WordPress Website Maintenance Plans: Health Insurance for Your Website
Why WordPress website maintenance? Today’s WordPress sites are no longer the simple content management system they were touted as just a few years ago.
Most WordPress websites—especially those with sophisticated themes—are more like living creatures than static pieces of technology. They need frequent care and feeding.

Neglected or Poorly Maintained Websites Can Develop Problems
Improperly maintained or neglected websites often develop issues over time. These have nothing to do with the original design process.
What Makes WordPress Websites Different, and Why They Need Maintenance
Here’s why… The typical WordPress site today involves dozens or hundreds of interconnected pieces of technology. And ALL of them constantly changing!
WordPress core software has been updated more than 15 times per year over the last several years.
Plugins, those special-purpose add-ons, change frequently (once or twice a month) to keep up with WordPress updates and new product developments.
Leading themes (the wrap-around skin to the core platform) usually update on much the same schedule for the same reasons.
Google keeps changing, impacting what’s on your site, how it works and displays.
Here’s the key point. Sometimes you can get away with clicking the little red “update” buttons. But, the changes in one piece of technology can cause conflict with another one on your site–causing site display or performance issues.
Then there’s malware and hacking (read our blog post about this). WordPress sites have a login, which makes them a target for hackers and various types of site attacks.
How You Benefit from a WordPress Website Maintenance Plan
If you are like most business owners, you probably don’t have the background, time and/or interest to understand and manage all the issues related to site maintenance. However, unless you specifically subscribe to ongoing site maintenance, most web designers typically don’t continue tending to your website after it has been published.
