Website Security Best Practices

Most website problems don’t announce themselves. A certificate quietly approaches expiry. A page starts returning a broken link. An email authentication record gets rotated and nobody updates the matching entry. A meta description disappears during an unrelated edit and rankings slip for reasons nobody can quite trace.

You built your website, launched it, and moved on. Now someone’s mentioned you should be “maintaining” it, and you’re not sure if that’s a real thing or just an upsell. It’s a real thing, and this post explains exactly what it involves and whether it makes sense for you.
