WordPress updates, security monitoring, daily backups, and speed optimization. We handle it so you don’t have to think about it.
Nobody calls to tell you your contact form stopped working. Google doesn’t send a notification when your site drops to a 40 on PageSpeed. And WordPress won’t warn you that the plugin you haven’t updated in eight months has a known security vulnerability.
Most Sarasota business owners find out something’s wrong with their site when a customer mentions it. Or when leads dry up. Or when their site shows a white screen on a Monday morning.
A maintenance plan catches problems before they become emergencies. Updates tested on staging, backups running daily, security scanned automatically. You get a monthly report showing what happened. Otherwise, you don’t hear from us.
This isn’t scare tactics. It’s math.
Every plugin, every theme, and WordPress itself gets regular security patches. When those updates don’t get installed, vulnerabilities pile up. A hacked WordPress site costs an average of $3,000-$5,000 to clean up and restore. A maintenance plan that would have prevented it costs less than $100 a month.
Speed degrades too. Database bloat, unoptimized images, outdated caching configurations. Your site gets a little slower every month you’re not paying attention. Your rankings slip and your bounce rate climbs, and by the time you realize there’s a problem, you’ve already lost traffic.
Phone number changed? New photo? Updated hours? Small edits are included. You don’t need to email us a support ticket for a five-minute fix.
Core, plugins, and themes updated monthly. We apply updates on a staging copy first, check for conflicts, then push to your live site. If an update breaks something, we catch it before your visitors do.
Daily malware scans, login protection, firewall management, and file change alerts. If your site gets compromised, we know immediately and start cleanup. On our Premium plan, full restoration is included.
Checked every 5 minutes, around the clock. If your site goes down, we get an alert and start working before your morning traffic hits. Quarterly Core Web Vitals audit, image optimization, database cleanup, and caching review. Sites slow down over time. We keep yours where it should be.
Automated and stored offsite. If anything goes wrong, we restore your site to any point in the last 30 days. We’ve used this for clients in Bradenton who accidentally deleted pages and for a Lakewood Ranch e-commerce store that had a plugin conflict take the whole site down.
We don’t host sites ourselves, but we manage yours. DNS, SSL renewals, PHP updates, server-side caching, and dealing with hosting support when there’s an issue. We recommend SiteGround or Cloudways for most Gulf Coast clients, but we’ll work with whatever you’re on.
Something breaks, you accidentally delete a page, a plugin conflict takes the site down. We restore it to any point in the last 30 days.
Less than what most Sarasota businesses spend on coffee. A hacked site cleanup runs $3,000+.
Your site is checked every 5 minutes. If it goes down at 2am, we know before your customers do.
We don’t use any heavy visual page builder. They add hundreds of kilobytes of JavaScript and CSS to every page, slow down the site, and create vendor lock-in. Our sites use clean HTML, CSS, and PHP. You can switch developers without rebuilding everything.
A typical WordPress site from another agency has 25-40 plugins installed. Ours have 8-15. Every plugin we install has a specific reason. Every plugin we skip has a reason too. Fewer plugins means fewer updates, fewer conflicts, fewer things that can break.
We use Advanced Custom Fields to give you a clean editing experience. Instead of dragging and dropping blocks in a visual editor (and accidentally breaking the layout), you fill in structured fields: headline, body text, image, call to action. The design stays consistent no matter who’s editing.
We don’t build the site first and optimize it later. Caching, image optimization, lazy loading, minimal JavaScript, proper font loading. It’s all part of the development process. A site that scores 90+ on PageSpeed at launch should still score 90+ a year later if it’s properly maintained.
We maintain sites for contractors, law firms, medical practices, restaurants, and e-commerce stores across Sarasota, Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, Clearwater, and St. Petersburg. Most run WordPress. All of them need their sites working every day without thinking about it.
About a third of our maintenance clients have sites we didn’t build. We take those on too. We run the health check first, fix what needs fixing, then bring it into our system.
If your site is on Shopify or Squarespace, reach out and we’ll tell you if we can help.
