WordPress Maintenance & Care Plans

Every planned update is applied to staging first. If a conflict appears, we resolve it before deployment. If a production issue occurs, we roll back from the latest verified backup according to the plan's response window.

WordPress core, themes, and plugins release updates constantly — many include critical security patches. Without regular maintenance, your site becomes vulnerable to exploits, compatibility issues, and performance degradation.

A maintenance plan is preventive and ongoing: scheduled core, theme, and plugin updates tested on staging, security monitoring, backups, and uptime checks. Emergency recovery is reactive treatment for a site that is already compromised. Clients on a maintenance plan are substantially less likely to need recovery, because the most common attack vector — an outdated plugin with a known vulnerability — is closed before it can be exploited.

Cost depends on how many sites are covered, how complex each one is (WooCommerce, memberships, custom code), and the monitoring and response level you need. We confirm what each plan includes, and its price, in writing before you start.

Backups run automatically to offsite storage, so a hosting failure cannot take your backups with it. More importantly, we test restores periodically. An untested backup is an assumption, not a safety net — the moment you actually need it is the worst possible time to discover it has been silently failing for months.

Yes. We take on existing WordPress sites regardless of who built them. We start with an audit covering plugin inventory and known vulnerabilities, theme code quality, user accounts and permissions, backup status, and hosting configuration — so you get a clear picture of what you have inherited before we begin routine maintenance.

You receive a monthly report covering updates applied, threats blocked, backup status, uptime, and any performance or security changes worth your attention. If something needs a decision — an abandoned plugin that should be replaced, for instance — we raise it with a recommendation rather than burying it in a log.
