WordPress Maintenance & Management Services

WordPress maintenance typically includes core, theme, and plugin updates, security monitoring, backups, performance checks, uptime monitoring, database maintenance, compatibility testing, and technical support. I can tailor ongoing maintenance to the specific needs of your website.

Critical security updates are prioritised as soon as they are required. Standard WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates are regularly tested on staging before being deployed to your live website, helping reduce the risk of compatibility problems and downtime.

I test updates on a staging copy before deploying them to production. If an unexpected problem occurs, I can restore from a recent backup, identify the compatibility issue, and apply a safe fix before returning the website to normal operation.
