Why do websites need maintenance?
Technology changes rapidly. What works now will not work forever.
Software Updates
Just like your mobile device and computer, your website needs software and security updates regularly. These updates not only improve performance, but they help guard against the hackers and malicious programs that attempt to compromise it on a daily basis.
Malicious Traffic
Up to 80% of website traffic can be bots and crawlers, many of which are malicious. They scan for vulnerabilities, and it’s a matter of time before they find one on an unmaintained site and inject malware that can be difficult to find and clean.
Resource Usage & Downtime
You need to know that your website team is going to respond immediately to a crash or malware incident. We also monitor for resource usage, making sure that everything is running as light as fast as possible.
