What's included in website maintenance
WordPress and plugin updates
Core, theme and plugin updates, tested so nothing breaks. Most hacked sites are running something out of date.
Weekly backups
Off-site backups you can restore from quickly if something goes wrong.
Security monitoring
Firewall, malware scanning and login protection, checked every month.
Speed and health checks
Page speed, broken links, forms and uptime checked, with fixes made.
Content changes
Text, images and blog posts updated within 4 business hours on Hosting & Care.
Monthly report
A plain-English summary of what was updated, fixed and checked.
A website is never 'finished'
WordPress, themes and plugins release updates every few weeks, often to close security holes. Skip them and the site slowly breaks or gets hacked. Update them carelessly and something stops working.
Our website maintenance services handle both sides: updates applied and tested, backups ready if anything goes wrong, and someone who knows your site when you need a change. It’s the same care we give the sites we build, like Peachy Speech and Madeleine Simson Art.

Website maintenance questions
How much does website maintenance cost?
Care Only is $75 a month for sites hosted elsewhere, plus a one-off $195 health check. Hosting & Care is $125 a month and includes hosting and up to 10 simple changes.
Do you maintain sites you didn't build?
Yes. We start with a $195 health check to see what’s installed and what needs fixing, then take over the maintenance.
What counts as a simple change?
Updating text, swapping images, adding a blog post or a staff member, or small layout tweaks. Bigger jobs are quoted first.
What happens if my site breaks or gets hacked?
We restore it from backup and clean it up. On Hosting & Care that’s included.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Plans are month to month, and your site and backups stay yours.
