Abivia Web Development and Hosting

Web site developers and designers can move, switch jobs, or change careers. Sometimes they just seem to disappear. If you depended on your developer to maintain your site, this can be a real cause for concern.

Although never a pleasant circumstance, if your site is built with a well known package like Joomla, you're in a much better position than you would be if you had a proprietary or custom built solution. This is because there are many alternative suppliers who can help you out, and if you have some technical knowledge you can even do it on your own.

This guide is designed to help give you the information you need to make an informed decision on how to proceed.

If you receive a confusing message that appears to be from your domain registrar, check it very carefully. We have seen many phishing attempts, hidden in messages pretending to be from well-known registrars such as Network Solutions and Enom.
