Why you need a website care plan
The sites we build are solid, but if you don’t keep up with your website maintenance regularly, you may actually be throwing money out the window.
There’s nothing more off putting for your visitors than a website full of problems and things going wrong. They aren’t likely to stick around.
Once we’ve built your site, it must be checked regularly to see how it’s functioning; missed website issues or downtime can lose you potential customers.
The benefits of website maintenance
Many people aren’t aware of the benefits of website maintenance.
Your website’s security, performance, page load time, downtime and uptime are all dependent on the WordPress software and the plugins being up to date and working as they should be.
Your website’s growth, having fresh content, the analytics monitoring and design changes, are all dependent on you having someone making sure all updates to the website are done in a smooth and error-free fashion.

Our Process
All the sites we look after are hugely important to us and we are hyper vigilant with our updating process.
If we ever catch a security or plugin issue, we will probably address it before you ever know there’s a problem!
We are alerted whenever a site goes offline and get to work bringing sites back online with urgency.
The Maintenance Workflow
We take great care to first backup the website, create a staging website for testing when appropriate, then check for any issues that may have come about due to the updates.
Our software keeps a record of the plugins are updated so that, if there is ever an issue, we can see exactly what plugin version was changed and revert back to the previous one.
We perform daily backups, monitor security, performance and uptime 24/7 and provide 30 minutes per month ‘Tinker Time’ to make
Dangers of DIY Maintenance
Maintaining your site yourself could cost you more than you may think.
Updating from your WordPress admin means you don’t have a record of exactly what was done. If an update creates an issue a couple weeks later, it’s hard to know what changed, and how you should revert back without restoring a very old backup (and possibly losing content changes, sales orders, and blog posts!).
If, in the worst case scenario, your site completely breaks, and it’s hard to know what to do next!
Prevention is Better Than Cure
Inexperience and neglect can damage the look and functionality of your website. When the worst happens, you have a choice to make.
Your first choice is to try and fix it yourself; pretty scary, time consuming, and you could do more damage.
The second option is to pay the (sometimes hefty) price for an experienced web professional to fix it. Not ideal.
Just like your car, it costs more to fix than it does to maintain properly.
Regular services help keep your car running; regular site maintenance helps keeps your web site running.
