Additional WordPress maintenance considerations

Additional WordPress maintenance considerations

  • Database Optimisation: Over time, your WordPress database can accumulate unnecessary data like revisions, spam comments, and transients. Regularly optimising your database can improve website performance and efficiency. Utilise plugins specifically designed for database optimisation.
  • Broken Link Checker: Broken links can frustrate visitors and negatively impact SEO. Use a plugin to scan your website for broken links and redirect them to the correct pages or remove them altogether.
  • Spam Prevention: Spam comments can clutter your website and damage your reputation. Utilise a robust anti-spam plugin to filter out unwanted comments and protect your website.
  • Accessibility: Ensure your website is accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. Consider using accessibility plugins and following best practices for web accessibility (WCAG).
  • Mobile-Friendliness: In today's mobile-first world, a responsive website design that adapts seamlessly to different screen sizes is crucial. Regularly test your website on various devices to ensure optimal mobile user experience.
  • User Reviews & Testimonials: Positive user reviews and testimonials build trust with potential customers. Encourage satisfied customers to leave reviews on your website and Google My Business listing.
  • Social Media Integration: Integrate social media sharing buttons on your website to encourage visitors to share your content and expand your reach.
  • Legal Compliance: Ensure your website complies with relevant legal regulations such as GDPR regarding data privacy and user consent.
  • Manage User Accounts: Regularly review user accounts and permissions within your WordPress dashboard. Remove inactive accounts and adjust permissions as needed.

  • What services do you provide?

    Our service includes updates for WordPress core, themes, and plugins. We team up with you to set up scheduled backups that match your website's requirements and preferences.

    We cover security auditing, lockdown, scanning, and cleanup. Additionally, you can sign up for our Website Firewall with Sucuri CloudProxy to boost performance and prevent attacks.

    If you're interested in improving your site's performance, we offer a bolt-on that includes auditing and performance measuring, such as Google PageSpeed Insights and Web Vitals scores. This will involve image optimisation, compression, database optimisation, caching, CDN implementation, request minimisation, minifying, and other similar tasks.

  • Can you update the content on my WordPress website?

    Our WordPress maintenance service is designed to help you keep your website safe and secure. If you need content updates for your website, we can certainly help but our content services are not included in this offer.

  • Are updates and fixed unlimited?

    BBI Brandboost's Core subscription includes routine updates, backups, and an hour of troubleshooting (or rollback to the latest backup) if any error or break is caused by an update made by our team on your website.

    We don't provide unlimited free fixes, but offer high-quality on-demand developer support whenever you need it.

  • I have a slow WordPress website, can you help?

    Yes. Our Core + Performance service is especially suited to slow WordPress websites. 

    WordPress websites are built differently so results may vary between builds due to the complexity, code and build quality of a site. If your site is running on a slow server this can also affect how fast it loads. For best results, we recommend hosting with us on our premium, highly optimised for WordPress hosting platform.

  • My website has been hacked, can you help?

    Yes. Our Core + Security maintenance package is perfect. We offer unlimited malware removal for hacked sites as well as security patching and a firewall to ensure nothing bad happens to your WordPress website. By the way, this service is also available to websites built on other platforms as a standalone service, contact us for further information.

  • Am I tied into a contract?

    All services are for a minimum 12-month period.

  • Can I upgrade / Downgrade my package

    If you are on Core + Performance you can upgrade your package. Contact us for details

    If you are on Core + Security, unfortunately we cannot downgrade your package. This is due to the upfront costs of setting up the package. Once it is set up, its is set up for the year.
