Quick answer (for buyers)
Fixed $89/week or $299/month. Backup-first updates, off-hours scheduling when possible, monitoring, small content changes, and a monthly report. No hourly billing. Fixed pricing—no hourly surprise invoices. See plan comparison on WordPress maintenance plans.
Who this is for
- WordPress site owners who want predictable upkeep (updates, backups, monitoring) without hiring a full-time admin.
- Teams okay with scoped content changes per plan limits—not unlimited custom development.
- Stores and brochure sites on WordPress where uptime and security hygiene matter more than daily feature sprints.
Who should skip (disqualifiers)
- You need unlimited custom dev, net-new plugin builds, or payment gateway certification work—use get a quote instead.
- Your stack is not WordPress (or you require 24/7 hands-on SRE)—this retainer targets typical WordPress hosting stacks.
- You will not provide hosting/dashboard access for maintenance windows—without access, work cannot ship.

Honest scope & risk
Maintenance reduces risk; it does not guarantee zero downtime (hosting outages, third-party APIs, or zero-day events still happen). Emergency response targets apply during business hours as listed on the product page. Custom payment work and major redesigns are out of scope unless quoted separately.
Named method: backup-first care cycle
- Snapshot backup before changes.
- Apply updates in low-traffic windows when possible.
- Smoke-test key pages/forms; send monthly PDF summary.
