Every website depends on shared code, scripting languages like php, javascript, sql, etc. Code becomes antiquated because these languages are continually changing. You run the risk of running into problems if you own a website but don't regularly update it with new text, images, or other content, or if you never check the back end.
There are significant revisions to this code on occasion. A significant change to PHP occurred in 2021, which caused many older websites to become inoperable or have sections that were broken.
Often, it involves a small update. These less significant upgrades address security flaws. Therefore, while being little, they should be taken seriously.
- Monitoring of your website to prevent hacking from occurring
- Maintain your website hosting
- Updating of information on website
- Updating themes and plugins
- Troubleshooting issues
- Security updates, etc.
