In this fast-paced digital world we live in, where businesses have to run just to stand still and the “next big thing” turns out not to be the next big thing 6 months later, it can be extremely challenging for businesses to work out where best to invest their digital dollars. Exactly where are your…

We’ve just spotted a website that reports on the “Distribution of content management systems among websites that use .gov“. The results are overwhelmingly in favour of Drupal, at 31.6% of all .gov websites (presumably worldwide) as at 28 March 2013. After Drupal comes Sharepoint, then DotNetNuke, Ektron, Percussion, Joomla, then WordPress. However if you look…

I wrote this article about Itomic pre-paid service contracts nearly 3.5 years ago, and it’s still good today! But we still feel a timely reminder/update is in order. There’s no such thing as a finished website. There’s always more you could do. What’s more, sometimes websites “break” all by themselves. Put all that together and it…

Arguably the top 3 open source website CMS (Content Management Systems) on the planet are: Drupal, WordPress, and Joomla. Unfortunately their huge popularity comes at a price: they’re more attractive to mischief makers (i.e. hackers) than less popular systems. So keeping your site updated with the latest security patches (much like keeping your PC’s anti-virus…

Google Chrome continues its upward march in global populatiy, and Internet Explorer (IE) its downward spiral, as this graph clearly shows. It’s incredible that only a few years ago, Internet Explorer was so completely dominant. At time of writing, there’s little to suggest that Google Chrome won’t stop rising, and IE won’t stop falling. But…

Building and owning a website can and should be a positive and rewarding experience. But just like starting a new business, it’s tempting to focus on the easy and positive aspects of the new venture, and to ignore the hard (or even negative) parts! Here’s our top 10 list of the “hard parts” that existing…

The team at Itomic are pleased to announce our new “one number to rule them all” telephone number: 1300 ITOMIC (or 1300 486642 when you type that on your telephone keypad) Yes, that’s the only number you have to remember to contact either our Perth or our Melbourne office.

This is to announce that in January 2013, Itomic’s Melbourne office is on the move! We’ve been in the same office in South Yarra since we’re opened our Melbourne doors in 2008, and now it’s time for a change. Why? #1 reason by far is that it will dramatically reduce the commute time for the…

The Itomic offices, Perth and Melbourne, are officially closed from Monday December 24th through to Friday January 4th (inclusive). Which means that our official “all hands on deck” day back will be on Monday January 7th. Rest assured that all sites that we host will of course remain monitored for “uptime”. Allthough we can’t guarantee…

Why do websites break all by themselves? One of the most frustrating aspects of owning a website is that sometimes they “break”. One day something was working just fine, the next day not. So for example, one day your ‘Contact Us’ form is successfully sending emails to your sales team, and the next day it’s…

Earlier this month, Itomic Melbourne were delighted to be in a position to host a Drupal Code Sprint at our offices in South Yarra and to provide the necessary refreshments.

We’re very pleased to report that, today, one of our website hosting servers achieved a full year of 100% uptime. That’s 24/7 of uninterrupted operation for all the websites hosted on it. There are a wide range of reasons why the vast majority of servers never achieve 100% uptime for a year or more. Typical…
