Why do I need website maintenance?
We understand many business owners don’t understand the importance of a maintenance plan, but there’s a lot that can go wrong if a website is not properly maintained. Things to consider:
1. WordPress is Constantly Evolving
An outdated website is the number one cause of website hacks. In order to remain current, your themes and plugins MUST be updated regularly.
2. Optimization
There are many factors to consider with website optimization (the size of your photos, alt & title tags, etc.) When not done properly, this can lead to slow loading times, and poor Google rankings over time.

Protect Your Website
Remember, many new customers will visit your website before reaching out via phone, email or in person.
