Website Care

Congratulations!

Your website has launched!  Now what?

WordPress is a tool and just like every other tool it needs to be taken care of so it can perform at its best.  Without taking care of your site on a regular basis, you run the risk of ending up with a slow, volnerable, and chaotic website that is hard to use for both visitors and admins.

The best way to keep your website functioning as it should, is to keep your WordPress core and plugins up to date and to regularly back-up your website… just in case.  These basic tasks are essential – but, doing them yourself is optional.

Leave it all to me!

I offer 2 Website Care Packages exclusively for my design clients.  The “Essential Package” covers the basics and the “Essential PLUS Package” covers those same basics PLUS uptime & security monitoring, a half hour of content updates, and a half hour of consulting each month.

Essential $19/month

Managed WordPress Core Updates

Managed Plugins & Theme Updates

Manual Offsite Backup

Unlimited Email Support

Essential PLUS $34/month

Everything in the Essential Package

Uptime & Security Monitoring

Content Management (1/2 hr)

Consulting via ZOOM (1/2 hr)

Need help deciding?

Let me ask you a few of questions… 

  • Do you break out in hives just thinking about doing technical tasks and doubt you’ll need to update your content often?

If you answered YES, then you would likely be just fine with my Essential Package ($19/mth) and then pay as you go for any content updates or consultations ($65/hr).

  • Do you have a blog and plan to regularly add posts each month?
  • Do you frequently offer new programs, products, services?
  • Are you brand new to creating offers like workshops or events and would benefit from regular brainstorming sessions?
  • Could you use moral support from someone familiar with your unique EFT practice?

If you answered YES, then you would want to sign-up for my Essential PLUS Package ($34/mth).

If you’re technically savvy and feel comfortable keeping everything updated and backed up, and feel confident that you can manage any content updates on your own, then you are a rock star and won’t need to sign-up for either plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Managed WordPress Core Updates?

According to Search Logistics’ website, about 810 MILLION websites use WordPress in 2024.  That’s more than a whopping 43%! That’s why WordPress is a popular target for hackers!

Up to the minute updates quickly patch vulnerabilities and strengthen your site against attacks.

What are Managed Plugins & Theme Updates

Sucuri has reported that 61% of hacked WordPress sites are running outdated software.

Outdated plugins and themes can wreak havoc behind the scenes.

Weekly plugin and theme updates help to maintain security, fix bugs, add features, and improve your site’s functionality.

What is Manual Website & Database Backup?
Websites can be damaged in several ways, including user error, hackers, and hosting issues.

Routine backups are a safety net to recover from such damage.

Backups are stored offsite in addition to any backups your web host may provide, ensuring that hosting problems don’t disrupt your backups and if anything happens to me, you still have access to your latest backups.

What does Unlimited Email Support mean?
I’ve been doing this work for 25 years- I’m not going anywhere! I’ve also learned a few things along the way.

Any time you have a problem or a question- shoot me an email. As you know, I respond pretty quickly.

If I don’t have the answer, I can usually find it!

What is Uptime & Security Monitoring?
Know when something breaks before your clients do!

When your website goes down, or a security vulnerability is found, time is of the essence!

Uptime monitoring (every 5 minutes), weekly scans for malware, and added security alerts in place, is proactive and gives you peace of mind.

What is Content Management?
Content requests can range from updating rates, adding a new service, entering new event details to even adding a new blog post or two.

Just email me what you need done, and if it will take me more than 1/2 hour, I will let you know before starting. – No surprises!

A lot can be accomplished in 1/2 hour!

What is Consulting via ZOOM?
Brainstorming, cheerleading, screensharing… Or just a quick check-in.

It’s always nice to just see each other’s face once in a while.

I’m all yours for any reason for 1/2 hour! You have access to my calander via my website anytime.
