Blog - Site Update 1

Welcome to the updated version of this website. I hope you like the new look

Search engines such as Google and others are constantly changing their algorithms. Meaning we website owners are forever having to update our websites to meet their requirements.

This update is the first step in this journey. The next step is to get the 's' added to 'http' which appears in front of our domain name. This apparently helps to make our website more secure.

It also means that websites with 'https' may appear above websites that only display 'http'. I know, it's boring!

However,  many websites will ask for your 'card details' (We don't) and the added 's' means that your transactions are encrypted making them much safer to use. So it's not all a waste of time.
