The majority of users use WordPress.

What are the most common problems for hosting providers?

• Performance
  • Customers expect good performance no matter what level they pay for.
  • Many will install multiple plugins to help.
• Updates
  • People don’t update.
  • Core is easy. But plugins and themes are not necessarily.
  • Hosting providers need to make sure plugins and themes are updated.
• Security
  • Non-updated plugins/themes lead to security issues.

What are some ways they can prevent or quickly fix those problems?

• WordPress Toolkit - checks for updates for themes, plugins, and core.
• Smart updates - staging, updates, then checks for issues.
• Security checker - rights/permissions.

How much can does WordPress mitigate these problems? 

• In the past few releases, we’ve seen updates to security. Strong passwords, admin email check.
• Site health checker.
