.au direct, Australia's newest domain namespace enables Australians to register domain names directly before the .au for the first time (e.g. getyour.au).

The Priority Allocation process concludes on 20 September 2022 (23:59 UTC on 20 September 2022 / 9:59AM AEST on 21 September). Priority Allocation provides registrants of .au domain names licensed before launch priority to apply for the matching .au direct name.

If no priority application is received for a .au direct match name by that date, it will become available for registration by the public on 3 October 2022 (3 October 2022; or 8:00AM AEDT on 4 October).

=============

As well as being a shorter domain, the other important reason to get your .au domain is for brand protection. If you haven't registered or contested your .au by September 20, you risk having a competitor, scammer, bot or cybercriminal purchasing the .au equivalent of your .com.au domain. They can then do as they wish with this domain (including pretending to be your business) or other harmful activities.

Identiti can register your .au domain on your behalf, and can assist if your preferred .au is contested. Get in touch to discuss your .au domain.

Some words mean different things here in Australia than they do anywhere else. Across the globe, a station will help you travel from 'A' to 'B'. In Australia...

Today we have launched an important new system for our existing clients with a WordPress site - vulnerability reports. This is an automated system that will email you once per week if your WordPress site has a known vulnerability. The email will contain a summary of the vulnerabilities, and a link to view a detailed report.
The detailed report contains more information about the vulnerabilities, and our recommended actions.

Ofcourse you can opt out receiving these, but we recommend against this as these are an important step in safeguarding your website.

Get in touch with us if you would like to to discuss how you can perform WordPress updates yourself, or have us do them for you, either on an ad-hoc basis or by signing up to one of our WordPress Maintenance Plans.

Vulnerable plugins and themes are the #1 reason WordPress websites get hacked. There have been some pretty major vulnerabilities found in major Wordpress Plugins recently, including WooCommerce.

The best way to avoid your site containing vulnerable plugins is to be on a WordPress Maintenance Plan, where we routinely update the Wordpress core and plugins, and are alerted immediately to any issues with your site.

If your website runs WordPress, and is not being updated regularly, get in touch with us for more information.

The Community Business Bureau - CBB website went live earlier in the year, and is a project we are quite proud of. A lot of custom backend development went into this to make it really easy for the client to build detailed but consistent, content-heavy pages, that aligns with their style guide.

CBB are a long-term client (we built their previous site too) and it was a pleasure to work with them again.

CBB is a social enterprise focused on building the capacity of Australian not for profits through salary packaging and business consulting.
