WordPress Care

Looked after every day, not just when something breaks.

Websites fall apart quietly when nobody is looking after them. The software goes out of date, security holes open up, and the backup nobody checked turns out not to work. A care plan means we keep yours updated, backed up, and watched, and you get a short note each month telling you what happened. You never have to log in or learn anything.

Why a website needs looking after

What actually happens to a website nobody maintains.

WordPress sites depend on add-ons that change over time. These published figures explain why scheduled updates and tested recovery matter.

91%

of those holes were in add-ons, not WordPress itself. Only six were in WordPress core

Patchstack, 2026

Old problems are still the ones being used

Of the ten most-attacked WordPress weaknesses last year, only four were new. The rest were from 2023 and 2024, still being fired at sites that never got updated. Attackers are not looking for the newest hole. They are looking for the site that stopped paying attention.

A backup you have never restored is not a backup

The only reliable way to know a backup works is to restore it. Plus and Complete include restore testing on a schedule.

Hosting is only one layer

Hosting keeps the server available, but it does not replace maintenance of the themes and plugins that make up a WordPress site. Care covers both updates and recovery readiness.

What care covers

What every plan covers.

  • Every plan covers scheduled updates, backups stored away from the site, monitoring, and a monthly report
  • Plus and Complete include defined small changes and restore testing
  • Complete tests updates on a private copy before they reach the public site
  • Hosting can stay where it is. Any hosting or domain management is scoped separately

Pricing

Choose how closely
you want it watched.

Every plan starts with a Site Review. That way we know what we’re taking on, and you know what you’re paying for.

Discuss Complete Care
  • Prices shown are per month, per website.
  • Pay for a full year up front and take 10% off.
  • Care plans are priced at our lowest sustainable rate, so the 15% nonprofit discount applies to website builds rather than ongoing care.
  • Work outside what a plan covers is $105/hour. Without a care plan, support is $145/hour.
  • Urgent requests are quoted separately, based on availability and risk.

No stopwatch

Small changes are included. Here’s what that means.

Plus and Complete include small changes. We don’t count minutes. Instead we list the kinds of work that count, so you never have to wonder whether asking will cost you something.

Included on Plus and Complete

  • Changing words on any page
  • Swapping in photos you send us
  • Updating hours, contacts, staff, or board members
  • Posting news or a page you’ve written
  • Uploading minutes, agendas, or newsletters
  • Changing the menu
  • Adjusting settings on tools already on the site

Quoted before it starts

  • Designing a new page
  • Writing your words, taking photos, or design work
  • Building new features
  • Online stores and taking payments
  • Moving, rebuilding, or connecting the site to other systems

Small changes go out with your regular care rather than the same day, one at a time. Anything bigger gets priced first, so nothing is a surprise.

How it starts

Pick the level that matches how much your website matters to you.

Care starts after a Site Review, so the plan matches the site you actually have rather than a guess.
