PHP 8.2 stops getting security fixes on 31 December.

Most business websites run on PHP underneath. Nothing breaks on 1 January, which is exactly why it gets ignored. Every security hole found after that date just stays open.

On 23 October, business.gov.au warned small businesses about critical PHP vulnerabilities and said to confirm your developer or host has patched.

Check yours in two minutes:
→ WordPress: Tools → Site Health → Info → Server
→ Or your hosting control panel, under "PHP version"
→ 8.2 or lower: plan the upgrade before Christmas, and test it on a copy of the site first

Our care plans check this every month, so you don't have to.

The worry with any web or software job isn't the build. It's the invoice that comes later, bigger than the quote.

How we work:
✅ Reply within one business day
✅ Fixed-price quote in writing: what's in, what's out
✅ Built and tested on a staging copy
✅ Weekly updates on bigger projects
✅ No surprise scope or invoices

And if we're not the right fit, we'll tell you straight away.

Every business has a spreadsheet with a person's name on it. "Sarah's sheet." "Dad's quoting file."

The whole business runs on it, and only one person understands it. That's fine until they go on leave over Christmas.

Signs it's become your real system:
✅ Everyone asks that person to "check the sheet"
✅ There are two copies and nobody knows which is right
✅ The same numbers get typed in twice
✅ When it breaks, work stops

Sometimes the fix is a better spreadsheet. Sometimes it's Xero. Sometimes it's a small custom system. Either way, start by writing down what it actually does.

Nothing starts in January in Australia. Everyone knows it.

So if you want a new system live by February, the timeline runs backwards:
📅 Oct to Nov: scope it and agree a fixed price
📅 Dec: build it while things are quieter
📅 Jan: test it
📅 Feb: go live with everyone back

Miss the scoping window and it lands in April.

Got something you keep saying you'll fix "after Christmas"? Now's the time to decide.

5-minute check: whose name is on your business's .com.au domain?

If your first web developer registered it under their own business, it's technically theirs. That's fine until they close up or stop answering.

✅ Look up your domain at whois.auda.org.au
✅ Make sure YOU have the registrar and hosting logins
✅ Keep them where the business can find them, not in one person's inbox

When businesses move to our care plans, getting all of this into their name is part of the handover.

For most businesses that lodge their own BAS, the July to September quarter is due on 28 October.

So this week a lot of owners are sitting at the kitchen table matching bank lines to invoices.

The usual culprits:
→ Stripe, Square or PayPal pay out in lumps, net of fees, and someone has to split each payout back into the sales it came from
→ Website orders never reach Xero or MYOB as invoices, so GST gets worked out by hand
→ A job is invoiced in one system and paid in another, and the two never meet
→ Refunds happen on the website and nobody tells the books

None of this needs a new accounting system. Xero is good at what it does. The fix is usually a connection: each order lands in Xero as an invoice with the GST already right, and each payout is broken down into the payments and fees it contains.

Tradies get hit hardest. You invoice from the ute, get paid by card or transfer, and the matching waits for the weekend.

What's the one reconciliation job you'd most like gone before the next BAS?

Clinic owners: most of your patients find you after the front desk has gone home.

At 9pm, your website has to answer what reception would:
✅ Do you treat what I've got?
✅ Who will I see?
✅ Can I book right now?
✅ Referral? Health fund?
✅ Where do I park?

And all of it within the AHPRA advertising rules.

Try it tonight. Open your own website on your phone and see if you'd book.

7 kW or 22 kW? Most first-time EV charger buyers have no idea, and they shouldn't need to.

Most Australian homes are single-phase power. The bigger chargers need three-phase. Sell the wrong one and you've got a return and an unhappy electrician.

Shayona Trix sells EV chargers Australia-wide. We built their site so the catalogue helps people choose:
→ Products organised by spec
→ Separate paths for homeowners and fleet buyers
→ Guides next to the products

If your customers have to ring you to work out which product they need, your website isn't doing its job yet.

Free shipping Australia-wide sounds great on a banner. It's a lot less great on an order going to Broome.

One flat rate means your metro orders quietly pay for your remote ones, and some orders lose money before they're packed.

Better options:
✅ Rates by postcode zone: metro, regional, remote
✅ A higher free-shipping threshold for remote areas
✅ Weight bands for bulky products
✅ Click and collect for locals

And show the rule early. Nobody likes a surprise at the last step of checkout.

Online shop owners: Black Friday is Fri 27 November. Make your changes now, then leave the site alone.

The October checklist:
✅ Do a real test order on your phone, including Afterpay or Zip
✅ Check sold-out items actually stop selling
✅ Test your discount codes before the day
✅ Load your top product pages on mobile data
✅ Make sure your Christmas delivery cut-offs are right

From mid-November: no new plugins, no theme changes, no surprises.

We build and look after WooCommerce and Shopify shops for Australian businesses.
