Why is maintaining a WordPress website so important?
Whether it's a simple landing page, a website at the heart of your business or an online store with thousands of products, the method is the same.
Headache reduction measures (HPT) 🤓
How sexy can you make technical operation and maintenance of a website? Not very, but we have over 100 active sites in operation, extensive experience and a good delivery on that:
Lightning fast server in Norway via Servebolt.no
Backup, security update, uptime monitor, etc.
In short, we take care of the technical side so the site works.
Of course, you have customer service if you need it.
Plus a good number of other points, but that for 90% of our customers is Greek. Just know that we have it under control. 👍
Conversion and sales
What are some of the most frustrating things about a website? That it's slow, doesn't work properly and if it's also difficult to find what you're looking for, you suddenly have a nightmare.
With an operations package, you ensure that your sites are maintained, hosted on a fast server and you have someone ready to fix any malfunctions so you don't lose enquiries or sales due to lack of maintenance.
Search engines like Google appreciate a well-maintained website
When pages are fast, secure and avoid as much downtime as possible, this is positive for search engine rankings.
For example, if Google detects that the page is down, it will be penalized because they do not want to send traffic to a page that is not working.
User experience
When websites are maintained, you ensure that there are no malfunctions, downtime and that things simply work as they should.
For example, imagine you're a potential customer visiting a website to make a purchase or contact someone. Then the site doesn't work properly and you're left frustrated and move on to the next competitor. We can't let that happen to your potential customers.
Security
Many people already have a WordPress website that is up and running, but often there are problems with updates or that you have not updated WordPress, themes or plugins and as a result have been hacked.
Hit a nut you can't figure out? Instead of scouring Google, YouTube and various Facebook groups for hours, you can ask us and we will most likely have the answer. We also assist with further development of the website when necessary.
Suddenly there are errors and technical problems that need to be solved. Usually at the worst possible time. You can leave the paracet and ibux behind, we'll take care of it and you can focus on your work instead.
