A WordPress site nobody has looked at for two years is.<\/strong> Most of the hacked websites I clean up had outdated plugins. Most slow websites have ten plugins nobody uses anymore. And most SEO problems after a &#8220;routine update&#8221; could be caught in five minutes if someone looked at Search Console. Typical situations people come to me with:<\/p>\n<div class=\"wa-3 wa-swipe\">\n<div class=\"wa-card\">\n<h3>&#8220;The website broke after an update.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>A plugin updated itself, conflicted with the theme, white screen. There&#8217;s no backup, or it&#8217;s on the same server that just went down.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card\">\n<h3>&#8220;There are weird pages of ours in Google.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>An old plugin with a vulnerability that someone used to insert hundreds of spam pages. Google indexed them and the website is sliding in search.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card\">\n<h3>&#8220;The website keeps getting slower.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>A database full of revisions and abandoned carts, unused plugins, uncompressed images. A little worse every month, nobody notices.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card\">\n<h3>&#8220;Whoever built our website stopped responding.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>The freelancer moved on, the agency closed. Nobody knows where the hosting is, who has access and what can safely be updated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card\">\n<h3>&#8220;Orders from Google stopped coming.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>The SEO plugin changed its settings after an update, the sitemap disappeared or noindex got switched on. Without checking Search Console it takes months to find out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card\">\n<h3>&#8220;We don&#8217;t have time for this.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>The most common reason. A website is a sales tool, not a hobby. Maintenance needs to happen regularly, otherwise it only happens after a crash, when it&#8217;s more expensive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What&#8217;s included in monthly website maintenance<\/h2>\n<div class=\"wa-4 wa-swipe\">\n<div class=\"wa-card c\"><span class=\"wa-n\">1<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Off-site backups<\/h3>\n<p>Regular automatic backups of files and database stored outside your hosting, with restore options.

Critical security fixes right away, others after a compatibility check. For bigger changes: backup first, then update, then check.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card c\"><span class=\"wa-n\">3<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Security<\/h3>\n<p>Firewall, malware scanning, login limits, review of users with administrator rights and removal of unused plugins.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card c\"><span class=\"wa-n\">4<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Uptime<\/h3>\n<p>Monitoring that the website is up. If it goes down, I know before your customers do and handle it with the hosting provider.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card c\"><span class=\"wa-n\">5<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Speed<\/h3>\n<p>Database cleanup, caching, Core Web Vitals checks and the third-party scripts that slow the website down the most.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wa-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wooacademy.sk\/ako-zrychlit-wordpress-woocommerce\/\">How to speed up WordPress (in Slovak) \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wa-card c\"><span class=\"wa-n\">6<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>SEO health<\/h3>\n<p>A monthly Search Console check: indexing, errors, sitemap, noindex, click drops.

We&#8217;ve been building WordPress and WooCommerce websites and stores since 2018 and teach WordPress in our courses. Why I consider WordPress the best system for SEO is in the short video above and in the article about <a href=\"https:\/\/wooacademy.sk\/wordpress-seo-plugin-rank-math-yoast-killer\/\">Rank Math<\/a>. What slows websites down the most is in the article on <a href=\"https:\/\/wooacademy.sk\/skripty-tretich-stran-rychlost-webu\/\">third-party scripts<\/a> (both in Slovak).<\/p>\n<div class=\"wa-btns\"><a class=\"wa-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/wooacademy.sk\/kontakt\/\">Hand over your website<\/a><a class=\"wa-btn o\" href=\"mailto:info@wooacademy.sk\">info@wooacademy.sk<\/a><\/div>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions about WordPress maintenance<\/h2>\n<details>\n<summary>How much does WordPress website maintenance cost?<\/summary>\n<p>Website \u20ac49, company website \u20ac99 and WooCommerce store \u20ac199 per month. Backups, updates, security, monitoring, an SEO check and, in the higher packages, small edits are included. No lock-in; prices are final and we are not VAT registered.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Why isn&#8217;t switching on automatic updates enough?<\/summary>\n<p>Automatic updates without backups and checks are the most common reason a website breaks or the cart stops working. With maintenance, updates happen with a backup, and afterwards we check that the website, forms and orders still work.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What happens if the website goes down?<\/summary>\n<p>Monitoring alerts me, I find the cause, deal with it together with the hosting provider or restore the website from a backup. Fixing downtime caused by an update I made is always included.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Do I have to change hosting?<\/summary>\n<p>No. I work on your existing hosting; I just need access. If the hosting is causing slowness or downtime, I&#8217;ll tell you and recommend where to move, but the decision is yours.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Do you maintain websites you didn&#8217;t build?<\/summary>\n<p>Yes, most of the websites I maintain were built by other vendors. In the first month I do an entry check, and if anything on the website is risky, we discuss it up front.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How are you different from regular WordPress maintenance?<\/summary>\n<p>The monthly SEO check in Search Console. Regular maintenance checks that the website is up. I also check that Google can see it, index it and send people to it. An update that doesn&#8217;t crash the website but switches off indexing is worse for a business than downtime.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Is maintenance suitable for a Shoptet store?<\/summary>\n<p>No, Shoptet handles its own updates and backups. For Shoptet, an SEO service or hourly on-page work makes more sense. Maintenance is for WordPress and WooCommerce.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How long does the takeover take?<\/summary>\n<p>Usually within one week of receiving access. The first backup is done on the day of the takeover.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Do you maintain websites outside Slovakia?<\/summary>\n<p>Yes, maintenance is done remotely, so it doesn&#8217;t matter where your company or hosting is. I work in English, Slovak and Czech.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<p><em>WordPress maintenance is provided by <a href=\"https:\/\/wooacademy.sk\/o-nas\/seo-specialista-milan-frano\/\">Milan Fra\u0148o<\/a> and the WooAcademy team, Bratislava.
