WordPress Maintenance

WordPress & WooCommerce Maintenance

Updates tested on staging, daily backups, security monitoring and fast fixes for WordPress websites and WooCommerce stores, from the developers who build them.

Quick Answer: Does My WordPress Site Need Maintenance?

Yes. Outdated plugins are the most common way WordPress sites get hacked, and untested updates are the most common way they break. Regular, tested updates with reliable backups prevent both.

Your site probably needs attention if:

  • The dashboard shows plugin or theme updates waiting
  • You are not sure when the last working backup was taken
  • The site has been slow, showing errors or sending odd emails
  • Nobody would notice if the site went down overnight
  • WooCommerce checkout has failed without warning before
  • The developer who built it is no longer around

Maintenance That Prevents Problems

WordPress powers a huge share of business websites because it is flexible and easy to edit. The trade-off is upkeep: core, plugins and themes update constantly, and every update is a chance for something to conflict. Skip them and the site becomes a security risk; apply them blindly and something eventually breaks.

We do it properly: every update is applied to a staging copy and checked first, backups are taken daily and stored off-site, security is monitored and the site is watched around the clock. When something does go wrong, the people who fix it are developers who build WordPress sites and WooCommerce stores every week.

Plans start from $149 a month. See our website maintenance plans for what each level includes, or read our guide on how to maintain a WordPress website if you would rather do it yourself.

What We Look After

The parts of a WordPress site that need regular attention.

Tested Updates

WordPress core, plugins and themes updated on a staging copy first, then applied to the live site once checked.

Off-Site Backups

Daily backups stored away from your hosting, so the site can be restored if something goes wrong.

Security

Monitoring, malware scanning, login hardening and quick clean-up if anything gets through.

Uptime Monitoring

The site is checked around the clock, and we are alerted the moment it goes down.

WooCommerce Care

Test orders, payment and shipping checks after updates, and order-safe database backups.

Speed

Caching, image optimization and plugin clean-up to keep pages fast on mobile.

Fixes & Support

Broken layouts, errors and conflicts fixed by WordPress developers, not a ticket queue.

Monthly Reporting

What we updated, what we found and anything that needs your decision, in plain English.

WordPress Maintenance FAQs

Ask Us Anything
What does WordPress maintenance include?
WordPress core, plugin and theme updates tested on a staging copy first, daily off-site backups, security monitoring and malware scanning, uptime monitoring, PHP and server checks, speed reviews, and a monthly report of everything we did.
How much does WordPress maintenance cost?
Our maintenance plans start from $149 a month for security, updates and backups, with higher plans adding content hours, SEO monitoring and faster response times. You get a fixed monthly price.
Why test updates on staging first?
Most WordPress breakages come from a plugin or theme update that conflicts with something else on the site. Testing on a private copy first means conflicts are found and fixed there, not on the live site in front of your customers.
Do you maintain WooCommerce stores?
Yes. WooCommerce stores get the same updates and backups plus checks that matter for selling: test orders through checkout, payment gateway and shipping checks after updates, and database backups that include recent orders.
My WordPress site was hacked. Can you help?
Yes. We clean the infection, close the hole it came through, restore from a clean backup where needed and harden the site against a repeat. For urgent problems see WordPress fixes; ongoing maintenance is the best way to stop it happening again.
Can you take over maintenance of a site someone else built?
Yes, that is most of our maintenance work. We start with an audit of plugins, theme, hosting, backups and security, fix what is urgent, and document how the site is set up.
Can I still edit my own site?
Of course. Maintenance runs in the background. You keep full access, and if you would rather we handled content changes, the higher plans include monthly content hours.
