Keep your WordPress Website Secure, Bug-free and Feature Rich Anytime


WordPress regularly releases new versions and directs the users to update their site to the new version. Though we may not find any visible risk on the older version of the site, it is necessary to have upgradation regularly as and when there is new release or bug fixes. WordPress upgradation must not be overlooked as the older version is prone to malicious attacks anytime. The main reasons to upgrade the site are as follows:

Security: The source code of WordPress is publicly available as it is an open source. And, it is easily vulnerable to hackers’ attack. The team releases new versions in order to combat these issues and take care of the security loops (if found any). This is one of the main reasons to upgrade the site often. 
New functionalities: The team constantly releases new functionality and features which could be related to user interface, administrative phases, SEO, and, etc. the new features could be utilized only upon availing upgradation.

Bug fixes: As it is open source software, the developer and the tester community may belong to different development centers. It is a kind of collaborative time most of the time done remotely through SVN softwares. There could be more bugs as compared to proprietary software and they are tested constantly and new patch is released in the next version. Hence it is necessary to avail WordPress Upgradation services

WordPress update is not recommended to be carried out by a non-technical team to avoid the risk of loss of data owing to shortcomings in the procedure. The first and foremost thing to be considered is it should be done when the traffic is low. The sequential events involved are briefed below. 
  • Backup of the site ensures safety of the data. It could be done either through PHP My admin or new dashboard tool which is found in the sidebar menu below the updates. Even the themes and plugins must have back up.  
  • Deactivate the cache plugin, so that there is no interference in the update process. 
  • The WordPress update is generally accompanied by themes and plugins update. So, it is necessary to update them prior to site update. 
  • It is followed by the update process. It is just a click away. There could be a momentary blank section in the dashboard. 
  • Reactivate the cache plugin.
  • Check the site once thoroughly by visiting the pages and posts. 
It is better to catch the shortcomings then and there itself instead of keeping it and carrying forward. Though the procedure happens to be simple and any non-tech person may carry out the procedure, it is recommended to contact the WordPress developer(s) India or any region where you are located to get an error-free working website.
