WordPress Cleanup Activities You Should Be Doing

There are many WordPress maintenance activities you should be doing to ensure your blog looks great and works correctly. If you skip these maintenance steps, the user experience on your blog is likely to suffer, and that means fewer people will visit your blog. Ten of the most important WordPress cleanup activities you should be doing are listed below. If you do nothing else to ensure your blog is running smoothly, do the ten things in this list.

Keep in mind, if you use the WordPress-hosted application at WordPress.com, many of these activities are done for you by WordPress. Bloggers who self-host using the application from WordPress.org will need to perform all of these activities themselves.
