Do You Need Website Maintenance?

You’ve spent time and money to develop a website that showcases your company in the best light – time to leave it alone until something big changes, right? Not so fast! Your website is an investment, and it should be treated with great care with consistent monitoring, updating, and optimizing so that it continues to perform at its optimal level.

Have you ever visited a website that runs slowly, has inoperable links, or displays images that refuse to load? These problems can drive away visitors, but they are avoided with competent website maintenance — a strategy for the ongoing maintenance and support of your website.

Optimal User Experience (UX)
Routine website maintenance helps businesses pinpoint user issues on the site, which may prevent conversions like sales, email sign-ups, or contact form submissions. A seamless UX has the potential to raise web conversions by 400%. Ensuring all moving parts on your website are operational is important.

Security
The security of any website is important to protect valuable information about a business and its customers or clients.  A security breach can be caused by misconfigurations or plugins and themes that have not been updated, allowing hackers to access the content management system. This can cause a loss of trust in your brand.

Cost Savings
A modest investment in a website maintenance package can save thousands of dollars down the line, from the cost of updating the website itself to the loss of revenue  a poor user experience can affect. Constant monitoring, early detection, and rapid resolution of website issues ensures that business can operate smoothly online.
