WordPress Maintenance & Web Site Backup

I am sure if you have important files on your computer that you make sure to back them up.  Same goes if your computer software has an update available, you will probably download it so that you are getting the best performance possible.  The same thing goes with your web site on WordPress.

WordPress releases a number of software updates throughout the year, some are for security reasons and others are to introduce new features to the software.  They will alert you in the admin area that there is an update available and ask you to download and install it.  It is also recommended that you create a backup of your database prior to updating the software.  For some users that is not a problem and they are comfortable doing this themselves – for others they do not want to risk it because there is always a chance of something going wrong.

Instead of ignoring those updates because you don’t want to risk a problem to your site, we can help by making sure you site is updated and backed up at all times for one yearly cost.  Since introducing this service we have had a number of past clients sign up for the simple reason that they do not have to worry about any of these problems anymore.  We take care of everything and make sure everything is working correctly.

What is included?

• Weekly database backups on a secure server. If anything were to ever happen to your web site we can restore the database immediately.  Most web hosting companies do not provide this service.
• Full content backups every other week. If you have uploaded new photos we will make sure they get updated, you don’t have to worry about anything!
• Immediate updates to the WordPress software when it is released.  We are notified immediately when there is a software update available and will have your site updated and tested that day.
• All of your plugins will be updated and tested when released
