Security - The most important reason for regular
updates is to make sure your site is safer. All
open source applications run the risk of being
hacked,but with each set, security
vulnerabilities are corrected as they are
discovered. WordPress is constantly working to
minimize the risk of hacks within its CMS, and
updates are made available as soon as security
issues are resolved. Ensure that the version of
WordPress that you use on your site or blog is up
to date the most effective way to protect the
site. A hacked site can become disastrous,
especially if you rely on the site for your
business. It is vital that you take all necessary
precautions, especially in
terms of security to protect your customers' data.

Things to consider before updating your WordPress
site
If you plan to update your blog or WordPress
site, there are a few things you need to consider
before doing so. You need to prepare for some
eventualities, so it is essential to make a
backup. Even if your host should offer automatic
backups, it's a good idea to also make your own
backup. Vaultpress or BackupBuddy are excellent
extensions designed to create backups of
your WordPress site.

Many web site owners choose to test new updates
before installing them on their production site,
which is an idea, especially if your site is a
business site. WPStagecoach will allow you to

Like your version of WordPress, you must also
update your themes and extensions. If you have a
lot of extensions installed on your site, you
should know that there are chances that they will
stop working with the new version of WordPress.
Many people are disappointed when they install a
new version of WordPress and then discover that
their extensions are not working anymore. What
they do not realize is that very often the
extensions also need to be updated.
