WordPress maintenance services

Ongoing care for the site you already have.

Maintenance starts with your existing website. We agree what needs checking, what needs fixing, and the support you need.

01 / UPDATE

WordPress, theme & plugin updates.

Updates can affect layouts, forms, and other parts of your website. I review the existing setup, make the agreed updates, and check the important pages and features afterwards.

Post-update checks

02 / PROTECT

Backups & security checks.

A useful backup needs a clear recovery plan. I review your backup setup, check for avoidable security issues, and help address problems with access, plugins, or site configuration.

Before we start

WordPress maintenance questions.

What ongoing care covers, how changes are checked, and what I need to get started.

What does WordPress website maintenance include?

The scope can include WordPress, theme, and plugin updates; backup checks; security reviews; content changes; layout fixes; and page speed improvements. We agree the work your website needs before maintenance starts.

Can you maintain a website built by someone else?

Yes. I start by reviewing the existing setup and any known issues. This helps us identify what can be maintained safely and whether any fixes are needed before ongoing care begins.

Will you check the website after updating it?

Yes. I check the important pages and agreed features after updates. Depending on your site, that may include navigation, mobile layouts, forms, and checkout. The checks are agreed as part of the maintenance scope.

Can you help with Elementor and WooCommerce websites?

Yes. I work with WordPress websites built using Elementor, Breakdance, Kadence, and Gutenberg, including WooCommerce stores. I review the theme, plugins, and any custom functionality before making changes.

Do you include backups and security checks?

Backup and security work can form part of the agreed maintenance scope. I review how backups are created and stored, discuss recovery needs, and check the website for avoidable configuration or access issues.

What do you need to get started?

Your website URL, a short description of any problems, and the support you need. Once the scope is agreed, we arrange the appropriate WordPress and hosting access. Credentials should be shared securely.
