What is WordPress Site Health Test?<\/h2>\n

It is a new test that is available on the newest version of WordPress. This test can be used to give you a health check or testing score based on several tests. You can view the result of this test by visiting the Site Health menu on the Tools tab in your admin area. Getting this score will ensure that your site is running in optimum condition<\/strong>. Here are some useful tips that can help you achieve a good score on this test. Our experts from our WordPress development agency also do some of these steps for our client’s websites.<\/p>\n

Install HTTPS or SSL on Your Site<\/h2>\n

SSL will protect your web by encrypting all data transfer from the server to the users\u2019 browsers. Any websites with this SSL security feature will use HTTPS instead of using the HTTP in their URLs. These websites will also have a padlock icon<\/strong> on the address bar. You need to install the SSL certificate on the website.<\/p>\n

Most hosting providers are going to offer a free Let\u2019s Encrypt SSL<\/a> certificate for their clients. This SSL certificate is required to ensure that all visitors from your website are protected by this system. If you don\u2019t know how to install this SSL, you can contact our WordPress development agency now.<\/p>\n

Always Keep Your WordPress Site Updated<\/h2>\n

WordPress is open-source software that is updated regularly. Every new release of WordPress will bring some new features, security features, and some bug fixes. Because of this reason, our experts from our WordPress development agency always recommend our clients to keep their sites updated.<\/p>\n

The Updated WordPress version will protect you from any dangerous malware or unwanted threats from the Internet. You will get a good score when you update your WordPress site regularly. You can also turn on the automatic updates<\/strong> on your WordPress.<\/p>\n

Keep All WordPress Themes And Plugins Updated<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

If you have some plugins or themes on your WordPress site, you should keep them updated. Our WordPress development agency can also help you update all used themes and plugins, especially when you use our ongoing WordPress management service<\/a> from our WordPress development agency. It is highly recommended for you to keep all of these plugins and themes updated, so you can prevent<\/strong> your website to become vulnerable to any security issues.<\/p>\n

Use The Latest PHP Version<\/h2>\n

This task may be intimidating for some beginner users. However, you need to do this step for improving the overall score of your Site Health test for your WordPress site. Using the latest version of PHP will give you a powerful website with a boosted performance<\/strong>. It will ensure that your website is compatible with any new WordPress plugins.<\/p>\n

If your website is still using the older version of PHP, you can contact us at our WordPress development agency. We have some experts who know how to update this PHP from your website immediately. The updating process doesn\u2019t take too much of your time. The PHP update may take a few minutes to be done completely.<\/p>\n

Disable The WordPress Debug Mode<\/h2>\n

This is a special mode that is offered for developers and advanced users. You can use this mode for seeing if the theme or plugin is making some errors. When you want to have a live website, you may want to turn off this WordPress debug mode. This debut mode will cause some notices and warnings in the admin area which will affect the user experience<\/strong>. If you don\u2019t know how to perform this step, you can always call us at our WordPress development agency.<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t have to get a 100% score on the site health test. Once you reach up to 80% of the score, it will be good enough to run your website without having any issues.
