It’s much easier to feel motivated when the sun is shining. Especially during that glorious change of season from winter to spring when you get a fresh burst of energy. Now is the perfect time to invest your energy into finding a WordPress support plan to refresh and rejuvenate your website this spring.
If your site isn’t performing at its best, consider purchasing a WordPress support plan.
1. Optimise your site for search engines
A well-optimized website will organically gain more traffic without you having to spend a small fortune trying to pay for people to view your site. A WordPress support plan could help improve your visibility on search engines, leading to increased traffic and conversions.
For example, at WP Tech Support, we would review your site to ensure it has a strong site architecture, clear navigation, properly tagged images, and meta descriptions. This would give visitors a better experience and help search engines index your site quickly and easily.
An SEO-friendly site will set you ahead for the remainder of the year, meaning you could have a different bottom line by Christmas.
2. Fix those annoying WordPress issues
Unless you are a WordPress whizz or regularly pay a website developer to fix issues, you probably have something on your website that isn’t quite right. Perhaps you have something that you are struggling to align properly, or there’s an element that’s not functioning as it should. Although these issues may not directly impact your profit, if you’ve noticed them, your visitors will likely have, too.
When things don’t line up properly or work as they should, it doesn’t create the best impression on potential customers. Most WordPress support plans will include fixing any known issues at the outset when you sign up for a monthly plan. No more sighs of frustration every time you view your site?
3. Speed up your site
WordPress websites that aren’t properly maintained are notoriously slow. Sluggish page loading times frustrate visitors, who expect a page downloaded in less than 3 seconds. Yep, any more than that, and it’s unlikely they will stick around to view the page.
Unoptimized images, bad hosting, and poorly coded themes are reasons your website can become sluggish. When you invest in a WordPress support plan, you will get an expert review of your website to identify why it’s not performing as quickly as it should. It can then be rectified to ensure you provide a fast, efficient service.
4. Review your site security
Web security is critical to your online presence and should not be ignored. Implementing several security measures to shield your site against common weaknesses and attacks is important.
One of the best ways to keep your business safe is by layering your security. Adding firewalls is essential in stopping attackers before they can access your critical information. Next, consider obscuring the back-end login page to protect your site from brute-force attacks.
Knowing you have instructed someone to actively implement measures to stay safe from cybercrime is a huge weight off your shoulders. It will also demonstrate to your customers that they can trust your site to protect sensitive details.
5. Backup your website
Imagine losing your entire site due to data loss. It can quickly happen thanks to internal mistakes, hardware failure, plugin errors causing crashes, or becoming a victim of hacking. It’s certainly not a risk worth taking.
Backing up your website is critical to protect against accidental data loss. Without regular backups and a robust offsite backup strategy, you risk losing your entire website, resulting in hours of frantically updating and republishing your content. If you don’t want to be in this position, consider signing up for a WordPress support plan sooner rather than later.
6. Keep your site updated
Last, keeping your site updated with the latest core, theme, and plugin versions helps protect against hack attempts. The popularity of WordPress has made it vulnerable to hackers; however, most of the time, the only reason your WordPress website will get exploited is personal negligence, such as not keeping on top of website maintenance.
By investing in a WordPress support plan, you can keep your site on top of the necessary daily maintenance to keep it secure and running as it should.
