Module 1.1: Why is Website Management Important

According to Toska (2020), regularly updating and maintaining your site is essential to ensuring that your site is running at total capacity. Cars were mentioned as an example, saying that websites require maintenance and management to operate correctly. Properly maintaining your site helps to ensure site security, increase the number of new visitors, boost returning traffic, and more.

  • Security
    • One of the importance of managing your website is due to security reasons. Primarily if the organization uses a content management system like WordPress, regular security checks and patches must be done to prevent hackers from taking over and/or messing up your website. 
  • Optimized Visitor Experience
    • Another vital benefit of managing your website is optimizing the experience of your visitors. Given that you update your website regularly, this means that the contents of your website are up to date and continuously updated.
