Why would my WordPress website be broken ?
There are many reasons your website could be broken but here are some of the most common reasons we see:
- WordPress software is outdated
- Themes are outdated or not compatible with the latest version of WordPress
- Plugins are outdated or obsolete and are no longer compatible with your Theme
- Security Issues such as mismatch SSL Certificates
- Old PHP version or theme is not compatible with latest PHP
- OR, worst case senario……….you’ve been hacked :/
If you had a website built a while ago chances are no one has logged into the backend for a long time.
Sometimes a simple update is all it takes to get things back on online. But don’t be fooled, this is far from a simple process unless you have experience with WordPress.
You might get lucky and updating it yourself, it may seem to fix but days later it goes down again.

- You know how to take complete backups of your website
- Complete backup of your databases
