WordPress maintenance that actually keeps watch.
A person who looks after your site and answers you, during working hours, when something fails. Not an automated system that sends you reports and nothing else.
01 · Why this matters
A WordPress site without maintenance is an accident waiting to happen.
Almost every unmaintained WordPress site I review has something: an abandoned plugin, outdated core, a form that stopped sending, malware nobody saw coming in.
The automatic backups your host offers usually live on the same server. If it goes down or gets hacked, so does the backup. A real backup lives outside your infrastructure.
Most maintenance contracts out there are a task list a script runs once a month. If something goes wrong, there's no one watching.
With me, someone is watching. That's the service.
02 · Plans
Three options. No lock-in. Fixed price.
If you're not sure which fits, write me and I'll tell you in 5 minutes. I won't sell you the most expensive.
Essential
For sites that can't be left to chance but don't need daily watch either.
- Monthly updates (core, plugins, themes)
- Weekly off-site backups
- I check after every update that everything still works
- External security review on signup
Professional
For business sites that depend on being online and performing.
- Everything in Essential
- Weekly updates
- Automatic alert if the site goes down or the SSL certificate fails
- Quarterly external security review
- Quarterly database optimization
- Quarterly PDF report (updates, performance, security)
Total
For sites that can't afford to go down: e-commerce, media, critical platforms.
- Everything in Professional
- Daily off-site backups
- Automatic alert if the site goes down, slows down or the SSL certificate fails
- Complete quarterly security audit
- Monthly malware scan
- Monthly PDF report + status portal
03 · My tool
I use my own plugin. I don't depend on third-party services that can go down or change their pricing every month.
Lock My Site is an open-source plugin I built to manage the sites I maintain. It lets me monitor, update and roll back via API without needing to log into your dashboard.
- Remote monitoring of status, updates and server health.
- Updates with automatic verification. If something fails, I roll back instantly.
- Everything via encrypted API. I don't ask for your WordPress user or password.
- Open-source published on WordPress.org. Can be reviewed line by line.
04 · Reports
Every quarter (or every month) you get a PDF with everything I did. No jargon, no padding.
The Professional and Total plans include periodic reports: what I updated, what backups ran, uptime, performance, incidents handled and next steps. If nothing weird happened that quarter, I'll say so — I'm not going to invent pages to justify the invoice.

05 · Questions people actually ask
What I get asked before signing.
Can I switch plans whenever I want?
Yes. Upgrade or downgrade as needed and the change applies to the next billing cycle.
Is there a commitment period?
None. Renews month to month. To cancel, just give 5 days notice.
What if something breaks?
If it breaks because of the maintenance (a plugin, theme or WordPress update that leaves something not working), I fix it at no extra cost: it's part of the plan. Anything unrelated to the maintenance, such as changes made by someone else, hosting outages or new features, is separate.
If you find a security hole, do you fix it?
If your site is on a maintenance plan with me and it gets hacked, I clean it up and restore it at no extra cost: it's part of the plan. If the hole was already there before we started, or fixing it means rewriting parts of the site, I explain what it is and how risky it is and send you a separate quote.
What about design changes or new features?
Quote separately. Many clients on maintenance also hire me for specific improvements, but they're separate.
Are backups in all plans?
Yes. Weekly in Essential and Professional, daily in Total. Always off-site.
What happens to my site if I cancel?
It keeps working. Before I leave I hand you a complete backup and everything up to date. Zero lock-in.
Do you maintain websites for agencies' clients?
Yes, white-label. I take care of the maintenance behind the scenes, invoice you and never talk to your client.
What happens if the site goes down?
A system checks every few minutes that your site responds and, if it goes down, I get an alert right away. I handle it during working hours.
Don't know which plan suits you?
Tell me what kind of site you have and I'll recommend the right plan. In 5 minutes and with no commitment.
