WordPress Maintenance

Your site, handled. No surprises, no scrambling.

You didn’t build your business to spend weekends worrying about plugin updates or wondering why your site went down. My maintenance retainer packages keep your WordPress site running quietly in the background — so you don’t have to worry about it.


What’s included

Core, plugin & theme updates Applied as stable releases become available — not blindly on release day. I run compatibility checks before anything goes live, so you’re not trading one problem for another.

Uptime monitoring with downtime alerts If your site goes down, I know before you do. Monitoring runs around the clock so problems get caught and addressed fast.

Monthly security scan review A fresh set of eyes on your site’s security posture each month. Catches issues early, before they become the kind of problem that makes the news.

Offsite backup monitoring & verification Daily offsite backups ensure stability in the event of an error. Monitoring that backups are running is table stakes. I actually verify they’re completing successfully — because a backup that silently failed is no backup at all.

Minor content edits Small copy tweaks, image swaps — the kind of thing that always seems to get pushed to the back burner. Just send it over.

Each month you’ll get a brief recap of what was done — no jargon, no fluff. Just a simple summary of the work performed so you’re always in the loop.


What’s not included

This retainer is scoped to ongoing maintenance and minor upkeep — that’s intentionally the point. It’s not a catch-all development contract, and keeping the scope tight is what makes it reliable.

The following fall outside this agreement and would be quoted as separate projects: new features or custom development, significant design or layout changes, in-depth e-commerce management, SEO or performance audits, complex third-party integrations, and hosting or domain management unrelated to uptime and reliability.
