We need to talk. And it's going to sting a little.

Your WordPress website sucks.

It’s not your fault. You were promised a magical world of easy content management, infinite plugins, and the ability to
launch your site in an afternoon with a triple-shot latte and a few YouTube tutorials. And for a while, it worked. But
now? Things are... not so magical.

Here’s why your WordPress site is probably doing more harm than good—and what you can do to fix it.


1. You're Held Together by 17 Outdated Plugins and a Prayer

Let’s face it: your site’s functionality depends on a ragtag army of plugins written by developers who may or may not
still be alive.

You’ve got a plugin for forms, one for SEO, one for backups, one for cookie banners, another for cookie consent
banners, and one that seems to be there just to break your layout every other Tuesday.

The more plugins you have, the more fragile your site becomes. One update and suddenly your "Contact Us" form disappears
into the void. Worse? Many plugins haven’t been updated in years, which brings us to...


2. Security Vulnerabilities: A Hackers' All-You-Can-Eat Buffet

WordPress sites account for nearly 40% of all hacked websites. Why? Because hackers love low-hanging fruit, and
WordPress—with its outdated plugins, weak admin passwords, and public “/wp-admin” URLs—is a veritable orchard.

Outdated plugins are like leaving your digital front door wide open with a neon sign that says "Free credit card data
inside!" Not a great look for your brand.


3. Your Hosting Company Owns You Now

Oh, so your “free” or “$3.99/month” hosting plan promised unlimited everything and one-click installs? Guess what—you’ve
been vendor-locked harder than a 90s AOL user.

These WordPress-optimized hosting plans are often slow, bloated, and so locked down that moving your site elsewhere is
harder than canceling a gym membership.

You can leave—but they’ve got your email, your database, and your dignity.


4. Your Website Is Basically a Time Capsule From 2011

If your site is still using jQuery 1.7, inline styles, and table-based layouts... we need to talk. Modern browsers have
evolved. CSS Grid exists. Web performance matters. Mobile users are everywhere. And Google? They’re judging you silently
from afar.

WordPress can be modern, but most out-of-the-box themes are living in the past. Ancient code = poor performance, bad
SEO, and a janky user experience that makes your business look, well, kinda janky too.
