WordPress Care Plan Details

Your website’s software (WordPress core, plugins, and themes) will be updated monthly to keep it secure and performing optimally. Keeping your site up to date also protects against a form of “versionitis” where a software element gets too far behind to update to the current version in one step. Testing of home page and other key functionality (in consultation with client) is performed after updates are completed (also known as regression testing). Rollback assurance ensures any update can be rolled back immediately if it breaks the site (rare but it can happen). Our sophisticated backup restore tool enables a quick rollback to the prior version. Also monthly with action as required: WordPress Site Health check, administration notice review and website email delivery testing.
