The other day I was in a client’s office showing several members of their staff how to properly update their website and create new content. After all, content is king when it comes to the development of any website. However, a different subject cropped into the conversation when I started explaining the importance of properly [...]
Blogging is perhaps one of the best ways to build content for a website. Unfortunately, when you spend a lot of time working online, it’s not always easy.

The instructions on how to install a GoDaddy security certificate into cPanel’s WHM confuses me almost every time. Once a security certificate is installed, it doesn’t require much maintenance and I often will forget how to do it the next time ’round. But, the whole process is actually pretty simple. 1.

I’m not sure how users will eventually utilize [...]
Microsoft recently announced that you can now permanently enable a secure socket layers (SSL) connection to access your Hotmail account. This will give your Hotmail inbox a secure HTTPS connection.

It’s actually pretty easy, but the option to do so is hidden away (presumably because Yahoo really doesn’t want you to use the Classic view). After you’ve logged into your Yahoo Mail account, look for [...]
