, looking for data to steal and sell, or identities to exploit, or companies to sabotage, or simply trying to cause havoc, that secure passwords have become that most necessary of evils, both at home and at work.

A range of items that could be used for digital marketing

What’s the Scoop on Digital Marketing???

Electronic devices seem to have taken over the world as we know it, or should I say used to know it. Smartphones are everywhere now, along with tablets, game consoles, personal computers and many more new age items.  The fact of the matter is that people have become susceptible to digital marketing whether they like it or not.  It has become embedded within our technologies using platforms such as, social networking sites, e-mail accounts, websites and the ever-more popular apps, that are there for you to download with the simple click of a button.

Prevent Cyber Criminals from Infiltrating Your Social Networks!

Many of you may be aware by now that there are numerous amounts of ‘spearfishing’ villains out there, and that these days you have to be extra careful when using sites like LinkedIn and Facebook.  But did you know that these online crooks are now taking things a step further and actually spending the time to create fake profiles, which are then used for collecting other users’ data and information?
