Why you need to maintain your website
Regular backups
Having backups of your website is essential.
Every website owner should have backups of his or her website in case something goes wrong. (including off-site backups)
For example: there may be a problem at the hosting company, your site may become compromised by malware or malicious code and need to be repaired, you may inadvertently delete pages or content, a theme or plugin update can sometimes breaks you site…
WordPress Features
Like any software, WordPress needs to be updated on a regular basis.
Because of the open source nature of WordPress, a lot of people are working constantly to improve it and fix any bugs or security issues as they become apparent.
This means that updated versions are released frequently with 1 or 2 major updates every year and frequent minor fixes issued in between to fix immediate issues.
Website Security
To improve website security: new security features prevent hackers from gaining control of your site and inserting malicious code. This is important to maintain the credibility of your business with your audience and preserve your search engine ranking position by preventing your site from being blacklisted.
To fix bugs: updates are also issued to fix functionality issues on WordPress to optimise the way in which your website operates.
