Managing Your Website: Best WordPress Hosting for Beginners!
Creating a new website is super exciting!
It’s like opening a digital front door to the world. Using our system at Digital Ninjas Cloud, makes this process even better because it’s designed for anyone to use, no matter their tech skills. Whether you’re setting up a blog, an online store, or a portfolio, we make it easy to get online and start connecting with people all over the world. But did you ever think of how to manage your website once the designer handed it over to you?
Managing Your Website is another story
Just launching your website isn’t the end of the road; it’s just the beginning. Keeping your website running smoothly is an ongoing job that requires regular check-ups and maintenance. Think of it like taking care of a car. Just as a car needs oil changes and tire checks, your website needs regular updates and backups to keep it running well. Here’s a simple guide to help you manage your WordPress site effectively.
Monthly Management Tips:
1. Backup Your Website:
- Always keep a backup copy of your website stored in a safe place, like Google Drive or Dropbox. This is like having insurance for your website. If something goes wrong, like your website crashing or getting hacked, you can use the backup to restore everything just the way it was. We do that for clients because of their low experience in this tech industry. This is what makes us different from all the so called experts out there.
2. Check for Security:
- It’s important to keep your website safe from hackers and viruses. Using a security service to regularly check your website can help catch problems before they cause damage. Even though we at Digital Ninjas Cloud take care of the heavy lifting when it comes to security, it’s a good practice for you to be involved and aware of the security status. Things such as keeping your password secure from unauthorized parties.
3. Keep Pictures and Videos Light:
- Websites with lots of pictures and videos can slow down unless the media files are kept small. Large files make your website load slowly, which can frustrate visitors. Tools like TinyPNG can compress your images without losing quality, ensuring your site remains fast and friendly.
- We have received a few complaints from some of our clients who filled their packages without compressing their media files. This slows down their system. We highly recommend that you compress your media files.
4. Update regularly:
- For those using WordPress, WordPress uses themes and plugins to add features to your site. These need to be updated regularly to add new features and security fixes. It’s like updating apps on your smartphone to keep everything running smoothly and securely. Also, it’s wise to remove any plugins or themes you’re not using to keep the site tidy and fast. We do this too for our clients.
5. Clean Up Comments:
- If you allow comments on your site, it’s important to keep this area clean and friendly. Regularly check and remove spam comments to keep your site professional and inviting. Responding to genuine comments can also build a community and engage your audience.
6. Watch Your Website’s Up and Down Time:
- Just like a store has opening hours, your website needs to be ‘open’ online as much as possible. If there’s planned maintenance that might make your website temporarily unavailable, we at Digital Ninjas Cloud will let you know ahead of time so you can inform your visitors.
