Our WordPress Maintenance Process

step 1 to WordPress website

Kick-off Meeting

After signing up for a WordPress maintenance service plan, you’re introduced to your project manager for a kick-off meeting. This helps us get to know your business and needs before taking you through your monthly maintenance process so you know exactly what to expect.

step 2 to WordPress website

Staging Setup

We create a replica of your live site on our server so our developers can make changes without affecting your live website. This staging site can also be used as a platform to see the progress, review and approve the changes. We never make changes on the live site without your permission.

step 3 to WordPress website

In-depth Audit

Our WordPress development team runs a full review using our 56-point audit checklist. We assess your website, themes, and plugins to identify optimisation opportunities, security issues, speed performance, plugin conflicts, PHP version, server logs, and everything in between.

step 4 to WordPress website

Plugin Cleanup

We'll remove any unnecessary plugins you're not using or may not be aware of, often left over from testing or setup by previous developers. This helps keep your site clean, healthy, and running smoothly. If your site uses any premium plugins, we’ll ask you to provide the licence keys so we can manage and keep them updated for you.

step 5 to WordPress website

WordPress Updates

We make sure your WordPress installation, theme, and plugins are always running the latest versions. This helps keep your site secure and running smoothly. All updates are first tested on a staging site to avoid any issues on your live website.

step 6 to WordPress website

Bug Fixes

Any bugs found by the QA team are sent back to the developer to fix and ensure there are no bugs when the staging site is sent over to you for review.

step 7 to WordPress website

Quality Assurance

Once updates are complete, our Quality Assurance engineers test everything across mobile, tablet, desktop, and different browsers to make sure all functionality works as expected. Any issues are passed back to the dev team to fix before anything goes live.

Step 8 of WordPress Maintenance and Support Process

Client Review

We ask you for a final review of the maintenance changes & updates before making final updates on your live site.

Step 9 of WordPress Maintenance and Support Process

Go Live

Once we receive your confirmation we will schedule a day and time for the updates to be pushed to the live site. (Recommended days are Monday to Thursday only.)

Step 10 of WordPress Maintenance and Support Process

Monthly Report

You'll receive a detailed report outlining all the work completed, including traffic insights, security checks, speed performance, Google Analytics, and SEO updates so we're on the same page and your site continues to thrive.

WordPress Maintenance FAQs

Can’t find what you’re looking for? Drop us a line and we’d be happy to answer any questions you have.

Website maintenance is the ongoing process of keeping your website secure, stable, and performing at its best. This involves regular website security checks, updating existing plugins and software, a routine website security scan for malware and vulnerabilities, backing up website files, and monitoring your website’s performance.

We schedule maintenance monthly and can work with you to lock in a time that suits both you and our team. Most of the work happens in the background, so your involvement is minimal.

We don’t touch the live site. Everything is done in a staging environment first. Once it’s ready, we push updates live during off-peak hours to make sure there’s no disruption.

Our WordPress maintenance packages run on a rolling monthly basis. Each plan includes ongoing support such as plugin updates, performance optimisation, security monitoring, and uptime tracking.

Each plan runs month to month with no lock-in contracts and with flexible pricing.

The website maintenance includes the following tasks, but is not limited to:

  • Website Security Scan and Malware Removal: Protect your site from threats and remove any detected malware.
  • Website Backup and Recovery: Ensure your data is safe and can be restored quickly in an emergency.

  • CMS Scanning and Vulnerability Detection: Regularly scan your content management system for potential vulnerabilities.

  • Firewall PCI Report and Compliance: Ensure your site meets necessary security standards and compliance requirements.

With our proactive website maintenance services, you can prevent security threats, enhance site speed, and ensure a seamless user experience for your visitors.

Regular website maintenance offers a multitude of benefits that are crucial for the health and success of your online presence. These include:

  • Protection Against Cyber Threats: Regular updates and security scans help safeguard your site from potential cyber-attacks and malware.
  • Improved Site Speed: Performance optimisation techniques, such as caching and image compression, ensure your website loads quickly and efficiently.
  • Enhanced Security: By identifying and addressing security issues promptly, you reduce the risk of vulnerabilities being exploited.
  • Regular Backups: Frequent backups of your website files and database ensure that you can quickly restore your site in case of data loss.
  • Vulnerability and Malware Removal: Routine scans help detect and eliminate vulnerabilities and malware, keeping your site secure.
  • Better SEO: An SEO-optimised website is more likely to rank higher in search engine results, improving your online visibility.
  • Enhanced User Experience: A fast, secure, and well-maintained website provides a better experience for your visitors, encouraging engagement and retention.

Yes, switching is simple. Our website maintenance packages are built for flexibility, so you can adjust your support level as your business needs change.

Your dedicated project manager will manage the transition quickly and seamlessly. No delays, no downtime, and no hassle. You stay supported with the right plan at the right time.

The WordPress Website Maintenance Plan includes:

Our WordPress Website Care Plan plan gives you dedicated development hours every month to maintain your website, make changes, and improvements, add new features, execute your marketing ideas and get help for your WordPress website services.

We work as an extension of your internal team.

You will also get a Project Manager, Quality Assurance Engineer, Front-end Developer and Back-end Developer so we can help you with all sorts of development needs.

And WordPress maintenance service plan is flexible. We can customise based on your needs, like 20 hours, 30 hours or as many hours you need per month. And there is no lock-in contract. It’s a month-to-month plan.

If you need a reliable development partner who can look after your website, performance, security and technical stuff on a regular basis and provide you with emergency WordPress maintenance and support services when you need it, it is suitable for you.

We are one of the most recommended WordPress maintenance agencies in Australia. We offer WordPress website maintenance services and support plans for your business websites, starting from $1,980 per month.

To give you an idea, we work on a monthly plan that provides you with custom development hours for website maintenance services, making improvements, adding new features, executing your ideas and everything else you need for your WordPress sites.

The plan can be customised based on your needs. For example, it could be 20 hours, 40 hours or as many hours as you need per month. With no lock-in contracts, you can work month-to-month. We also offer emergency support with WordPress maintenance services.

Please speak to one of our website experts to discuss Website maintenance costs.

No contracts, no catches, just quality WordPress maintenance plans. We simply ask for at least six months to fully show how we can help your business grow. Then work on a month-to-month basis and if you’re not happy at any time just give us 30 days’ notice, and we’re gone. That doesn’t happen very often though, so be prepared to have us quietly working away in the background for some time.

Your Website Care Plans are billed upfront in the month so that we can continue the monthly tasks. For one-off custom development work or new website builds the payment terms are 50% upfront payment and 50% once the website is completed and before going live.

For monthly plans, there is no lock-in contract. Simply give us 30 days notice to cancel the plan so we can plan out our team’s resources and complete the regular work we have planned.

Yes, you are not locked in. You simply need to give us a month’s notice to cancel your next payment. However, once you experience our high-quality WordPress maintenance service, we doubt you will want to leave!

If you are looking for WordPress maintenance services, please see more details here. You can also call us at 02 8278 7530 to discuss your needs or book a free consultation.

Please make sure you have your WordPress login and WordPress hosting credentials handy. Our team would like to do a quick audit of your website to recommend the best plan for you.
