Blogging is about so much more than turning out quality content on a daily basis. Although that is, and probably always will be, the most important part of the blogging process, the fact of the matter is that this once hobby has since turned into a lucrative business venture.

We know that 8 out of 10 businesses fail, and as with most businesses, you are never going to succeed if you don’t put your own time and money into it.

Trust us, however, when we tell you that it’s well worth it in the end.

Highly recommended reading on VPN by VPNpro. In today's complexity of privacy certainly an article that will help you in securing your privacy and protect against cyberthreats.

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a network created by private companies to shield their customers against external surveillance while they surf the web, stream videos or download torrents. Commonly used by businesses to facilitate remote working and data protection, they are just as useful for everyday web users and are becoming even more popular in a world where online threats are mounting by the month.

We have come across a good guide to understand the principles of VPN (virtual private network), certainly a recommended reading!

For those that are not computer nerds, a VPN involves technology that adds a security layer to private and public networks, including broadband and internet hotspots. Translated to everyday lingo, a VPN is both secure and private for individuals and organizations to send and receive data over the internet. Think of it as your secret network that gives you access to personal internal systems, plus the benefit of being able to browse the internet without minions tracking you. It gives you a way into content that you might not be able to access otherwise, such as Netflix or BBC iPlayer.

Atol Solutions has embarked on a new venture with Create on a Whim, with owner and creator Amy Jones residing in Mishawaka, Indiana.

On a Whim provides services for Interior and Landscape Design, creates residential and commercial planters, as well as custom wreaths and gift baskets.

The Forge is established some years ago by Simon Schellevis in Friesland. He has asked Atol Solutions to revamp his current website (www.simonschellevis.nl). The main purpose of his presence on the web, is to show his portfolio of his works, for gates, displays, tools, sculptures, garden ornaments. Also he presents and gives exhibition of his tradesmanship on fairs, other forges and gives workshops.

He also designs and realizes custom works for people with a design in mind.

We have successfully ported the content of the current site and made it into a professional nice looking site, which also enables him to update and posts blogs and events that he participates in, such as the Frisian Museum Village in Allingawier. Naturally the site is now responsive for any device.

We are in the process of selecting a new hosting party and will migrate the new site to it. 

It has been a pleasure working with Simon and hope he gets a lot of traction on his new site, with all the state-of-the-art tools, firewall, backup facilities and the like.
