Keeping your installation of WordPress or WordPress MU up to date is important because it insures that it and the rest of your website is not hacked through a vulnerability in WordPress. In addition to making sure your website is secure, new releases add new features and functionality. The current version of WordPress and WordPress MU is 2.9.2. Starting with version 2.7, the updating portion, but not the backup portion, of upgrade has been automated and is easy to do.

  4. Run WordPress upgrade program, if necessary

Depending on what version of WordPress is currently installed, a number of incremental upgrades must be made during the upgrade process due to changes that are made to the WordPress installation.
