WORDPRESS MAINTENANCE

Let us save you time and effort by taking the admin of your site off your hands.

 

Website maintenance is a bit like a car…

You buy a new car, you keep it serviced, check the pressure in your tyres before long journeys, clean it etc. And why? So that it stays running well and reliable. And because a well maintained car is likely to last longer without needing expensive repairs.

With your website, you should maintain it, keep plugins updated ensure security updates are performed on time etc. Why? So that it’s always secure, fast and performing well.

 

But it’s boring

We know! It’s not only a boring task but maintaining your website can be very time consuming.

Running security updates, updating plugins, checking your site speed, taking backups, all takes time.

And that’s before we even get to adding content, changing images etc!

Our maintenance plans will…

SAVE YOU HOURS OF TIME

GIVE YOU COMPLETE PEACE OF MIND

SAVE YOU FROM HEADACHES IN THE FUTURE

Key Features

PLUGIN AND THEME UPDATES

We’ll update your plugins and themes on a weekly basis and give your site a visual check over once it’s done. Ensuring that the update process doesn’t break anything. If it does, we’ll trouble shoot the error and either fix it, or roll back the update and inform you.

UPTIME MONITORING

We’ll monitor the uptime of your site and if we detect that it’s down we’ll alert you.

If you’re on our hosting then we’ll give you priority support and get you back up and running asap.

OFF SITE BACKUPS

We can provide additional offsite backups on a daily or weekly basis. Ideal if you’re not on your hosting and your current provider keeps backups on your local server.

Not required if you’re using our hosting as we do this for you anyway.

MAINTENANCE DASHBOARD

You will be given access to a maintenance dashboard and receive a monthly report showing exactly which updates we’ve done for you, ensuring transparency throughout the whole process.

PERFORMANCE REPORT

We’ll test the performance of your site using Google Pagespeed and include this on your dashboard and monthly reports. This will allow you to monitor how changes to your site may have impacted loading times.

 

DISCOUNTED DEVELOPMENT TIME

Pre book development time and receive this at a reduced rate. The time is tracked inside your maintenance dashboard so you can see how much you’ve used. Could be used for anything from swapping images, small design changes or posting blogs for you.

Questions

If you still have any questions after checkout the FAQs then simply drop us a note below and we’ll get back to you asap.

Can I just sign up online?

Yep! Just follow the link below to get started, or book a chat first so we can chat through your exact requirements.

Do you only maintain sites you've built or host?

No, we’ll provide this service for anyone. We do need admin access to your site, but we can walk you through setting this up for us.

The maintenance is pretty easy, can't I just do it myself?

Absolutely! We even have a blog showing you exactly what you should be doing to keep your plugins and themes updated.

But, do you do them on a regular basis? Often it’s not the process of doing them that people struggle with, it’s just finding the time. And when you’re running a small business, time is money. Outsourcing the bits you don’t enjoy, or don’t find time to do, is just good business sense.

How do I get my reports?

You receive an invite to an online dashboard and you also get a PDF emailed to you on a monthly basis.

My uptime says it's only been up x days, but I know it's been longer than that?

Our system can only track the uptime from the moment it’s set up, so won’t show historic figures.

Should my uptime be 100%?

Ideally yes, but there is always some server level maintenance that needs to be done on every hosting solution and issues are not completely avoidable.

As long as outages are out of business hours and the average is still over 99% then there’s nothing to worry about.

My mobile speed is slow, should I worry?

Probably not is the answer. Although we show both the desktop and mobile speeds on our reports, pay closer attention to the desktop one.

This isn’t because most of the traffic is on the desktop, but because Google Pagespeed makes some incorrect assumptions when looking at mobile speeds. For example, it tests using a 3G connection (70% of mobile traffic in the UK is actually on fast WiFi!).

The desktop score is closer to real world speed tests.

You can sign up for maintenance only packages here. If you want to include development work, please get in touch so we can have a chat about your requirements before we move forward.

Once signed up, you’ll receive an email explaining how to give us access and as soon as you’ve completed those steps we’ll get you up and running.
