Monthly WordPress care
Launch day is only the beginning.
As well as website design, we also offer monthly WordPress website maintenance packages to provide you with the essential support needed to ensure your website remains up to date and fully functional once pushed live.
For a monthly fee we will continue to manage the website, taking care of the essential technical maintenance required to keep you protected online: updates, backups, security and speed, handled by the studio.

Why maintenance matters
WordPress keeps moving. Your site should too.
Security
WordPress and its plugins are updated regularly, often to fix security issues. Websites left unpatched are easier targets.
Compatibility
Plugins and WordPress core change over time. Keeping them current together reduces the risk of features breaking or clashing.
Performance
Speed tends to slip as content and plugins build up. Ongoing optimisation helps keep pages quick to load.
What’s included
Seven things, handled every month.
Every maintenance plan covers the same essentials, so your WordPress website stays current, backed up and protected.
Website hosting including SSL certificate
Your WordPress website is hosted and secured with an SSL certificate as part of the plan.
Weekly CMS & plugin updates
WordPress core and your plugins are kept up to date every week, rather than whenever someone remembers.
Daily backups
A fresh copy of your website every day, so there is always a recent version to fall back on.
Monthly website support time
Time each month for us to help with your website, included in your plan.
Firewall & malware protection
Suspicious traffic is filtered and the site is checked for malicious code.
Phone & email support
Talk to the studio directly when you have a question or something doesn’t look right.

Questions
WordPress maintenance, answered.
What’s included in WordPress website maintenance?
Our monthly plans include website hosting with an SSL certificate, weekly CMS and plugin updates, daily backups, monthly website support time, firewall and malware protection, phone and email support, and website speed optimisation.
How often are WordPress and plugins updated?
WordPress core and plugin updates are applied weekly, alongside daily backups of your website.
My website is brand new. Does it still need maintenance?
Yes. WordPress and plugin developers keep releasing updates after your website goes live, including security fixes. Maintenance keeps a new site as current and protected as it was on launch day.
Does WordPress maintenance include hosting?
Yes. Our maintenance plans include website hosting with an SSL certificate, so the server and the WordPress site on it are looked after together.
Can you maintain a WordPress website you didn’t build?
Please get in touch. We would want to understand how the site was built, which plugins it relies on and where it is hosted before recommending a plan.
What happens if something goes wrong?
Daily backups mean there is a recent copy of your website to restore, and you can reach us by phone or email. Plans also include monthly website support time.
