Companies are increasingly investing in their online presence as websites have become an essential part of customer interaction and marketing. But what happens when these websites go down or are faulty?

This comparison shows how professional WordPress maintenance minimizes downtime and error frequency, ultimately leading to a positive economic result.

Downtime and faulty websites: Costs and impact

Direct costs

Loss of sales: For an online store, every minute of downtime can mean a direct loss of sales. A study shows that the average cost of one hour of downtime can amount to around 1,000 euros, including repairs.

Repair costs: If a website goes down or is hacked, emergency measures often have to be taken, which can be costly.

Indirect costs

Reputational damage: Customer trust can suffer considerably if a website is regularly down or insecure.

SEO losses: Search engines such as Google value the user-friendliness and accessibility of websites, which means that frequent outages can have a negative impact on rankings.

Professional WordPress maintenance: costs and benefits

Maintenance costs

Basic maintenance: approx. 95.00 € per month .

Extended maintenance: Depending on the scope of individual requirements, the costs may be higher, but for this comparison we are looking at basic maintenance.

Benefits of maintenance

Reduced downtime: Regular updates and security measures significantly reduce the risk of downtime .

Increased security: Regular security updates and monitoring prevent security gaps and attacks.

Optimized performance: Regular maintenance ensures that the website always runs optimally, resulting in a better user experience and higher conversion rates.

Correlation: downtimes and maintenance expenditure

To illustrate the positive correlation between professional maintenance and reduced risk, we consider the following hypothetical scenarios:

Scenario A: Without professional maintenance
Monthly downtime: up to 4 hours
Costs per hour of downtime incl. repair: up to 1,000 euros
Monthly downtime costs: up to4 x 1,000 = 4,000 euros

Scenario B: With professional maintenance
Monthly downtime: 0 hours to 0.5 hours (due to maintenance intervals)
Monthly maintenance costs: €95.00

Comparison of total costs

Without professional maintenance:
Total costs per month: up to 4,000 euros (downtime costs) plus major loss of reputation

With professional maintenance:
Maintenance Total costs per year: EUR 1,140
Downtime: none, only maintenance through service intervals

Cost savings through regular WordPress maintenance

The comparison clearly shows that investing in professional WordPress maintenance leads to considerable cost savings. By reducing downtime and minimizing security risks, the maintenance costs quickly pay for themselves.

Companies also benefit from an improved user experience and increased customer confidence. Overall, it is clear that professional maintenance is not only a necessary measure, but also an economically sensible investment.

We are the experts for WordPress maintenance | update | backup | security

With the rapid progress of modern web technologies, onehundred.digital's expertise in WordPress maintenance is becoming increasingly indispensable. The Berlin-based online marketing agency uses the latest technologies and frameworks to make WordPress websites not only functional, but also user-friendly and secure. Their in-depth understanding of web development enables them to offer customized solutions that are optimally tailored to the specific requirements of their customers.

One of the main tasks in maintaining a WordPress site is regularly installing security updates. WordPress, as the world's most widely used content management system, is a popular target for hacker attacks. The developers of WordPress and the numerous plugins and themes regularly publish updates to close security gaps. However, these updates must not only be installed, but also tested to ensure that they do not cause any compatibility issues. In addition, working on customizations and extensions requires in-depth knowledge of PHP, JavaScript and other web technologies to ensure that the specific requirements of corporate websites are always met.

Another important aspect of WordPress maintenance is ensuring regular backups and performance optimization.
These backups are essential in order to be able to restore the website quickly in the event of data loss or a hacker attack. onehundred.digital ensures that these backups are carried out automatically and regularly and that it is checked whether the restoration actually works in an emergency.
By continuously monitoring the website for errors and performance problems, potential problems can be identified and rectified at an early stage before they lead to major outages. Comprehensive support and ongoing optimization ensure that the website is always up to date and functions optimally.
