Managing your WordPress website without an in-house development team, can be time consuming and without the right knowledge, things can go awry. The ongoing maintenance for updates, performance and security issues can fill up your working hours.

However, maintenance is vital. No one wants their website to go down while thousands of daily visitors try to access it during a sale or event.

WordPress Updates & Plugin Updates

Every year WordPress release new versions of their core product, and numerous updates. Premium plugins like Gravity Forms and Yoast regularly do the same. These updates can be for improvements to functionality, performance or security. As such, it is important that they are kept up-to-date, to ensure your site continues to work correctly, and avoid security vulnerabilities.

Equally important, is to ensure you aren’t using any plugins with known vulnerabilities, or that aren’t patched and updated by their creators.

A large percentage of website hacks are due to out-of-date CMS versions, or plugins that aren’t kept updated. Our team will make sure that updates are done regularly, and tested on a staging server first, to make sure they don’t break any functionality on your site.

Speed & Performance Optimisation

Speed is everything these days. It is a key ranking factor for Google, and users want a fast site. Slow load times mean they’ll go elsewhere. You could have the greatest website in the world, but if it’s slow, all that hard work is squandered if users don’t stick around to view it.

There are a multitude of factors which can slow your site down and create a poor user experience. Hosting location, lack of caching, bloated code and lack of image compression are just a handful of potential site speed choking issues. It can feel like a full time job staying on top of all of this.

We have a team dedicated to WordPress, who love the challenge of enhancing website speed & performance. Our maintenance plans include regular optimisation tasks to keep our customers’ websites running fast and smoothly, and quality managed WordPress hosting.

Security & Hack Protection

There are many myths and misconceptions about the security of WordPress websites. Much of this is down to two reasons.

The first being the very old fashioned idea that WordPress is only a blogging platform, when it is in fact fully realised and scalable CMS.

The second reason is that as the market leading CMS, with over 64% market share, we hear more about security breaches on WordPress sites, because there are so many more WordPress sites than anything else. They account for 39.9% of all websites on the internet.

We approach security very methodically, as it is a bit of an obsession for us. As well as managing and testing updates to WordPress and plugins, we use Sucuri’s firewall and website security platform, to monitor and protect the sites we look after.

WordPress Maintenance FAQ’s

What is WordPress Maintenance?

It’s not enough to build an amazing website, if you then leave it to fall apart. Just as you wouldn’t buy a vintage car and not look after it. We maintain and service our cars, and we need to do the same for our websites to keep them running smoothly.

WordPress maintenance includes all of the regular tasks which need to be carried out, like updates. Along with optimisation to fine tune performance, and security, to make sure your website stays safe from attacks.

Why is WordPress Maintenance important?

If you do not keep on top of regular maintenance it leaves the website in a concerned state as it ages. For example when WordPress jumps from version 4 to version 5 there are normally a lot of smaller updates between them in which trying to skip in one go can generally lead to your website breaking or not loading correctly or issues with certain plugins.

What is PHP and why do I have to update my website for PHP Compatibility?

Another thing to keep on top of is ensuring your website is hosted using the most up to date and secure software. PHP (Pre Hypertext Processing) is a language widely used on the web by many big brands, but more importantly is the underlying code that WordPress operates on.

Very similar to updating your computer operating system many hosts will upgrade their version of PHP to the most stable and secure version.

This does not mean that your website will work out the box when it is upgraded.

As part of routine maintenance we can run an audit on your site and provide a separate proposal to help carry out additional development to ensure the compatibility is met for the website theme and its plugins.

Why use an agency for WordPress Maintenance?

Maintaining multiple websites can be very time consuming for an individual to control as well as other possible development tasks.

At Impact, we assign website maintenance across multiple staff members who have access to many premium 3rd party solutions and platforms to control the management of your website.
