What Gets Done. Every Time.

Each cycle covers the full stack — not just plugin updates. Here is what happens every time we maintain a site.

01

Core & Plugin Updates

WordPress core, plugin, and security patch updates. Every update tested on staging before touching the live site.

02

Quality Assurance Testing

Page-level QA across key templates, forms, blog posts, and critical user flows. Scope scales with your plan.

03

Security Monitoring

Security scans, security plugin installation, and vulnerability monitoring. Daily scans on Essential and above. Monthly on Starter.

04

Daily Backups & Recovery

Automated daily backups of database and files. One-month file recovery window. Instant rollback if any update causes issues.

05

Maintenance Reporting

Detailed PDF report after every cycle — updates applied, QA results, issues found, and actions taken. Delivered to your agency.

Cart, checkout, payment, and shipping tests. CRM and API integration checks. Available on Growth and Premium plans.
