WordPress is a powerful tool to easily keep your website updated, and it is amazingly secure and stable, however as with any software there are occasional issues. Last year there were 7 updates to WordPress and innumerable updates to plugins, many of these updates are related to security issues and others add new functionality. Keeping on top of these updates can be daunting and sometimes updates can break your website’s template or cause conflicts between different plugins. Last year there was a problem with the NextGEN Gallery plugin that kept some of my client’s photo galleries out of commission for several weeks. So although WordPress updates can be performed by anyone, some of the issues that arise are best left to professionals and many people are not always aware when there is a new WordPress update so important security patches may wait months to be installed.
