Frequently asked questions about the update service

How often should my website be updated?
Security updates should be applied promptly. With a maintenance contract I handle this automatically – you don't need to do anything.
What happens if a plugin is no longer supported?
I find an alternative or adapt the plugin so that it works with the new version.
Is my website offline during the update?
No. The update is first carried out in a test environment. The live website remains accessible throughout the entire process.
How much does the update service cost?
The cost depends on the system and scope. I offer both one-off updates and regular maintenance contracts.
What happens if something stops working after the update?
A full backup is created before every update. If there are any issues, I can immediately restore the previous state.
