  1. Magento Maintenance: Best Practices to Follow Today, Magento is the most popular platform for creating e-commerce websites. It offers you various levels of customization. This feature-rich CMS (Content Management System) is used to create online stores that are the lifeblood of so many businesses. E-commerce is a very tough sector to be successful in because of the high level of competition. This is why Magento maintenance is so very important for the profitability of your online business. Why is Magento Maintenance Necessary? As stated above, e-commerce is a highly competitive sector and you cannot afford your website to crash even for a minute. Customers have so many options these days. Think of all the effort you put in trying to bring traffic to your site. The moment the traffic gets to your site if it hangs or is slow to respond it creates a negative impact on their minds. What is worse is if the site crashes. Not only will these visitors leave the site without purchasing anything, they may never return to the website at all. To keep a competitive edge over the competition, Magento store owners keep their sites up to date. The website that is the fastest to lead and gives users a seamless experience is the one that ultimately wins customer’s hearts. Best Practices to follow for Magento Maintenance 1. Regular Security Checks Security has to be the primary concern for you with your Magento website. The emphasis on Magento security is so much because, on these sites, visitors enter their personal and financial information. This information can be targeted by hackers looking to steal it. Keep your alerts active and up to date

  2. regarding any malware installation. Use various log review tools to keep a check on unauthorized admin logins. Also, actively monitor FTP and SSH for any suspicious upload or activity. 2. Removing Test Products Test products should be removed as not only do they lead to inaccurate reports but also slow down your front end queries. Unnecessary test orders eat up important disk space which also has an impact on the processing of coupons. Removing these products will noticeably improve the overall speed and performance of the Magento website. 3. Get Reliable Hosting Service Choose a web hosting service that works as per industry standards to ensure the reliability of services. Double check the coding to ensure that security is up to date. Also, for added security and customer trust, use a channel that is HTTPS secured. This also helps in SEO as well because Google gives preference to websites that use HTTPS. 4. Configuring Magento Site Cache Configuring the cache of the website will improve and optimize its performance considerably. You can select varnish cache that acts as a web accelerator that is also sometimes referred to a reverse HTTP proxy. This varnish helps in optimizing the speed of Magento webstore by saving a copy of the page in the RAM the moment any user visits the page for the first time. This also assists in managing the traffic and performance of the website. 5. Hire a Magento Maintenance Company There are so many aspects of an e-commerce business that you need to take care of.
