Plugins Gone Wild

What many people don’t realize is the amount of Plugins used on a WordPress site can greatly affect website performance. The last thing you want is to have your plugins gone wild! If Plugins are used poorly, it can affect the site in a negative manner. For example, it can increase hacking risk or slowing down site speed. If there are too many plugins installed, it could slow the website down significantly. Plus, it even cause conflicts on the website. When a significant number of plugins are installed on a single site, there will be endless updates to ensure the site will work properly. If the site is not profitable for a developer, it may be abandoned with no support, which could also lead to hacking.

When it comes to WordPress, it should be avoided if possible to avoid custom coding. Here at Zelen Communications, we hand write our client’s unique code to avoid the use of plugins. We find it easier to work with for future website development and it helps the overall user experience.  By hand writing our client’s code, we can add new content, work around configurations and develop a perfect site.
