Web Maintenance

Your site is not secure if it is not updating new patches provided by WordPress. WordPress usually offers 4 to 5 crucial updates every year that include security patches. They help site admins improve site security, reduce the risk of hacking, and ensure that cybercriminals don’t attack the site. Most websites that are not updated to the latest WordPress security patches are prone to hacking attempts.

Your plugins and themes require regular updates because of two reasons. Updated plugins offer better features that either had bugs or that were not available to the users. Similarly, theme updates ensure that your themes perform better and faster for the users. Updating your themes and plugins is also important because they can have security loopholes that are automatically patched due to updates.

WordPress maintenance is also important to completely back up your WordPress website. This ensures that the data available on the website is not only secure but in case your website is hacked, we can restore that data with the click of a single button. We can even schedule daily backups for your website or use plugins like WP Vivid that can back up your website easily.

How do we check that your WordPress website is in good health? Here are a few things that we will check for.

• Check if the site has regular backups available
• Make sure that the WordPress website doesn’t have any broken links
• That the website doesn’t have bandwidth or storage limit
• That the website doesn’t have any page speed issues
• That the database of the WordPress website works properly

An optimal uptime and network reliability strengthens the customer's trust and loyalty. In contrast, having a website that is unreachable deteriorates your brand's image rapidly. Even if your website is not servicing a technical industry, outages and downtime can compromise and damage your business.

Maintaining a WordPress website on a regular basis ensures that your overall site costs are reduced. Take the example of a car. If you drive a car and don’t maintain it, what will happen in a few months? Your car will stop working. Why? Because it requires maintenance but you are not providing that maintenance. In the end, you will end up paying more for the car’s maintenance instead of what you will pay right now. This is how you are saving in terms of website design costs with WordPress maintenance.

Your brand is a representation of you. And your brand is represented by your website. Now if your website is designed badly and offers a poor user experience, what will people think about you? This will impact your brand reputation directly. Badly maintained websites have numerous mistakes, broken links, dead pages, and outdated content that projects an unprofessional image and can leave a terrible taste in the mouths of your consumers.

WordPress maintenance is also a great way to improve your business. You may ask how?

Well, if you don’t maintain your website, it will start to lose the number of visitors it gets on a regular basis.

Think of your competition. It is always trying to beat you and if you are not taking your competition seriously, then you are in oblivion.

WordPress maintenance is not just a part of your website it is a crucial factor that can directly impact your business’s bottom line.
