It all depends on a few factors. Specifically:
- What platform is your website built on (WordPress or something else)
- How likely your website is to be the target of an attack
- How important is it that your website be accessible
If you have a WordPress hobby blog that’s just for friends and family, paying extra to keep your blog safe probably isn’t a priority. However, if you have a business website that you need up-and-running in order to sell your business, keeping your website safe from being targeted by exploits is exceptionally important.
