WordPress Updates
WordPress CMS software is constantly being developed and updated. As enhancements are made and security exploits are identified and addressed it is vitally important to keep your website up to date with the latest stable version of the core WordPress software and related installed plugins. It is critical that your site is kept up to date!
There are usually many core WordPress updates released each year and the related work involved in a CMS website update would normally involve: a complete backup of your WordPress website (files and database); installing the core WordPress update; updating the various plugins installed on your site, and finally updating or tweaking your template/theme design if needed after the update. This work can take anything from 20 minutes for simple update on a very small basic site to a number of hours for a larger site, depending on the type of update , the number of plugins and how they are affected and the exact type, size and content of the website being updated.
