What this site is
Websites Upgrade is an independent editorial site about keeping and upgrading existing websites — speed, security, SEO-safe changes, refresh-vs-rebuild decisions, platforms, and maintenance in the age of AI.
Nothing is sold on this site. The guides are the product: specific, dated, testable advice for people who own or run a website and need to decide what to do with it.
Editorial Policy
Guides are vendor-neutral: when we recommend a tool or platform, we give the case against it in the same section. Facts that can rot — version numbers, thresholds, end-of-life dates — are dated, and every guide carries an "as of" year.
Disclosure
Websites Upgrade currently runs no ads and uses no affiliate links. If that changes, it will be disclosed here and on the pages involved.
Privacy
We do not sell, rent, or trade reader personal data. We use Cloudflare Turnstile to protect our forms from spam; no advertising trackers are used on this site. Newsletter email addresses are stored solely to send Upgrade Notes.
