Ensuring the health and safety of your website is crucial for maintaining your online presence and fostering relationships with both existing and potential customers. A simple internet search can help users learn more about your products, services, and, importantly, whether your website is safe and up-to-date. Website owners have ethical and legal responsibilities to protect customer data.

What Does the Health and Safety of a Website Mean?

Roughly put your website is safe and healthy if,

• Your website is secure i.e., visitors can connect via HTTPS secure channel or if tricksters are not able to inject any code into your website
• Your website performance is optimal i.e., all the pages load up faster and does not take up too much memory on the visitors’ devices
• Your search visibility is ideal i.e., people can navigate to your website through search engines for which search engines need to index your website pages and content
• Your visitors have a pleasant experience i.e., if they can communicate with you through contact forms or chats and your website is responsive on mobile (as compared to your website viewed on a laptop/desktop)
• You are notified of any issues that may have happened or might be happening like malware attacks, website giving an error or is inaccessible to the outside world.
