WordPress Maintenance: Keep Your Site Secure, Fast, and Worry-Free.

Like your phone, your website needs regular updates to maximize security and optimize performance. We handle every detail.

Proactive Security & Defense

Vulnerability Monitoring: We actively monitor industry security alerts and take immediate action if a vulnerability is identified in any of your installed plugins.

Application Hardening: We check and configure critical settings (like Wordfence or other security plugins) to ensure maximum defense against attacks.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): We can recommend and assist with rolling out 2FA to site administrators, eliminating the biggest security risk (password compromise).

e-commerce Sites: We focus on safeguarding checkout pages and payment gateways during updates, ensuring no transaction data is ever compromised.

Health Report & Speed Boosts

Initial Site Audit: We perform a full review of your installation, flagging dodgy or outdated plugins and themes that pose a risk.

Site Health Report Fixes: We check WordPress’s built-in Site Health report and action immediate wins like recommending and configuring caching and minification.

Junk Removal: We remove redundant or junk plugins and clean up unnecessary data to keep your database lean and fast.

Online Shopping Stores:  we pay special attention to WooCommerce and large product database optimization, ensuring your product pages load instantly.

Reliable Updates & Recovery

Quarterly Core & Plugin Updates: We test and apply all WordPress Core, theme, and plugin updates quarterly to maximize security and stability.

Cloud Backup Schedule: Your site and database are backed up nightly to secure, remote cloud storage, ensuring we can restore your site instantly from a safe copy.

SSL and Analytics Checks: We confirm your SSL certificate is active and your Analytics tracking is correctly configured, ensuring your data collection is reliable.

Dedicated Website Partner

We act as your technical representative, dealing directly with 3rd-parties on your behalf to diagnose and resolve server issues. You don’t have to translate complex server errors – we speak their language, so you don’t have to.

Expert Initial Audit

Deep, Manual Inspection: We don’t just run a scanner. We manually audit your installation for reputability, flagging dodgy or redundant plugins and themes that pose a security or performance risk – action is taken immediately.

Server Optimization

Performance Tune-Ups: Though not a full server plan, we occasionally jump into cPanel to upgrade PHP versions or compression settings when a simple, high-impact performance boost is available – we get the quick wins for you.

Vulnerability Interception

Immediate Action on Threats: We proactively monitor industry security feeds and take instant, surgical action when a vulnerability is found within one of your specific installed plugins, isolating the threat before it harms your site.

I didn't realise Wordpress could be so good! Our new site is much better than before. Thank you!

We have been extremely impressed with everything we’ve received from CJ. It’s on time, it’s on budget, it’s usually faultless AND he’s included extras we didn’t even think to request.

For attention to detail, technical knowledge, excellent service and execution of a website that is faithful to what you designed, you can’t go past CJ.

Your Maintenance Care Questions, Answered

What if my website breaks after you do the maintenance updates?

If your site breaks due to a standard core or plugin update we perform, we will fix it immediately and restore it from our nightly backups at no extra cost. This is part of the peace of mind guarantee.

Does this maintenance plan include server administration (like PHP or cPanel)?

This plan primarily focuses on your WordPress application (plugins, themes, security). While we do not manage your server regularly, we will perform quick-win PHP/compression checks for a performance boost. If your non-CJWEB hosting is sub-standard, we’ll recommend migrating to our Managed Hosting for a dedicated server solution.

Does the plan cover major Parent Theme updates or custom code changes?

No. Major Parent Theme updates, complex customisation, or large code changes are highly time-intensive and require dedicated development hours. These are quoted separately to ensure they are handled properly and do not interrupt your scheduled maintenance work.

How quickly can you restore my site if it is hacked or crashes?

Because we maintain automated nightly cloud backups and perform immediate backups before any major changes, we can typically restore your site to a clean state within minutes of identifying a critical issue.

Why do you need a consultation instead of just showing prices?

We only offer custom, boutique solutions, and every website has unique needs (traffic, custom code, security requirements, etc.). A quick consultation allows us to review your current site’s performance and scale to recommend the exact hosting architecture you need nothing more, nothing less. This ensures you get maximum value and performance, which a generic pricing page cannot guarantee.

Do I need to sign a long-term contract for the maintenance plan?

No. We want you to stay with us because you value the peace of mind we provide, not because of a locked-in contract. Our plans run on a month-to-month basis, allowing you to cancel at any time with appropriate notice. The service is billed annually to streamline administration and ensure continuous coverage, making it a predictable, long-term expense.

Why do you need a consultation instead of just showing fixed package prices?

We don’t believe in generic, one-size-fits-all plans. Pricing for effective WordPress care depends on key factors we must audit first:

  • eCommerce Complexity: If you run an online store (WooCommerce, etc.), the security requirements, database size, and testing rigor are exponentially higher.
  • Theme & Plugin Complexity: The number of installed plugins, the size of your database, and any custom code all impact the time required for safe maintenance.

Your free strategy session allows us to review your site health, identify specific risks, and recommend the exact level of coverage you need, ensuring your online revenue stream is protected.
