Is WordPress the right CMS for my website?
WordPress powers over 65 million websites — including major brands like CNN and Vogue — and it’s what we use here at Pedalo.
It’s a strong choice if you want a website that’s cost-effective, easy to manage, and flexible enough to grow with your needs. WordPress also follows W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) standards and is well-optimised for SEO, so your site performs well across all devices and search engines.

How does SEO work on WordPress?
WordPress is well structured for SEO, making it easier for search engines to crawl and rank your content.
With the right plugin, such as Yoast or Rank Math, you can control how your pages appear in search results, including titles and meta descriptions.
Combined with high quality content and proper site setup, WordPress provides a strong foundation for attracting organic traffic.

How should you protect your WordPress site?
Bots are constantly scanning the internet for vulnerabilities, so having proper security in place is essential to keep your WordPress site safe from hacking or malware.
Start by installing a reputable security plugin such as Wordfence. This provides a firewall to block malicious traffic and a scanner to detect threats in your files and content.
Keep WordPress core, themes and plugins updated automatically to fix any known vulnerabilities as soon as possible.
It’s also important to back up your website regularly. This ensures you can quickly restore it if anything goes wrong. Use a reliable backup plugin like UpdraftPlus or BackWPup, or create manual backups and store them securely.
