Often times we receive quite a few support tickets that might seem complicated at the time but the solution is so simple that we’d be foolish not to share. Upgrading your software with the latest releases is vital to keeping your program current, functional, and secure.

When a program is outdated, it’s akin to an automobile that hasn’t been serviced recently, it starts to act wacky and sometimes shut down. Programs react similarily so don’t forget to upgrade your software (and service your cars!).

Curious about your website statistics? Want to know where your site traffic is coming from? Check out Awstats!

Awstats is a feature that can be found under the Logs section in your sites’s cPanel and is a graphical representation among many others: the number of visitors, the pages most viewed, the length of time the visitor was navigating through your site, the OS and browser used to access your site, and the search keywords/keyphrases used to find your site plus much much more.

Awstats is “the best thing sinced sliced bread” and is a useful tool to aid in the marketing of your site.

We receive a lot of enquiries regarding the difference between our AU and US servers. People often wonder why would one should use the AU server when it costs more? Simply put, because it’s faster and makes your business look more professional. Below is the same site hosted on our AU and US servers. You’ll notice the AU version loads much, much faster than the US version, take particular notice of the respective Gallery pages and the time it takes for the images to load. Google also uses the AU server to include your site in “Australian” searches.

AU server: www.franipeni.com.au

US server: www.franipeni-us.info

Don’t just take our word for it, see it to believe it!!
