Site Management
A managed approach to protecting your Investment
We build most of our websites with WordPress which is one of the best and most widely used platforms available. WordPress gives us as developers design flexibility and we can deliver mobile friendly and SEO friendly websites with limitless functionality.
WordPress does however require maintenance. In addition to multiple updates to the WordPress core software every year, plugins that are used in your website must be updated. Websites not updated are open to malware & hacks and will cease to work unless maintained.
Check out this article by Jason Cross for a little more detail on why it’s important to update your WordPress website. https://bark.productions/wordpress-security/
