Running a WordPress site requires a lot of work. Even if you know what you’re doing, you still have to do things in the right order, at the right time. You need to check your SEO, content, update plugins and themes. Furthermore, you should clear out spam comments on your WordPress blog, check error logs, run daily backups, monitor and improve loading times, and run security audits. Also, if you don’t check up on how your website is performing regularly or how it looks to visitors, your site can end up in trouble. If you forget regular maintenance, your site can become cluttered with errors, its performance can drop, and it can even get hacked. This will not only result in a poor user experience, but it can also cause a Google penalty and possibly even a ban from your WordPress hosting. In order to prevent all that from happening, you need to perform your WordPress website maintenance regularly. Or even better – hire someone to do it for you.
