EXAMPLE MAINTENANCE STRATEGY
• Ensure you have a host that keeps server, PHP, and MySQL updated
with you occasionally checking to make sure you are updated.
• Use a staging site to perform updates on first to make sure your site
doesn't break
• Log into your site twice a week to perform updates
• Once a month, check all of your plugins to make sure they appear to
be still supported
• Use a backup plugin that can restore from backups and set it to
backup database daily and files weekly to a remote location
17frankcorso.me | @fpcorsoApril 12, 2018
EXAMPLE MAINTENANCE STRATEGY
• Use a security plugin that emails discovered file changes
• Use a malware scanning tool to scan your site regularly
• Ensure you have the skills to restore a backup or know someone
you can call
• Use a tool that checks your site every 5 to 15 minutes to ensure it is
up and notifies you if it is not
• Log into your site weekly to address all comments and spam

  • 5. HOSTING ENVIRONMENT 5frankcorso.me | @fpcorsoApril 12, 2018
  • 6. QUESTIONS TO ASK • Who is going to keep the server updated? • Who is going to keep PHP and MySQL updated? • If you are using a hosting provider, who is going to make sure that the hosting provider is keeping these updated? - Millions of WordPress sites are using outdated versions of PHP which are no longer receiving security updates because their hosting provider hasn't updated their PHP yet • Will you have a staging site? 6frankcorso.me | @fpcorsoApril 12, 2018
  • 8. QUESTIONS TO ASK • How often will you check for WordPress, themes, and plugin updates? • How often will you perform the updates? • Who will perform the updates? • Who is going to check if the plugin is no longer supported? 8frankcorso.me | @fpcorsoApril 12, 2018
  • 10. QUESTIONS TO ASK • How often is your site going to be backed up? • Who or what will be performing the backup? • Where will the backups be stored? • If the site needs to be restored, who knows how to do that? 10frankcorso.me | @fpcorsoApril 12, 2018
  • 12. QUESTIONS TO ASK • What plugins or services will you use to secure your site? • Who will keep track of file changes on your site? - How often? • Will you use any site scanning tool?

QUESTIONS TO ASK • How often will you check to make sure the shopping cart is working? • How often will you check that renewals are being processed? • How often will you check that emails concerning renewals, expired cards, etc. are being sent out correctly? • Who is going to check all of this? 16frankcorso.me | @fpcorsoApril 12, 2018
  • 17. EXAMPLE MAINTENANCE STRATEGY • Ensure you have a host that keeps server, PHP, and MySQL updated with you occasionally checking to make sure you are updated. • Use a staging site to perform updates on first to make sure your site doesn't break • Log into your site twice a week to perform updates • Once a month, check all of your plugins to make sure they appear to be still supported • Use a backup plugin that can restore from backups and set it to backup database daily and files weekly to a remote location 17frankcorso.me | @fpcorsoApril 12, 2018
  • 18. EXAMPLE MAINTENANCE STRATEGY • Use a security plugin that emails discovered file changes • Use a malware scanning tool to scan your site regularly • Ensure you have the skills to restore a backup or know someone you can call • Use a tool that checks your site every 5 to 15 minutes to ensure it is up and notifies you if it is not • Log into your site weekly to address all comments and spam 18frankcorso.me | @fpcorsoApril 12, 2018
  • 19.
