Update WordPress: WordPress Versions Supported by AIOSEO

If you were linked to this page from your WordPress dashboard, then it means that you’re running an outdated version of WordPress.

WordPress runs a huge percentage of all the sites on the web. Because of WordPress’s success, it’s also a target for hackers. The version that is currently used for your site is either insecure or no longer supported.

Newer versions of WordPress are both faster and more secure. In fact, the version of WordPress your website is so old it may not be receiving automatic security updates anymore, which is why we sent you the notice.
