Projects from May and June
A busy few months. Besides fine-tuning (a little bit) this main site (SevenSages.com), we've been trying to organize the newer site for all the tips and marketing info.
Seven Sages BBB Accredited
After years of building trust 
and business relationships, it was time to 'show off' with a recognized organization. So, since Seven Sages always had professional standards that mark a Better Business, we applied for BBB Accrediation.
Below is from the BBB.org website:
Check Mail and missing links
A big thank you to Gordon for letting me know I forgot to put the link for Check Mail on the new site.
And that the contact info and phone number are not as readily available as they should be.
New Design for SevenSages.com
It always takes way too long for developers to do their own websites, since we are usually busy taking care of everyone else. And we can sometimes wrestle with wanting perfection.
This site is no where near perfect.Projects from April
Several updates to websites, and still working on layout of new SevenSages.com site. One of the sites setup last month was re-designed.
Fowarding mail to AOL causes Spam Block
It seems AOL is not liking people forwarding their website mail to their AOL accounts.
The practice of using your website address, like This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and having it forwarded to your AOL account might have to come to an end.
Some people do this for various reasons, but usually it comes down to "but I'm used to AOL". Unfortunately, the advanced options you have with a real website email address are lost when you stick with the old, unprofessional AOL address.
New Logo for Seven Sages
A big thank you to Rocky Russo for working out a new logo for Seven Sages.Phishing and Fraud Attempt
They are good. The Bad Guys, I mean. They create official looking emails that look exactly like your banks email. But, of course, since they are 'Bad Guys', any info you give doesn't get to the bank. Well, eventually it does when they use YOUR info to get YOUR money.
Here is the latest example I received last week:
Bank Of America Alert: Online Access Suspension Message
(note the official logo coming directly from the bank's website)
AOL Spam Block fixed
Email block of mail from our servers to AOL has been removed.
I had to give them a call, and register the servers with AOL. They were pretty responsive, though it's odd that it takes a couple days for them to remove the blocks. Once registered, supposedly we will be notified by AOL if there is a reported issue, instead of them just blocking us.
