Why do I need expert WordPress maintenance services

Many people think that once a website is finished, they can just leave it on the web and it’ll work smoothly forever. While this is true in a few cases, the majority of websites will have issues that need to be addressed. WordPress websites require ongoing maintenance services and support to ensure they run smoothly.

WP maintenance services description

WordPress maintenance refers to several tasks aimed at monitoring and improving the functionality of the site as well as security. The web needs constant maintenance and support to run smoothly and efficiently. This job can occur weekly, biweekly, or monthly.

WordPress maintenance services include various tasks such as updates, speed optimization, malware removal and so much more.

Maintenance service example

For example, a WordPress maintenance service may offer monthly software updates to keep your website up to date with the latest features and security patches. They may also offer ongoing security monitoring to detect and prevent any potential threats to your website. This may also involve:

  • optimizing images,
  • reducing the size of files,
  • and optimizing code to improve website performance.

What is included in a WordPress website care plan?

We take our maintenance services seriously, and we strive to offer a comprehensive support package that will ensure your website continues to run without any issues, security flaws, or obsolete plugins. Some tasks included in our website maintenance services are:

WordPress core updates

WordPress core updates

One key step in our WordPress maintenance services is updating the WordPress core. We run WordPress updates to ensure that the website is compatible with the latest browser version. That works on all operating systems. And that the latest security patches are implemented.

Plugin updates

WP plugin updates

We ensure the plugins run correctly and there aren’t any compatibility issues. Running plugin updates means your website always uses the latest technologies on the market. The use of the newest features will give you a competitive advantage.

Backups

Website backups

Regular backups are an essential part of any WordPress maintenance service. They ensure that your website data is safe and can be easily restored in the event of a disaster. Moreover, our developers always create backups before running any updates and maintenance on your site. This way if an update changes anything on your site, they can restore it so that it functions properly.

Adding new features

Adding new features

Another cool aspect of WordPress maintenance services includes adding new features to your site. You may ask us to implement some small new features during this process. But you may also gain new features due to plugin updates and even software core updates. Our QA testers will check out any new features added to ensure that everything is working perfectly, before giving your site back to you.

Website optimization

Optimize website speed & performance

A key element of WordPress maintenance services here at Acclaim is website 👉 speed optimization & performance optimization 👈. A fast loading site with great performance will improve the overall user experience. A fast site will rank higher in Google thus bringing you more potential customers. It will also reduce the bounce rate, meaning users will stay on your site longer.

Website security

Boost website security

Security scans are another crucial part of any WordPress maintenance service. Using security monitoring can help remove malware the moment it occurs thus reducing damage. Moreover, they help to identify and fix any security vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by cybercriminals.

PLANNING WORDPRESS TASKS & SUPPORT TICKETS

What about additional tasks during WordPress maintenance?

Scenario #1: Something on the website falls apart after maintenance

Picking a plan

First, you need to pick from one of our three maintenance plans. These maintenance plans form the foundation for your site maintenance and support. But if during these maintenance services, something goes wrong, for example, certain pages on your site crash. Or a contact form stops working etc. This is no longer included in the cost of the plan.

Additional charges

For things like this, we charge you separately and we give you an estimate of how many hours we need to fix this problem. Moreover every week we let you know many working hours were spent fixing your website. At this point, we will bill you for time and material. This is no longer part of our maintenance service rate.

Time & cost estimations

But it is important for you to know that if you do not want us to work on your website for more than X hours per month, we will not cross that limit. We are fully transparent in our time and cost estimations. We don’t want you as our customer to be surprised by the bill or the number of hours spent on your site.

Scenario #2: Additional website edits & custom development hours

Some of our customers let us know in advance how many additional hours they need for our developers to spend in addition to our standard maintenance services. So for example, they pick the silver plan plus 20 hours and we can give them a discount. During these extra hours, we can carry out various development services such as speed optimization, customizing a plugin, boosting site security, etc.

It’s important to note, however, that if you do not give us enough tasks to fill those previously agreed upon 20 hours, they do not transfer to the next month. You lose those hours & are charged for them.

It is a good idea to establish these hours ahead of time so that we logistically make time for your project. If you are to reach out to us that you have 60 hours worth of tasks that need to be done, yesterday. We may not be able to logistically make room for your project and those tasks.

If you are lucky we may be able to get some work done, but definitely not all of it. So planning ahead and establishing additional working time upfront is the best option.

Why WordPress Support is so important?

What’s the worst case scenario if I don’t have any support?

There are a lot of ways things can go south when you have a business website. The slightest thing can result in your clients losing their trust in you:

Website Error

Your website becoming inaccessible

If you avoid WordPress maintenance services your site will become inaccessible. This can be due to a faulty plugin, a content-heavy site, security breaches and so much more. There are various reasons & ways that your site may no longer be usable. You may find that instead of your website, you see the white screen of death.

This will lead to a loss of customers and a loss of business. Customers may not trust your website if they are unable to access it. Moreover, it may be flagged by Google, as being untrustworthy which will only further scare your customers. Not to mention you will drop in search engine rankings.

Security Issues

Data leaks and security flaws

This is every website owner’s worst nightmare come true. It’s when the data on your site leaks or someone hacks your site. You don’t want someone to leak your company data or worse your customer’s information.

