Website Maintenance & Hosting

Keep your website safe & running

Managed WordPress hosting and maintenance plans for small businesses — so your website stays fast, secure and up-to-date without you having to worry about it.

Website Maintenance & Hosting

Your website needs ongoing care — not just a one-off build

WordPress is the world’s most popular website platform — and that makes it a target. Without regular updates and security monitoring, vulnerabilities can be exploited, sites can be hacked and data can be compromised. A managed maintenance plan takes all of that off your plate.

My maintenance plans go beyond just keeping WordPress updated. I monitor your site around the clock, take daily backups, ensure everything is running at full speed, and handle minor content changes — so you can focus entirely on running your business.

Every plan includes

Why It Matters

The risks of an unmanaged website

Many small business owners don’t realise the risk they’re taking with an unmaintained WordPress site. Here’s what can go wrong.

Security Vulnerabilities

Outdated WordPress core, plugins or themes are the most common way sites get hacked. Once compromised, a site can be used to send spam or steal customer data.

✓  Hackers target outdated plugins

✓  Data breaches affect trust

✓  Recovery costs £500+

✓  Google may blacklist hacked sites

✓  Can take days to fix without backups

Lost Data

Without daily backups, a server failure, botched update or hack can mean losing your entire website — with no way to restore it.

✓  Hosting doesn’t guarantee backups

✓  One bad update can break a site

✓  No backup = starting from scratch

✓  Database corruption is irreversible

✓  Content & e-commerce data at risk

Slow Performance

Unmaintained sites slow down over time. Slow loading speeds hurt your Google rankings, increase bounce rates and cost you customers.

✓  Google uses speed as a ranking signal

✓  Users abandon slow sites within 3 seconds

✓  Plugins accumulate and conflict

✓  Unoptimised images build up

✓  Core Web Vitals scores drop
