Your job is to run a winery, not become a web developer overnight.

An average of 30,000 websites are hacked every day. Bots and hackers are most likely trying to hack your winery’s website right now. The only reason you don’t know it, is because they are unsuccessful in their attempts for now.

The reason we build all of our websites on WordPress is because it is the most widely used, and in our opinion, best website platform. The downside is that it is the number one target for hackers. WordPress itself is a relatively secure platform, but the vulnerabilities lie in the plugins and integrations. One report found that as much as 98% of WordPress vulnerabilities are due to plugins.


We can help keep your website safe and up to date

If you are not regularly updating your plugins, running security scans of your website, and backing it up daily, your chances of being hacked will skyrocket. A 2020 report by IBM found that it took an average of 280 days to even identify a breach.

A key benefit of our website maintenance program is that we will ensure all plugins are updated regularly, take regular scans of your website to help us identify vulnerabilities faster, and ensure daily backups are being taken of the website.


Boost your website’s speed and performance

Currently, your website is hosted on a shared server with a random collection of other websites. If one of those websites taxes the performance of the server, it will slow down your website which can lead to frustrated users and poor SEO.
