Every website goes through problems like
Domain names expireoutdated or stale content
broken links andmore..
That's why a checklist is a must to address all these issues and keep a site healthy and user
friendly
An expired domain name can literally KILL all your traffic. So, at least once a year, check the status of your domain in order to make sure it is not expired.
1. Check domain name Status
Content Management Systems like WordPress get updates frequently. Ignoring these upgrades can result in broken links, broken images and worse your site becomes vulnerable
2. Don’t ignore updates
3. Provide fresh contentto your Website
No user will read the same thing over and over again. So, instead of a stale content, keep researching and adding fresh ones to your site and update the old ones to keep them alive as well.
4. Must checkbroken links
If you site has backlinks from other sites, make sure you check them for discrepancies. Broken links not only harms your SEO ranking but users don’t like it as well
5. Test your Website across all Internet browsers
Checking your website across multiple browsers is always a good exercise. This helps find design flaws in your site and helps enhance user’s experience

6. Check Load time
Loading time is a very important factor in site maintenance. Your visitors won’t bear a slow site! So, find out elements slowing your site and fix those.
7. Check your data backups
Amidst hackers and server issues, you can easily loose your content. So, make sure your data backup doesn’t get lost.
8. Proofread
A website content can be filled with typo errors and more. However, its correction is possible. So, last but not the least you must proofread everything before it goes online.
