Is your site suddenly spammy? Features stopped working the way they should? Once-speedy pages taking forever to load?

To keep your WordPress website secure and working well, you must maintain it properly.

The code should be updated regularly to increase security, fix bugs, and add features and functionality.
Regular backups are crucial to restoring your site if necessary—things go wrong, even with the best of sites and servers.
Security scanning makes sure that nothing hacky has happened.
Optimizing for speed keeps site users engaged.
In this session, Andi will teach you the basics of WordPress website maintenance. She’ll suggest automatic steps you can set up with your host as well as manual tasks you (or a professional) can complete to boost security and performance.
