WordPress Maintenance That Keeps Your Site Safe, Current, and Running
Care builds on everything in Foundation — cloud hosting, backups, SSL, CDN — and adds the human layer: reviewed updates, security patching, uptime monitoring, and dedicated support hours every month.
Complete Monthly WordPress Care
We cover every dimension of WordPress health — updates, security, backups, performance, and uptime — so nothing falls through the cracks.
Human-Reviewed Plugin & Theme Updates
We test updates on a staging clone before applying them to your live site. No more broken pages from a plugin update gone wrong.
Security Monitoring & Patching
We scan for vulnerabilities, apply security patches as they are released, and monitor for malware — before an attacker finds the gap first.
Verified Daily Backups
Automated daily backups of your entire site — files and database — with regular restoration tests so you know your backups actually work when you need them.
Performance Checks
Monthly performance audits including database optimization, image review, and Core Web Vitals tracking to catch slowdowns before they hurt your rankings.
Uptime & Availability Monitoring
We watch your site 24/7. If it goes down, we know immediately and begin resolving the issue — often before you are even aware of a problem.
Dedicated Support Time
Every Care plan includes a monthly support allowance — 1, 2, or 3 hours depending on your plan — for content updates, troubleshooting, and small changes. Our standard rate is $200/hr — plan clients pay $165, $140, or $115/hr for overage depending on their plan. Prepaid 5-hour ($500) and 10-hour ($900) blocks are available any time.
