WordPress Care Plan

/services/wordpress-care-plan

Our WordPress Care Plan helps to keep your WordPress website up and running enabling you to focus on your business.

What is a WordPress Care Plan?

The WordPress eco system is constantly changing. With over 8,500 plugins and 60,000 themes, there are often new releases to fix bugs or release new functionality. Whilst the core / plugin / theme authors do their own testing, they cannot test against every plugin combination.

This is where our WordPress Care Plans come in. A WordPress Care Plan helps manage and maintain your WordPress website. This includes regular updates, backups, security checks, and technical support. The goal of our WordPress Care Plan is to provide peace of mind for you and ensure that your site stays up-to-date and secure.

Why is a WordPress Care Plan important?

  • Your WordPress website is more secure
  • Your WordPress website runs faster
  • Your WordPress website runs smoothly
  • Your WordPress website is backed up in case of emergency
  • Your WordPress website is Google friendly

What is included in your WordPress Care Plan?

Backups – We setup automatic daily offsite backups. These are stored on cloud storage, separate from your webhost. You may already have webhost backups but it is important to have a second backup stored elsewhere.

WordPress Core Updates – Any updates to WordPress Core are reviewed regularly and installed in a timely manner. Security fixes are prioritised and installed immediately. 

Plugin and Theme Updates – Similar to WordPress Core, plugins and themes are monitored for any updates. We will notify you of any changes to functionality that will modify your business processes.

Security – Proactive monitoring of any security issues.

Support – Up to 30 minutes support each month to resolve any issues.

What is not included in your WordPress Care Plan?

This is not a 24/7 support plan. All activities for the Care Plan will be performed during office hours.

What is the cost of a WordPress Care Plan?

The cost of our WordPress Care Plan is £75 a month. Minimum term 6 months.

There is a £150 audit charge before the Care Plan starts to review your website and setup any backups / security if required.

I had issues with my website and WordPress, and Lens Digital were amazing. They were helpful, efficient, quick and thoughtful ... making suggestions to improve things as we went along instead of just fulfilling their brief. I thoroughly recommend them and will definitely turn to them when I need help with my website next time.
