\"WordpressIf you read blogs and visit websites, you have encountered WordPress. First launched in May 2003, WordPress is a content management system (CMS) that started out as a user-friendly blogging and website platform. Since its inception, the popularity of WordPress has exploded and it has grown into the world\u2019s largest and most reliable CMS.<\/p>\n

With its ease of use and the ability to use or modify the WordPress software for free, it has become a terrific tool for many businesses and individuals looking to manage important aspects of their website. But, as Spiderman\u2019s Uncle Ben warned, with great power comes great responsibility. That means protecting your investment with regular maintenance.<\/p>\n

How Big Is WordPress Really?<\/h2>\n

Today, WordPress runs an estimated 35 percent of the entire internet, according to BuiltWith<\/a>, and roughly 50 percent of the top 1 million sites in the world operate on WordPress. People not only blog on WordPress, but the software powers more than 34 percent of all websites on the internet. More than 20 percent of small business owners use WordPress because it is so simple to use.<\/p>\n

An Easy-to-Use CMS<\/h2>\n

WordPress is easy to use because it comes with open source plugins that allow users to adapt their websites for a variety of uses. WordPress allows you to easily incorporate interactive maps, e-commerce, blogs, social media buttons, video, and more. It\u2019s also pretty self-explanatory and easy to use even for the novice.<\/p>\n

Why You Need Maintenance<\/h2>\n

With the digital world in which we all live, maintenance is incredibly important when it comes to WordPress. Due to the open-source nature of the platform, plugins and themes are susceptible to vulnerabilities and hackers are at the ready to take advantage of them. These technical vulnerabilities can be guarded against with proper maintenance which includes keeping your core WordPress files current as well as your themes and plugins updated.<\/p>\n

While WordPress updates are easy to perform, they can be time consuming and things can sometimes go wrong. When things do go awry, it\u2019s best to have a backup in place so you can quickly recover your site, themes, and plugins. That\u2019s where WordPress maintenance<\/a> can help even more.<\/p>\n

What Maintenance Should Cover<\/h2>\n

If you love your WordPress platform but want to relieve yourself of the burden of maintaining it, you can hire a third-party service provider such as jVista WordPress Maintenance. These providers should actively monitor your site for updates to your themes, your WordPress core, and all of your plugins. Your WordPress maintenance provider should also check for vulnerabilities and outdated plugins that make your site vulnerable to hackers. When they find updates, your provider should perform the upgrades for you and check your site to ensure it is fully functional so it is always up and running smoothly.<\/p>\n
