Website Maintenance & Security Updates A slow-loading, poorly working website will negatively affect the success of any Digital Marketing Campaign. If a search engine determines that a website has broken pages, spam or viruses, it would no longer list the website in search results. Search engines make sure that the links served at the top of search results are quality websites that visitors would find helpful and relevant. To keep your Digital Marketing Campaign working optimally, regular website maintenance and security updates must be done. This includes checking the website’s back-end for any bugs and errors, monitoring search console, conducting link cleanup, security version updates and patches. The client’s website developer must ensure these tasks are completed regularly. If your website is built on one of our supported Content Management Systems we may be able to make changes to your website at our Professional Hourly Rate.
