Why Every Business Needs WordPress Maintenance
Running a website can feel like juggling ten balls at once. There’s traffic to track, content to update, forms to fix and a hundred other details you’d prefer not to worry about. That’s where WordPress maintenance comes in.
As a creative agency, WebWorks Media understands the value of your time. Whether your site is brand new or a few years old, keeping it running smoothly is just as important as the day it went live. We offer flexible support options so you can continue doing what you do best without getting caught up in technical details that shouldn’t be your concern in the first place.
Website care plans are built to keep your WordPress site healthy, secure and up to date. Backups, updates, security scans, and more are all taken care of before they turn into problems. Think of it as an insurance plan for your website, but with real, useful features that work every day in the background.
Let’s walk through the three main plans offered, what they include and how they’re designed to fit different needs and budgets, with WordPress maintenance always at the core.
The Three Levels of Hands-on WordPress Maintenance
At WebWorks Media, every website we design includes an entry-level care plan as part of our Total Package. This means from day one, you’re getting the basics taken care of. However, for those who want to go beyond the basics, two additional plans are available: Complete Care and The Full Service.
Each level includes everything from the one before and then builds with more advanced features, giving you the choice to match the right plan with the level of support you expect.
Essential Care – Peace of Mind with the Basics
Essential Care is included with all Total Package website builds. It touches all the vital tasks your website needs to stay on the right path.
This includes things like:
- WordPress core, theme and plugin updates
- Daily security scans and regular backups
- Uptime tracking to make sure the site isn’t down
- Fast and secure hosting
- Priority support
It’s ideal for those who want the site to stay up and safe, but aren’t necessarily after deeper involvement. We handle the tech side of things, and you carry on with your business knowing someone is watching the essentials.
Complete Care – Extra Checks and Regular Maintenance
Complete Care is where protection steps up. In addition to the solid base provided by the Essential plan, this option checks performance, links, forms, and keeps your policies updated.
Everything from Essential Care is included, plus:
- Monthly form and link check-ups
- Privacy policy monitoring and updates
- Extra hands-on testing to spot minor issues early
This plan suits people who want extra reassurance. Whether your business is growing or you just don’t want to lift a finger when it comes to your site, this upkeep adds an extra layer to keep everything running smoothly every day.
The Full Service – Fully Managed WordPress Website Support
This level is built for the serious business owner. As the name suggests, The Full Service includes everything already covered, with two extra features designed to save you time and keep the site improving as your business does.
- 30 minutes of website updates handled for you every month
- A full annual review covering your content, brand, search rankings and clear ideas to help your site grow
With the Full Service, WordPress website support becomes a real extension of your business. If you need site updates or small changes, just send them in and we’ll handle them. You’ll also get yearly guidance to help your website keep pace with your goals.
It’s support without the stress, backed by a team that understands the platform inside and out.
How Ongoing WordPress Website Support Helps You Long-Term
Website problems often don’t show up with big warning signs. Instead, it’s a slow creep. A plugin stops working, forms don’t send, or the site starts loading slowly for visitors. Without daily checks and updates, these things go unnoticed, and then suddenly you’re losing leads or credibility without knowing why.
At WebWorks Media, our care plans are set up to stop those problems before they begin. WordPress maintenance isn’t glamorous, but it’s necessary. Our plans cover everything from security scans to performance tune-ups and monthly reports that show you exactly what’s happening behind the scenes.
You won’t be left in the dark about your website. All plans come with human support, not just auto-emails or chatbots.

How Clients Feel About Our Website Support
We’re proud that our clients feel looked after. One client recently said:
“The team has made it simple for us to focus on our business without panicking every time the website needs fixing. We get regular updates, rapid support and friendly chats whenever needed. It just works how it should.”
The relationship between you and your care team isn’t just about fixing problems. It’s about having a partner who understands how much your website matters.
Why WordPress Maintenance Is Worth It Every Month
WordPress maintenance might not seem exciting, but it has a big impact on your online success. Simple updates can block hacking attempts, daily backups can save you in an emergency, and regular reporting helps you understand how people are using your site.
All our plans at WebWorks Media ensure things stay current. Whether it’s renewing your SSL, checking for spam, cleaning up code, or making sure your contact forms don’t fail, you’re always in safe hands.
Our service isn’t locked into contracts either. Pick the level you need, stop when you want, and scale up or down if your business changes.
Still Got Questions?
How do I know which plan is right for me?
It depends on how much you want to be involved in the tech side of your website. If you’re happy leaving the core tasks to us and don’t make many changes, Essential Care could be perfect. For websites where performance matters more or you need edits monthly, then Complete or Full Service makes more sense.
Can I switch plans later?
Absolutely. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time. We’ll adjust the features and support straight away.
Do I need a care plan if I rarely update my website?
Yes. Even if you don’t add content weekly, your WordPress site still runs on software that needs regular updates and checks. A care plan protects it from breaking or becoming a risk.
What if my website wasn’t built by WebWorks Media?
You’re still welcome. Complete Care and Full Service plans are available for any WordPress site, even if it wasn’t built by us. We’ll run a quick health check first, then get started.
