Do I need to be available during maintenance?

No. Maintenance is handled on your behalf without requiring your time or attention. You receive a report of everything completed so you always know what was done, but you do not need to be involved in the process.

What if I need something that is not included in my package?

Packages cover the most common maintenance needs, but every site is different. If you need something beyond your plan, just reach out and I will put together a custom solution. Nothing gets added to your bill without a conversation first.

How do I know what was updated each month?

Monthly plans include a report of all updates completed during that period. You will always have a clear record of what was done and when.

WordPress Management Services

Your WordPress site needs regular care to stay fast, secure, and working the way it should. I handle that for you.

Tailored WordPress Solutions

One of the best things about WordPress is its flexibility — but that same flexibility means every installation is unique. Plugins, themes, custom code, hosting environments: no two sites are quite the same, and a one-size-fits-all maintenance plan rarely fits anyone well. I offer packages based on the most common needs, and if your site requires something more specific, just reach out and I'll put together a custom plan. I also offer services for small business websites. If you're still deciding whether WordPress is the right fit, see my full WordPress guide.

How troubleshooting works

I diagnose the problem, walk you through the options, and give you my honest recommendation. You decide how to proceed — no pressure, no upselling, just clear information so you can make the right call for your site.

“So complete, and so easy! My wife has lamented being unable to adjust anything herself (she doesn’t know HTML). Please be sure to include rates in your editing feature, and let me know when that is working.”

Frequently asked questions

All updates are tested in a staging environment before being applied to your live site. If an issue does arise, I catch it before it affects your visitors and resolve it before going live. That is why the staging step matters, and why I do not skip it.
