Ongoing care & support
I look after the WordPress sites and automations I build once they're live, so they stay secure, up to date and working the way they should. I'll also plan a content calendar with you and publish your posts and pages, fully prepared for search engines, if you'd like help keeping your site current. Every plan is quoted around your site specifically, rather than sold off a shelf, and if something breaks, you're talking to the person who built your site, not a helpdesk.
What you get
Every plan I put together is based on what your site actually needs, not a fixed package. Here’s what that typically covers:
Updates & patching
WordPress core, themes and plugins kept current, tested before anything goes live rather than applied blind. Most sites that break do so because something was left out of date.
Backups & monitoring
Regular backups stored away from the site itself, plus uptime and security monitoring, so I know about a problem before you do.
Priority support time
A set amount of time each month set aside for small changes, fixes or content updates, with priority response if something breaks.
Content scheduling and publishing
I don’t write content for clients, but I’ll help you plan a content calendar, and upload and publish your posts and pages as part of your retainer if you’d rather not handle this yourself. Each piece goes live properly prepared, with images resized and optimised for fast loading, Yoast SEO titles and meta descriptions completed, and categories and featured images set.
Having someone outside your organisation keeping track of the calendar, and prompting you when content is due, helps keep new material appearing on your site at a steady pace.
If your content needs images, I also run a commercial photography service, C/D Photography, quoted separately from your retainer.
Bespoke, quoted plans
No two sites carry the same risk or workload, so no two plans cost the same. I quote each one around your site once I know what it needs.
Why this matters
Most of the sites I’m called in to rescue haven’t been touched in a year or more. By the time it’s noticeable — a broken layout, a hacked site, a plugin conflict taking the whole thing down — the fix costs more than a year of care would have. A retainer is cheaper than an emergency, and it means the person fixing it already knows your site.
Who this is for
If I built your site, or I’ve worked on it and know how it’s put together, a care plan keeps it in the state I handed it over in. If you’re coming to me cold with a site I haven’t touched before, I’ll usually start with a short audit so any plan I quote is based on what’s actually there, not guesswork.
How pricing works
Every retainer is quoted individually once I know what the site needs. There’s no set monthly fee published here, because a fair price depends on the work involved, not a flat rate that overcharges simple sites and undercharges complex ones.
