Performing WordPress site maintenance ensures that your website is secure, bug-free, and performing at its very best for visitors. Core maintenance tasks include taking backups, running security and malware scans and keeping everything updated.
Neglecting website maintenance can lead to massive disruptions and unnecessary expenses.
Website maintenance costs vary from around £25 to £5,000 per month.
Website maintenance pricing depends on several factors, including your site’s size and your business’s industry and requirements.
On average, though, you can expect to pay an ongoing cost of around £50 per month.
For example, here at WPSmart WordPress maintenance packages start from £29.99 and include core maintenance tasks such as keeping WordPress up to date, keeping themes and all plugins up to date, monitoring uptime, taking backups and technical support should anything go wrong under our care.
Costs for websites that require more of a hands-on approach will double in price to £49.99, this package includes everything that the basic maintenance plan covers plus ongoing performance optimisation, configurations, security management and personalised support.
For demanding businesses the cost jumps to £89.99 per month and includes everything mentioned above plus content updates, code tweaks, custom development, unlimited tasks and DNS and CDN management.
Pricing is largely determined by requirements, as you can see. Regardless of how big or small your website is, all customers at WPSmart receive the same level of service.
We also offer custom packages, uniquely tailored to your website’s needs. Your website is one-of-a-kind. While a fixed WordPress maintenance plan might work for some, we know your needs are unique. That’s why we allow our clients to build their own support packages before they even become clients! Rather than settling for a one-size-fits-all approach, we’ll work with you upfront to create a truly customised maintenance plan that fits your specific website.