When a data leak occurs or a security flaw, you can see thousands of passwords, emails, and other personal information leaked. This is really bad for your company’s reputation. Not to mention you run the risk of being sued, which means you will be buried in legal fees. This is why you need a professional team to manage the security of your website.

Expert WordPress support

Thirdly, you want to improve website speed and Google rankings as a result. Another scenario is you want your website to be secure and achieve a positive user experience. Lastly, you want a quick turnaround time for maintenance tasks. But above all, you should turn to WordPress maintenance services if you do not want to pay a pretty penny to have to rebuild your site from scratch.

Reliable professionals & support hours

What do I gain from a WordPress Support Agency?

You decide to look for an agency to help with WordPress maintenance tasks because freelance developers are not always reliable. Moreover, freelance WordPress developers may not have the ability to showcase their expertise. Additionally, some freelancers are not the best at communication which may make website edits difficult. Also, tasks may not be completed on time which can be frustrating. But certain errors if left too long can affect site loading speed optimization, performance, etc.

When you use a WordPress Support Agency you gain strong communicators with proven expertise. Moreover, developers work in a team which makes it easier for them to stick to their deadlines. You have a central point of contact with developers, QA testers, and project managers to answer any technical questions you may have.

Why you should use professional WordPress maintenance services?

You should hire WordPress experts to perform even basic maintenance tasks. Here are our four top reasons 👉 why you should hire professional WordPress experts to run maintenance 👈 services & support.

Initial investment

Don’t lose your investment

The initial development of your site was a hefty investment, you definitely do not want that money to go to waste. You don’t want to lose your website because it wasn’t being taken care of properly.

staging site

Staging site for maintenance services

All maintenance tasks are done on a staging site. This means that all updates & maintenance are performed, tested, fixed, and then moved to production. Developers have access to backups if anything changes or breaks during updates to restore your site. Plus your WP site doesn’t have much downtime as it continues to work while we run maintenance on a staging.

rebuilding website from zero

Less expensive than rebuilding your site

Investing in expert website maintenance is less expensive than rebuilding your site from zero. Even if you were to pay per month for an entire year, this is still a smaller cost than rebuilding a crashed site.

Access to developers

Access to WordPress developer

You have access to a developer who is tech-savvy and can fix any issues in the blink of an eye. Save yourself the headache by trying to run maintenance tasks by yourself. Also, if you are a business owner there are much more valuable uses of your time than trying to maintain your site.

WordPress & eCommerce support

WordPress maintenance & WooCommerce maintenance service go hand in hand

If you are considering WordPress maintenance services you should also consider WooCommerce support & maintenance. The two go hand in hand. In an ideal world, they should be maintained and updated together. This way everything on your website & online shop is running smoothly.

Some of the tasks that are performed for your WordPress maintenance services are similar to WooCommerce. But there are some nuances such as testing out checkout procedures. Not to mention speed optimization for an eCommerce store is crucial if you want to make more money.

4 Fourth

We set up a staging site along with a testing & local environment for your site

After we analyze the health of your site we set up some initial things that are crucial for maintenance and support services. We set up a staging site to run all tasks before we move them to production. Moreover, we set up a testing & local environment for your site.

5 Fifth

Our developer takes the time to get to know your site

During all this, our developers take the time to get to know the code that was written to build your site. They also get to know the structure of your site, how the files are organized, and where to find various aspects needed during the maintenance process.

What do you get with Acclaim’s WordPress maintenance & support?

There are three major advantages when choosing Acclaim’s WordPress maintenance and support services.

Ease of communication

We introduce our customers to Slack and Clickup to help with communication and task organization. On Slack, our customers can communicate with our developers, QA testers, and project managers about all things regarding their site. They can receive answers to important questions or provide our team with the knowledge that will help us better your site.

When it comes to ClickUp, you will be able to create various tasks that need to be taken care of during maintenance services. Moreover, you will be able to establish priority support for each task. So if you have a task that is a higher priority you can set up the task as urgent, whereas for other tasks you can set priority from none, low, normal, or high. This lets us know what needs to be done ASAP and what can wait a little bit.

WordPress developers working

Pricing transparency

So aside from picking a plan, you can also let us know how many additional hours you would like us to spend on your site each month. For additional time as we have mentioned above in 👉 Scenarios 1 & 2 👈, we bill time and material. But we are always upfront with our time estimations and we do not start work on something without the green light from you.

Plus you can always assign limits and we will not go over that limits. So if you want us to only work an additional 15 hours per month and that’s it. That’s fine we will hit that 15-hour mark and then come back the next month to keep working.

We communicate with you every step of the way, this way you are not surprised by the invoice at the end of the month.

How fast can professionals complete WordPress maintenance

How long does WordPress maintenance take?

So when we are first introduced to a project our developers need time to learn your project. This typically can take anywhere from 18 to 20 hours. They need to familiarise themselves with the code that has been written. Moreover, they need to understand the structure of your site. Also, during this time they may see what is going wrong and where which will help them when it times to repair your site.

Additionally, for any WordPress site that has not been maintained for months or even years, the initial support process will take a lot longer. The preliminary support can take several days. However, once we get over that initial hump, each next cyclical maintenance services take less time. Cyclical support can take a few hours, as opposed to several days.
