Wondering why in the search engines index, your Joomla! links appear both with and without "www" ?
Until you set the preferred domain to tell search engines how to display URLs in their index, the website will have issues with duplicate content.

SEO disadvantages:

The pagerank will be divided to both versions of the website.
Not to mention that spiders will have a harder time to discover the fresh content because they will be forced to index both versions of your Joomla! website. (spiders have limited bandwidth when crawling a website).

This duplicate content issue can be eliminated easily:

1. choose from Google Webmasters Tools the preferred domain
2. set a 301 redirect

Hackers, take overs, denials of service.. what a mess!

We launched RSFirewall! to secure Joomla! websites and it is doing a great job. We received a lot of feedbacks from happy customers that no longer have intrusion problems which makes us happy.

However, to those who got their Joomla! hacked, here's a small guide on what to do next:

How to repair a hacked Joomla! website:

• Get RSFirewall!

• Scan the website with the RSFirewall! security scanner for Joomla!. If the website was hacked, it will look for missing or modified Joomla! files, known Joomla! malware scripts, SQL injections and other vulnerabilities.

RSMail! revision 4 has been released. We have added a few important features to the new version including:

• The possibility to add multiple articles to the message
• You can now customize the Unsubscribe link
• You can ask people that subscribe to confirm their e-mail address
