Common WordPress Challenges
Many small business owners face these frustrations when using WordPress
Security Vulnerabilities
WordPress sites are frequently targeted by hackers due to their popularity and plugin vulnerabilities, requiring constant vigilance and updates.
Performance Issues
As plugins accumulate, WordPress sites often become slow and bloated, creating poor user experiences and hurting SEO rankings.
Constant Maintenance
WordPress requires regular updates to the core, themes, and plugins to stay secure and functional, consuming valuable time and resources.
Plugin Conflicts
Adding multiple plugins often leads to compatibility issues, causing unexpected errors and functionality problems on your website.
Hidden Costs
While WordPress is free, the real costs add up quickly: premium themes, essential plugins, security tools, hosting, and professional help.
SEO Complications
Achieving good SEO with WordPress requires multiple plugins and technical knowledge that most small business owners lack.
