WordPress Website Maintenance Service – Why Do You Need It?

To keep your WordPress website performing well after its online publication, your website still needs to be managed and technically maintained. It is not prudent to just publish your website and walk away thinking “job-done”.

Search engines such as Google, Yahoo! and Bing are constantly evolving using artificial intelligence and changing their algorithms (the way they evaluate your website) to finely hone their users search experience. Therefore, properly managing and technically maintaining a website ensures it stays in tune with changing search engine technology and software environment.

After the publication of your website, I can continue to be the webmaster for your website, providing website technical support and carrying out any website maintenance required.

The WordPress Website Maintenance Services are renewable monthly or annually, and, depending on your specific case, it can include the renewal of hosting space and domain name, maintaining website security, monitoring website traffic, search engine re-submissions and tracking changes, as well as recovering your website in case of disaster.

Nowadays, many people simply forget to backup their enterprise website: Maybe the stress of running their business, the lack of knowledge or any other reasons.

Some of the bad scenarios when you need a site backup:

  • Hacked site recovery – In case you need to recover your business website very fast, and in the same way it was, you need a backup.
  • WordPress updates break your website – It happens. Every time you make a theme or plugin update, make sure you do a backup before. Most of the people put those updates on “auto” mode, meaning your WordPress site can go down while your potential clients are surfing on it. That’s bad!
  • Cheap hosting – One of the biggest problems with those cheap hosting providers ($1/month, $5/month, $15/month) with UNLIMITED traffic, UNLIMITED domains and other misleading offers may disappear after a few weeks you just bought their plan(s). Guess what?! Your website will disappear, too. In order to keep your website online, you need someone (person or software) to take care of it, and taking prompt action in case of any problems.

In any case, you need a fresh and well-structured backup of your website. But these WordPress site maintenance services aren’t only about backups. I also provide Security protection for your site and implement the last réglementation in matter of WordPress security. Your website is in safe hands and your enterprise will continue to prosper.

Why is WordPress website maintenance important?

WordPress is the most successful CMS (*content management system). Due to its heavy use worldwide, however, it is also a popular target for hackers. Similar to an operating system on the computer, WordPress must be updated regularly. Functionalities are expanded and security gaps are closed. Once regularly updated, WordPress is stable and secure. However, WordPress installations that are rarely updated or not updated at all are vulnerable and run the risk of being infected by malicious code.

I take care of all the necessary details to make your WordPress website more secure and regularly update the WordPress core system and all plugins used. In the first step, I carry out a basic check of your WordPress website. I check the WordPress core data, plugins and themes used. I check the performance and carry out the first security checks. Your system is checked for security gaps and for viruses, malware or Trojans. I am interested in the general condition of your website and the associated immunity of the system. As soon as the basis is right, all further work follows.

I keep your WordPress website up to date with regular updates

For the operation of a professional WordPress website, it is necessary to ensure regular updates of the system and the installed plugins and themes. Regular updates are the basic work for a safe and stable WordPress website. I carry out these essential tasks and constantly stabilize the immune system of your website. At the same time, we check the compatibility of the individual plugins and the functionality of the entire website after each update.

I create backups of your WordPress website

Your website is important to your business and often the focus of many marketing efforts. A successful website puts a lot of time and energy into it. This business area can be temporarily paralyzed by WordPress problems such as incompatible plugins or themes. This is not yet about hacker attacks or other infections. That’s why regular backups are the reinsurance of your website. Thanks to a WordPress backup, we can quickly restore normal operation of your website in an emergency. I take care of your WordPress security and create regular data backups on external servers and secure your business sustainably.

I check your WordPress website after each update

In addition to the necessary updates to the WordPress core version and the plugins used to keep your website stable and up-to-date, a subsequent check of your website for functionality is mandatory. Since plugins are offered by different developers and companies, incompatibilities can never be ruled out. Especially when using many plugins, the risk increases and problems can occur. Therefore, a function test of the website after each update should be routine. I offer you this routine and can also carry out an analysis of the plugins you use to determine whether they are necessary.

I do the work for you. You save time and money.

I am your specialized service provider for the care and maintenance of WordPress websites. As a web developer, I’ve been dealing with WordPress for many years (since 2008, more exactly) and have gained extensive experience. Benefit from my knowledge and save time and money and concentrate on your core business. I concentrate on your WordPress website and take care of all technically demanding maintenance work. I keep an eye on all components and carry out major WordPress upgrades, updates and minor updates to plugins and themes.

I carry out security scans to detect malware and other infections, check the availability of your website (up-time monitoring) and create regular backups. If there are problems with the website, I will inform you in good time and offer solutions at short notice. The maintenance packages include all the important functions to keep your WordPress website stable, secure and long-term.


For other WordPress website maintenance services, such as adding new content (text, images, WooCommerce products), as well as adding new features, the price is $75/hour (negotiable, depending of the nature of tasks and the number of hours you need). For urgent WordPress support, you can contact me anytime.

Frequently Asked Questions

WordPress maintenance service is the process where you (the customer) hire me (the developer) in order to make sure your site is functioning properly. It include security, recovery and update tasks (theme update, plugin(s) update, content update, backup creation, recovery of site, etc.), or fixing existing website issues (broken links, SEO and speed optimization, etc.)

Right now I provide 3 website maintenance plans: Basic plan ($87/mo), Standardt plan ($174/mo) and Premium plan ($348/mo). You can find more here: Plans and Pricing

Yes! Website maintenance is very important for your site. If you’re a busy business owner, or simply you don’t have enough spare time to administrate the site, maintaining the site is an extra worry. Not mentioning that if your site represents your online identity and it is hacked, broken or put down (from different reasons), there will be an extra worry for you.

