Resiliency is what happens when the environment changes. Just in Time seems like a lifetime ago. Inflation, labor shortages, and supply chain are the challenges of the moment. The key is to anticipate what the future storms might be and how weather them and even thrive when circumstances change.
I always smile a little when a new client asks about website security and backups early in our conversations. It is a nice clue that we have found a kindred spirit that is thinking long term and about how to be resilient.
Change can be devastating or it can present incredible opportunity. The difference is in how you have prepared for what is next. Let's prepare together

Hosting with interGen gives you so much more than just server space for your website! In addition to dedicated server space, regular updates, snapshot backups, and outstanding customer service, our Subscription Service provides our clients with key performance tools you won't find with the typical web hosting company.
With each new client, we do a performance analysis to make sure that your site is secure and fast - two metrics that matter to both your users and the search engines. We also make sure that you have access the analytics that provide you measurable data about when, where, and how users are finding your website.

Ticking the "I'm not a robot" checkbox is a thing of the past for your website. We have upgraded all our sites to use Google's Invisible reCAPTCHA service, which is able to differentiate humans from bots without additional input from the website user.
reCAPTCHA is a free service that protects your website from spam and abuse. reCAPTCHA uses an advanced risk analysis engine and adaptive CAPTCHAs to keep automated software from engaging in abusive activities on your site. It does this while letting your valid users pass through with ease.

There are really three factors to consider when assessing possible podcasting solutions.
- Reach
- Workflow
- Cost
Podcasting reach by publishing to multiple podcasting directories
Reach is an issue in that the more platforms you post the audio to, the more avenues you are providing for people to "discover" the content.

interGen loves Joomla! We of course hear about Wordpress all the time. We have been supporting a large number of Wordpress sites for years. There is a lot to like about Wordpress, mostly its marketshare. From time to time it is helpful to talk a little about why we love Joomla so much.
Before we get to the really good stuff, it is helpful to acknowledge what Joomla is not.
