Signs showing that your Drupal website needs support and maintenance
In case you are not sure if you should hire or change your current website support team, you should check your website's health according to the industry standards. These are the most common signs that your website needs support:
Website modules or themes are outdated
If your website has outdated modules or themes, it will not satisfy visitors with a high-quality user experience. However, regular theme and module updates allow to minimize the risk of bug appearance and improve user's satisfaction.
New security updates are available
The outdated security of your Drupal website can cause a lot of problems, from minor visual bugs to partial or full website crashes. The availability of new security updates is a clear sign that your website needs a preventative maintenance service.
Visual defects appeared
Visual bugs related to styles or theming are common problems that can be easily solved through constant website maintenance. However, if problems are not solved on time, they may multiply and cause more issues.