Sites go down every time, even on the big companies (Amazon site went down on July 16, 2018; Microsoft site went down on June 20, 2018; etc), but having someone who take care of it and recover it fast when things go wrong, it’s stress-free aspect. Basically, when you hire me as your website administrator, you will have extra time to relax and to focus on your business and family.

Of course you can. I don’t reinvent the wheel. The main purpose of this service is to give you, as entrepreneur, more time. And you, in your position, understand the value of each second.

There are also people who own websites, but they are simply not too technical. They perform better in other areas and they hire professionals where they know is a lack of knowledge.

As you know, there are 3 maintenance plans. The following points are included in each plan:

  • Full Website Backup
  • Security checks
  • Website backups
  • WordPress theme, core, and plugin updates
  • Up-time monitoring
  • Recovery, in case of disaster

According to your chosen plan, there will be, for example, monthly full website backups, weekly or daily.

Specific to each plan, there is also a response time, where the priority is on the Premium plan (within 24 hours), followed by the Standardt plan (within 48 hours) and Basic plan (within 72 hours).

On the Standardt and Premium plan, I offer more benefits, like:

  • Publish new articles
  • SEO reports
  • Security reports
  • Free website migration
  • and many more benefits…

*Note that you have to provide the content (text, media content, etc) for the articles/pages you want to publish. I can also provide content writing (through my business partners), but you have to pay an extra fee for that, and the rates are different from niche to niche. If you need copywriting, just message me and I will find the a way to help you.

Of course you can. But if your site is constantly going offline, and I identify that the cause is due to the hosting performance, you have to upgrade the hosting plan or change the hosting provider. If you don’t accept (from different reasons), I cannot provide you website maintenance, because this service is not compatible with low-performance hosting servers.

In order to get the best of my service, you have to make sure your actual hosting server comply with your website requirements.

If you want to upgrade/change the actual hosting provider, I can advice you from where to buy (it can be my hosting service or any other decent hosting provider – I really don’t care too much about this aspect, it’s not an important one) and what are the best amount of resources (RAM, CPU, server location) for your site.

If you are using monthly payment, you can change to upgrade/downgrade the plans. If you already paid for the an entire year, you can only upgrade the plan (if there is a superior plan), but you cannot downgrade and ask for a refund.

If you made a mistake and bought the service without intention, you can ask for a refund in the first 12h after you made the payment. No refund will be issued after 12 hours. This apply for both monthly and yearly plans.

Payments for the Website Maintenance plans are non-refundable, and I do not issue pro rata refunds for fees paid in advance. Once a payment or deposit is made, it is non-refundable. All Setup fees are nonrefundable as it is applied to costs immediately incurred by WebsitesSeller.com in initiating services. If a project is cancelled or postponed, all moneys paid are retained by WebsitesSeller.com and if applicable, a fee for all work completed beyond what was already paid for shall be paid by the client.

Your credit card is charged automatically, through PayPal or Stripe, at the start of each billing cycle.

  1. For the monthly plans, you will get billed each month, on the day you’ve initially signed up.
  2. For the yearly plans, you will get billed after 12 months, in the same month and day you’ve initially signed up.

Once payment is completed you receive an email invoice to let you know your payment has posted.

Yes. After more than 10 years being inside the industry, I know what my clients’s sites required in matter of hosting performance, and I provide tailored solutions for each client.

The “Support Time” feature is how much time I invest in your website per month. Here is the monthly support time for each plans:

  • Basic plan: 30 minutes per month
  • Standardt plan: 60 minutes per month
  • Premium plan: 120 minutes per month

Example: If you subscribe for the Basic plan, you will get 30 minutes monthly. In this 30-minutes time, I will make the required updates and configurations.


Note: If your site got offline and it needs recovery (it got hacked or an update went wrong, etc.), the time invested in the recovery process will not be counted as the support time. Even the 30 minutes support time were spent, I will invest all the time required to put the site back, without discussion. In fact, this is one of the ideas of this kind of service. To keep my clients’s sites online, running without any issue.

You have to provide the formatted content (text and images), as I already mentioned at the point 5, above. However, I can also provide content writing (through my business partners), but you have to pay an extra fee for that, and the rates are different from niche to niche. If you need copywriting, just message me and I will find the a way to help you.

Note: You are fully responsible for the text you provide.

Yes, this feature is included in the Premium plan, when you choose the yearly subscription. It is not included in the monthly Premium plan.

Keep in mind that I don’t guarantee top scores. It depends on:

  1. The site structure – If the site is messy (bloated code, a lot of uncompressed media, etc.), it will require a site redesign, and not a website maintenance service. So, we have to negotiate another deal.
  2. Bad hosting – I cannot speed-up sites on bad hosting servers. You have to change it to a better one.

I will migrate your site for free, for each of the yearly plans and for the monthly Premium plan.

I do the following migrations:

  1. Sub-domain to domain.
  2. Hosting transfer.
  3. Hosting and domain transfer.

Note: The migration benefit apply only for the sites under 750mb, as presented in the WordPress Transfer service. Basically, you will get what is mentioned in the WordPress Transfer service for free.

Depending on the website maintenance you have, here are the maximum time I will respond to your requests:

  1. Basic plan: Within 72 hours
  2. Standardt plan: Within 48 hours
  3. Premium plan: Within 24 hours

For example, if you have the basic maintenance plan and you want to fix/update/change something, I will respond in maximum 72 hours after I’ll receive your message request.

The priority of the requests are counted in the following hierarchy: Premium -> Standardt -> Basic.

Undecided?

Please mention as much information as you can and I will recommend the best suited WordPress maintenance plan.
