Out-of-date plugins and themes are a common way small business websites get hacked. We keep them current and test the site afterwards.
Daily backups with 15 days of recovery, so a bad update or a hack can be rolled back quickly.
We are alerted if your site goes down, often before you notice.
Care and Care Plus include change time each month for text, images, new pages and small fixes.
Hosting, domain and website questions go to one team that already knows your site.
React and Next.js websites use the same plans and prices. Instead of plugin updates, we keep the framework and its dependencies up to date. React sites have no built-in editor, so your plan's change time covers page and blog edits, or you can add a headless CMS for $499 + GST and make edits yourself. See WordPress or React.

You can. Hosting on its own gives you a server, but you still need to run updates, check backups, fix anything that breaks and set up email. Our plans include that work, so your site stays secure and someone is responsible when something goes wrong.
