WordPress Maintenance services
If you are struggling to maintain your WordPress website on your own, don’t worry – you’re not alone. Running a business at the same time as maintaining a WordPress website for your business should be easy, right?
Although think of all the free time you’re committing to a task that doesn’t come naturally to you, not to mention that one time your website broke completely while you were updating a single plugin. Luckily you had a backup and you were able to get a previous version of your website back online after just a few very frustrating hours.
And there was that time you updated the WordPress theme only to discover days later, from a customer who contacted you and just happened to mention it, that the formatting of several pages was out of line with where it should have been, making your polished and professional website look like an amateur’s. Not great for customer reputation that one, was it?
Any of this sounding familiar? Or are you reading this and thinking it’s a cautionary tale you should really take heed of?
Leave the maintenance of your website to a professional
If you’re not a competent mechanic you’ll have your car serviced by a qualified professional. It costs you money but at least you know you’re safe on the road. You want to protect yourself and those who are dear to you, so it’s worth it.
In just the same way, your business website needs to be looked after if it’s to be safe online for you and your customers. We all know how dangerous a place the information super highway is after all. There are so many hackers and unscrupulous individuals (some working for criminal gangs – or countries) who will take advantage of any tiny vulnerability, given the chance. That can put you as an individual, your business and your reputation at risk, not to mention any clients who may have visited your website and made contact with you via a Contact Form, for example.
