The Importance of Regular WordPress Website Maintenance
Regular WordPress maintenance services are vital for keeping your website secure, efficient, and user-friendly. We perform a range of tasks to ensure your site remains in top shape.
As WordPress, PHP and related technologies evolve- so do threats and bad actors.
This report on WordPress security breaches provides alarming insights into just how often "these things do happen".
Plugins and Themes Maintenance
We regularly update plugins and themes to enhance functionality and security. Outdated plugins can pose vulnerabilities, making updates crucial.
The same applies to Themes.
It's recommended to delete Themes which are not being used and regularly update and maintain the Theme on which your website runs.
Therefore, an essential part of WordPress housekeeping is rigorous Theme and Plugin management and culling.
Simply disabling Plugins and Themes is not enough, because the files are still on the Server.

Core Web Vitals
Check yours!
We Test and Harden Security
We Check Your Server, its Software, WordPress and Addons
Our WordPress maintenance services include conducting security audits to identify and rectify potential vulnerabilities.
Weaknesses and vulnerabilities can develop within the Server environment, (hardware as well as software) and also within the WordPress installation itself.
This is an important step- even moreso if you collect customer data, make online sales, or populate a database with user-submitted sensitive data collected through forms.
We fortify your site against threats and ensure sensitive data is protected.

WordPress Website Performance Optimisation
Optimizing website speed and performance is crucial for user experience and SEO. Developers employ techniques such as caching, image optimization, and code cleanup.
Well optimised images can shed around 90% of their original file size. In fact, images are one of the biggest bandwidth culprits, slowing down load times and affecting Core Web Vitals.
With this in mind, we ensure that your Core Web Vitals aren't adversely impacted. In particular "Largest Contentful Paint" (LCP) which is a measure of loading speed of the main content of the page.
That's because once the main content has loaded, a visitor is in a position to be able ot make a usefulness assessment of the current page, and choose whether to stay or leave.
These WordPress maintenance services are an important part of website performance tuning.
Supporting Your Content Team
Content Management as Part of Website Maintenance
MySQL Databases in the Mix of WordPress Maintenance Services
MySQL Databases are a big part of WordPress websites. The database holds almost all of the content, of a typical WordPress website. This includes Pages, Posts, Widgets, Users and more.
When someone requests a page or a post on your website, the information and text assets are pulled from the DataBase and assembled on the fly, to create "the page" the visitor sees.
Regular database optimization and cleanup help maintain site efficiency, as well as security.
We remove unnecessary data and optimize queries for improved speed.
Also we remove all users who should not have Admin privileges- or reduce their roles and access.
That being said, a DataBase cleanup is an important part of the security of a WordPress website, as well as overall performance. As such, this is one of our key WordPress maintenance services.
General User Experience Enhancements: Responsive Design and Links Checks
As mobile usage grows, we verify that your site's design remains responsive and functional on various devices and screen sizes. That's because responsive design takes on more importance as time moves on.
Broken links and other issues can harm user experience and SEO. Common causes of broken links are renamed internal URLs, deleting a page or post without assigning a htaccess redirect as well as external resources your website links to, simply getting deleted or changed- again without htaccess redirects being put in place.
We routinely scan and fix these problems to ensure seamless navigation.
Continual improvement of user experience is a priority. Developers make adjustments based on user feedback and evolving design trends.
UpTime Monitoring and Server Analytics
As part of our comprehensive WordPress Maintenance Services we set up tools to track visitor behaviour website uptime, and performance.
These analytics insights guide informed decisions for site improvements.
When you book regular WordPress maintenance services from us, your website will stay secure, perform well, and provide an excellent user experience.
These ongoing efforts contribute to the long-term success of your online presence.
We Include Regular Backups and Have Disaster Recovery Plans
Part of our WordPress Maintenance Services is ensuring your SSL is current and that it renews when it should. Also, we include regular backups, and these instances of your website and database(s) are stored offsite- not on your web server.
In doing so, we're quarantining a clean secure copy of your website. Not just the current one- but two extra iterations.
Most data breaches are caused by human error.
Effective backups won't sit alongside your staff and watch what they do.
Having those backups tested and stored offsite, simplifies your recovery should the unthinkable occur.
