FoxPro Legacy System Support and Life Extension Future bug fixes and additional features can now be added much more easily. Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)Yes, we have heard the wise words that if you write your website honestly, you won't need to indulge in any SEO Black Arts. And foolish, we came some way to believing what was said... However, changes, apparently brought in by Google's coterie of children's picture book animals - principally pandas and penguins - dispelled this quaint and trusting thought from our minds. Even though our web authoring and the readability of our pages had been checked using the eyeballs of real human people, this was not, it seems, good enough... Panda says "No" Our major sin was using certain words too often. So we have had to do a copyrighting job to adapt many pages so that they use language in the approved way. In most places, you won't notice the difference. Sometimes, though, the approved language can seem a little stilted and less natural than the original.

We support a fairly significant legacy FoxPro database system and we have been undertaking the renewal and refreshment of the setup, without significantly changing the core system itself (which is a helpdesk with considerable bespoke extensions).
