How does a typical procedure work?
A WordPress site hosted elsewhere was displaying a critical error after updating WooCommerce. The original host simply replied: «The server is working, contact a webmaster».
The customer ordered one hour of maintenance. We took charge: full site backup, duplication on one of our servers, log analysis, downgrading of the offending plugin: the problem was solved on our server.
After discussion with the customer, he chose to migrate his site to LRob. We carried out the migration and resolved the problem in a single step, taking advantage of fast DNS transition rules (TTL) and the inaccessibility of the site on the old server.
Following this migration to LRob, the site was more than 2x faster, with numerous additional security features and truly efficient support. Thanks to our advice, the site regained its stability and hasn't crashed for several years now.
