WordPress and the systems we use are constantly changing. Ease of use and greater functionality is just the beginning. Security of your website is at the forefront and these updates are issued to protect against any security vulnerabilities.
WordPress updates their system frequently. Some are major updates that fix a security issue or others offer better functionality and ease of use for the admin side. While other updates might not be a total overhaul, they may make enhancements to a design element or admin interface. For the security of your site and information, these need to be done at once.

Content Updates
Times have changed in regard to websites and your site is no longer like a static brochure. It is important to periodically add new content, photos and functionality. This keeps your site fresh, improves search engine ranking and keeps customers coming back.
Updating your site makes it more interesting. Highlighting new products or adding relevant information adds to the depth to your site. People come to your site looking for information. Make sure you have what they are looking for and keep them engaged. A good website maintenance strategy will ensure customers feel satisfied with the information they’ve gathered from your site and understand the next step to contact you or purchase your product.
Keep your site updated to make a good first impression. Your company will lose credibility if there is an obvious sign your site hasn’t been updated in quite some time. Perhaps your copyright date is a few years old, you have links that are broken and go to an error page or your last blog post was from several years ago. Your potential customers will lose interest quickly and have doubt that the rest of the website information is even accurate.
Items to Udate
Some business owners have a hard time or not enough time to think about what items to add to their site. Making the time is important to your website to engage customers and give them the accurate information they need. Plus Google wants to see activity…It doesn’t have to be huge, but there’s always something to update.
Here are some examples of content changes:
- Home page highlight
- Call to action
- Specials
- Updated PDF’s
- New blog post
- Company news
- New staff
- FAQ’s
- Add new or delete products
- Testimonials
- Pictures for gallery
- New events
- Launches
- Acquisitions
- Awards
- Renovations
- New locations
- Update services
- Free download
WordPress - Theme - Plugins
All these systems work together. Occasionally updating WordPress can break your theme or updating the theme can break the plugins. It is not all that common, but when it happens, you need someone to get your site back up and running. That’s where we come in. Most problems can be fixed relatively soon and would be taken care of in a maintenance plan. If it is an unknown problem, we would revert to the most recent backup and present you with options.
If we are the ones that performed the updates, we’ll know at what point something has failed.
