While our managed hosting keeps your site secure and ensures any necessary security patches are applied, it’s easy to neglect ongoing feature updates, bug fixes, or changes based on new technology.
- Website updates must be applied and tested carefully to ensure everything performs as it should. Auto-updates risk breaking your site or leaving you open to untested vulnerabilities.
- We recommend an annual update to keep your site secure and reliable. We will also install critical plugin updates thought the year if required. We can perform more frequent updates if desired.
Our maintenance and update service is a fixed-cost, reliable process, so you can be sure we are taking care of things without any surprises.
The update includes
- Plugin update – Update WordPress and all site plugins to their latest versions in our local development environment.
- Testing – We test the site pages and backend along with contact forms and check the internal error logs to ensure everything works as expected.
- Staging and approval – We put the site on a staging server so you can thoroughly test all functions safely and approve putting the updated site live.
- Site Audit – We will do a lighthouse audit to check the site performance and accessibility and set to identify any areas that need improvement.
- Core plugins – $2,394 Value – The fixed monthly cost includes update costs for core plugins we use with our sites.
- Paid Plugins – Save 20% – We manage and give discounted updates on the paid plugins used on your site.
- Fixed Costs – We offer fixed costs based on the complexity of your site.
