1. update the site regularly. Yes. Very important, yes, this is probably the sexiest tip in the history of WordPress. But this is also one of the most important things that can be done to ensure site security and functionality. Sucuri’s analysis in the first quarter of 2016 showed that 56% of the WordPress websites (surveyed by Sucuri) hacked were running old WordPress software. There is a reason for this relationship. WordPress is very secure, but sometimes it has weaknesses. These vulnerabilities are fixed as soon as they are discovered, but only when updated. The
For example, a recent rest API vulnerability affected hundreds of thousands of word press sites. However, if all of these sites are updated to WordPress 4.7.2 immediately upon publication, they can be retained. In addition to word press software, plug-ins and theme updates must also be kept up to date. According to Sucuri’s analysis, 25% of WordPress websites invaded by hackers only account for 3 old plug-ins. I repeat, the plug-in has actually fixed the security issue. The user did not update it. The
Therefore, please set the update tab as friends. Tell you everything you need to update. Just click the button. Male 2 If you run backups regularly (to ensure that they work properly), no bad things will happen to the site. But the data on the site is not luck. So… Please be lucky and back up regularly. Don’t be fooled by the myth of unnecessary backups. But this is more than just \
For your second question, I am a fan of the 3-2-1 strategy. A total of 3 backups are retained, and 1 stored on the cloud using 2 (such as a computer or an external hard disk) in a physical location is also retained for different periods of time. If there are the same problems as real-time sites, backup will not help. 3. although it is not as serious as the proposal before confirming the spam posts reported falsely, you will be surprised if you know how many high-quality posts are accidentally marked as spam. You will see some real posts, most of which are spam, but worth saving. I usually look for oneortwo every time I check! The

Thankfully, it’s easy to clean. Just run plug-ins such as WP swepe. No configuration required. Just install, tools → sort out and sort out various forms. You can also use sweep all at the bottom of the page. Deleting the draft is not recommended. In general, we recommend that you view each category separately to avoid deleting important information. 5. broken internal and external links checking broken links is not conducive to user experience and SEO. It becomes more difficult for people to use sites and robots to scroll through sites. Although it is difficult to find manually, you can use the correct tool (broken link checker) to scan all broken links on the WordPress site immediately. The
There are several advanced settings for plug-ins, but install plug-ins on most websites, and then go to tools → disconnected link. Move the mouse over each link to quickly edit or delete the link. Some people say that the broken link checker may slow down the WP admin dashboard, so it is recommended that you activate the plug-in only when you confirm the broken link. 6.404 page monitoring and redirection settings 404 page is seen by visitors when they visit a page that does not exist (for example, on a broken link). The
You can control links that are disconnected from your own site, but you cannot control links that are disconnected from other sites. Therefore, you can monitor 404 page traffic, find missing pages, and redirect to 301 appropriate pages as needed. Although you can use Google Analytics to monitor 404 pages, a simpler solution for beginners is to redirect the plug-in. In addition to monitoring the traffic of 404 pages, you can also quickly add appropriate redirects to send the traffic to the correct location. 7. if you are the same as the page load time confirmation website of most websites, you may read the post, including how to improve the WordPress speed, how to implement the prompt, how to improve the page load time, and then call it one day. Does it sound like you? I know at some point it’s a sin. The
But if the website slows down in the future, will you notice? Although optimization is a continuous process, not a one-time process, we tend to think that the site is \
Personally, I think this may have a substantial impact on my business. Last year, we made changes to the consultation form plug-in and confirmed that the number of consultations on the freelance service has decreased. Although not down to 0 It is about half of what you usually get. Of course, my first reaction was to retest my new forms plug-in. I sent myself a few test emails and everything was perfect.

You’re not interested in hiring Shanze, are you? Well, not much. Although I didn’t honk my horn, the drop-down is actually the result of a cache problem in my contact form plug-in. But I never had a problem because I logged in to my administrator account excluded from the cache and tested the form. Learn from my mistakes – test the form like a normal user experience. That is, use the secret tab! 9. please find someone to perform maintenance. Although you can do everything yourself, WordPress maintenance service can help you reduce more boring work. One of the services is skyrocket WP. Skyrocket WP is a managed word press host, adding many maintenance functions that are not provided by the host. Male skyrocketwp is set as follows: Weekly WordPress updates daily backup performance monitoring to prevent hacker attacks and malicious code removal runtime monitoring other useful services tone skyrocket WP also has a clean partnership. If you are already hosted as kinsta, you can use skyrocket WP at a lower price than the independent skyrocket WP program. All these features will cost extra, but the time required to maintain word press will also be reduced. Remember – time is money! By default, managed hosting and WordPress maintenance is a compact package. I don’t think anyone likes to tidy up WordPress maintenance. But this is a task that must be performed to ensure that the site is safe and well functioning. Some prompts, such as site updates and backup runs, must always be up to date. Other items, such as broken links and spam comments, may be safely downgraded to the \
