Service Overview
The Work Nobody Does Until Something Breaks
Websites decay. Plugins go out of date, security holes open, backups silently stop running, and forms stop delivering to an inbox nobody checks. Almost every emergency we are called into was preventable.
A maintenance plan handles that quietly in the background: updates applied and checked, backups verified by actually restoring them, uptime monitored, and a short report each month so you know it is being done.
- Core, theme and plugin updates, tested after applying
- Automated off-site backups, restore-tested
- Uptime and security monitoring with alerts
- A monthly allowance for small content changes

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I really need a maintenance plan?
If the site matters to your business, yes. An out-of-date WordPress install is one of the most commonly exploited things on the internet, and the cost of cleaning up a hacked site and restoring rankings is far higher than a year of maintenance.
What if my site was not built by you?
That is fine. We start with an onboarding audit and tell you what needs fixing before the plan begins. If the site is in a state we cannot responsibly maintain, we will say so rather than take a monthly fee for it.
How fast do you respond to problems?
Response times are set in the plan you choose. A site that is down is treated as urgent regardless of plan — we would rather fix an outage immediately than point at a service level agreement.
Are backups really tested?
Yes, periodically restored to a staging environment. An untested backup is a guess, and the moment you discover a broken backup should not be the moment you need it.
