Professional WordPress Maintenance Service That Just Works
A complete WordPress care plan — security monitoring, daily backups, plugin/theme/core updates, performance tuning, and real human support so your site stays online, fast, and safe.
Why Choose This WordPress Maintenance Service?
What You Get With My WordPress Maintenance Service
Security Monitoring & Hardening
A care plan worth paying for starts with security. I scan for malware daily, lock down wp-admin with brute-force protection, harden file permissions, monitor for known plugin vulnerabilities (CVE-cross-referenced), and apply security patches the same day they release. Hackers can’t exploit what is already patched.
Daily Encrypted Backups
Daily off-site backups encrypted at rest, retained for 30 days, with one-click restore for any point in time. Backups cover database + files + uploads + theme + plugin code. Tested monthly so we know the restore actually works — not just that the backup file exists.
Updates Done Safely
WordPress core, theme, and plugin updates applied weekly on a staging copy first. Compatibility tested before pushing to production. If an update breaks anything, the change is rolled back automatically and the issue is patched manually before the next attempt.
24/7 Uptime Monitoring
60-second-interval uptime checks from multiple geographic regions. SMS + email alerts when the site goes down, with the underlying cause investigated within 30 minutes. Most outages are resolved before your users even notice anything was wrong.
Performance & Core Web Vitals
Monthly performance report covering Lighthouse score, real-user Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP), TTFB, and asset weight. The care plan includes ongoing performance tweaks — image optimization, cache rules, autoload cleanup — so the site doesn’t slow down over time.
Database Optimization
Monthly database cleanup: remove expired transients, trim post revisions, optimize tables, audit autoloaded options, and add missing indexes on slow queries. Smaller databases mean faster wp-admin, faster queries, and lower hosting costs.
Compliance & SSL Watch
GDPR/CCPA cookie consent and privacy-policy review on a quarterly cadence. SSL certificate renewal monitored with 30-day, 14-day, and 7-day alerts so renewals never lapse. Compliance changes proposed and applied so your site stays on the right side of regulators.
Real Human Support
When you email the care-plan inbox you get a real developer — not a tier-1 chatbot. Most tickets are acknowledged within 4 working hours and resolved within the same business day. Urgent issues (site down, security breach) get out-of-hours response too.
My Care Plan Process
A predictable monthly cadence — no surprises, full transparency.
Onboarding & Site Audit
When you start the care plan I run a 50-point baseline audit — current core/plugin/theme versions, vulnerable dependencies, performance metrics, autoload size, backup history, security gaps. The audit becomes the starting point for every monthly report.
Hardening & First Backup
In week one I close any open security gaps from the audit, install the monitoring stack (uptime, malware, performance), and capture the first verified off-site backup. From this point forward your site is protected.
Weekly Updates Cycle
Every week I check for core/theme/plugin updates, test them on a staging clone, and apply to production. Compatibility with WooCommerce, LearnDash, and your other extensions is verified before any push. Rollback is one click away.
Monthly Performance Report
On the first business day of each month you get a written care-plan report — uptime stats, Lighthouse scores, Core Web Vitals, backup logs, security events, applied updates, and recommended next-month improvements. Full transparency.
Quarterly Deep Clean
Every 90 days the care plan includes a deeper pass — database optimization, autoload audit, third-party script review, broken-link sweep, image optimization re-run, and a security/penetration self-test. Things you would never remember to do on your own.
Continuous Improvement
The service is not just maintenance — it is improvement. Each monthly report ends with two or three concrete suggestions (a faster cache, a redundant plugin to remove, a new image format to adopt). Most clients see Lighthouse scores climb 5-15 points over their first six months.
