Website Care and Maintenance Plans

 

Visual Validator Updates

We’ll perform all the WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates for your websites. We use a visual check process that checks for visual changes before and after plugin updates are applied to catch any visual discrepancies that might occur in the process. If visual changes are detected, our team is notified and we’ll be on the scene immediately to fix it! WordPress core updates are performed 10-14 days after release and themes are updated manually upon request.

Security Monitoring and Malware Clean-up

We make sure your website is always safe and secure with daily scans that detect malware, anti-viruses, and malicious code that can impact your site without you knowing it. When detected, our team is alerted and we clean it up!

Off-Site Backups

If the unthinkable happens and your site needs to be restored, we’ll take care of that for you — fast! Our secure, off-site backups ensure that your site will be up and running before anyone even notices it’s down.

Maintenance Dashboard Plugin

You get complete visibility on all the day-to-day maintenance tasks we perform to keep your sites up and running. This includes results from our visual check update process, a record of your backups, and full oversight on security monitoring. You can check it directly from your site’s admin panel.
