2 - White Screen of Death
The white screen of death on your WordPress site can become a big deal for you and your brand if visitors see it before you do.

White screen of death is usually caused by any of the following:
- Low limit of memory

- Bad quality themes or plugins

Whatever the reason, you need to log in ASAP and you'll need a streamlined way to get there. This is something that WordPress can do for you.

4 - Insecurity WordPress
WordPress is a fairly secure platform for your website. However, this does not mean that your site cannot be attacked. In a recent report from Sucuri, they discovered that 75% of the hacked websites they examined were made using WordPress.
The main entry point to your site is the login page. your blog. This is why you need to make sure you have sufficiently protected it. (You will always have to work on it to better protect it).
A hacked website can expose everyone: you, your business, your site visitors, and your customers. This is why you need a complete security system which will allow you to save resources sensitive.
5 - Badly coded theme
Most WordPress users have problems with free themes they download. This does not mean that the whole free theme in the WordPress directory will cause you problems. However, if you use a theme with defective encoding standards or are not regularly updated, then you may have a lot more trouble keeping your website up and running.
