WordPress Monthly Website Maintenance Plans

Websites are like vehicles, they need ongoing tune-ups to perform reliably. A site that isn’t updated regularly may seem fine today but could face issues like broken features, slower speeds, or even hacking vulnerabilities in the near future. Maintenance ensures your site is not just functional, but optimized, secure, and future-ready.

We run proactive malware scans as part of your maintenance plan. If malware is detected, our team takes immediate action by working with your hosting provider to remove the infection and restore your site to normal functionality. In most cases, this process is fully covered under your plan. However, if the site is severely infected and requires advanced remediation outside the scope of our services, you may be responsible for any additional charges imposed by third-party vendors or your hosting provider. Our goal is always to resolve the issue quickly and transparently, while keeping your site safe and secure.

We update plugins, themes, and CMS core files as soon as stable versions are released as long as they do not disturb the website. Backups are performed monthly and securely stored. If an emergency occurs, such as an update conflict or security breach, we can restore your website quickly, minimizing downtime and data loss.

Yes! All of our active SEO clients automatically receive the Comprehensive Website Maintenance Plan for free. This ensures that the SEO work we do is always supported by a strong, well-maintained foundation. Your rankings and traffic can only succeed if your site is stable, secure, and functional.

The included 4 hours covers most small-to-medium changes, such as editing pages, adding content, or fixing minor issues. If you need larger updates like redesigning multiple pages, custom development, or adding major new features, we’ll provide a separate project estimate at a discounted client rate. This ensures flexibility while keeping your monthly plan cost-effective.

Yes, as part of our Website Maintenance Services, we check to ensure your site has a valid SSL certificate (HTTPS). If your website doesn’t already have one, we can help install and configure it properly. An SSL certificate encrypts the connection between your site and its visitors, protecting sensitive information like form submissions and payment details. It also builds trust by showing the secure padlock in browsers and is a direct ranking factor in Google’s search algorithm. Without SSL, many browsers now mark your site as “Not Secure,” which can scare off potential customers.

If your SSL certificate expires, your website will no longer display as secure, and visitors may see alarming “Not Secure” or “Connection Not Private” warnings in their browser. This can cause trust issues, lost leads, and even a drop in search rankings. As part of our maintenance plan, we monitor your SSL certificate status monthly to ensure it stays active. If it’s close to expiration, we’ll notify you and assist with renewal or reinstallation so your site remains secure and trusted at all times.
