WordPress maintenance that keeps your website updated, secure and backed up
A monthly service for business owners who don't want to think about updates, security warnings or backups — your site is looked after, and you get a plain-language report on what was done.
Month after month — last month's report is right behind this one.
Who it's for
For owners who'd rather run the business than babysit the website
Monthly maintenance hands the routine — updates, backups, security checks — to a WordPress specialist, so the site quietly keeps doing its job.
You don't have to be technical, and you don't need to hire anyone. One specialist looks after the site; you read one short report a month.
- Your website brings in inquiries, bookings or sales — it can't be allowed to quietly break.
- Nobody on your team owns updates, backups and security — they happen “when someone remembers”.
- You postpone updates because you're worried the next one will take the site down.
- You want to know what was done each month — in plain language, not server logs.
The problems
What goes wrong when a site has no one looking after it
None of these mean your site was built badly. They're what happens to any WordPress site once updates, backups and monitoring have no owner.
Updates keep piling up
The longer core and plugins wait, the riskier the eventual jump — so it keeps getting postponed, and the backlog keeps growing.
One update breaks something
A single incompatible plugin update can quietly take down the contact form or booking form — and nobody notices until inquiries stop.
Backups that were never tested
A backup that has never been restored is a hope, not a plan — and the worst day to test it is the day you need it.
Known security holes stay open
Most WordPress break-ins come through outdated software with already-published fixes. Skipped updates are an open door.
Customers find the downtime first
Without monitoring, the site can be down all weekend — and you hear about it from a customer on Monday morning.
Every glitch lands on you
Something looks off, and suddenly you're googling error messages at midnight instead of running your business.
Every one of these is preventable. The next section shows what a steady monthly routine actually does about each of them.
The routine
What WP Mojster does about each of them
The same six problems, answered in the same order — this is what the monthly routine looks like, point by point.
Updates handled every week
Core, theme and plugin updates are applied on a fixed weekly schedule — no backlog ever builds up, no risky catch-up jumps.
The site is checked after every update
Key pages — the contact form, the inquiry and booking paths — are looked at after changes, so silent breakage is caught right away, not weeks later.
Daily backups that actually restore
Backups run every day and restoring them is part of the routine — recovery is a procedure, not a gamble.
Patched before it's a problem
Security updates are applied promptly and basic hardening keeps the known doors closed — the open-hole window stays short.
Downtime is caught by monitoring
Uptime is watched continuously. If the site goes down, the alert lands with the specialist and gets acted on — not discovered by your customers.
One person to hand every glitch to
Something looks off? Send it over. It's either handled as part of the plan, or scoped and priced honestly before any extra work.
And at the end of the month, all of it lands in one plain-language report — what was updated, what was fixed, and what to keep an eye on.
The scope
What's included every month
The standard monthly maintenance scope — and, just as important, what's agreed separately, so there are never surprise invoices.

Everything above — one plan.One report a month, one person responsible.

The outcome
What a maintained site gives you back
The spec sheet above is the work. This is what the work is for — the differences you actually feel after a few months of care.
The old routine
Updates happen when you remember themCustomers tell you what's brokenOne bad update means a lost weekendEvery new freelancer starts from zero
You stop carrying the site in your head
Updates, backups and monitoring run on a schedule — not on whether you remembered them this week. The site stops being one of your jobs.
Customers are the last to notice problems
Issues surface through monitoring and get handled from the specialist's side — instead of arriving as an angry email or a lost order.
A bad day stays a small one
If an update breaks something or the server misbehaves, there's a current, restore-tested backup to fall back on — an interruption, not a loss.
One person already knows your site
No re-explaining your setup to a new freelancer every time something comes up. The person fixing things is the person who maintains them.
FAQ
Questions about handing the site over
The things owners ask before starting monthly maintenance — answered the same way everything else here is: straight.
What actually happens in the first month?
The site is brought to a known-good state first — backups set up, pending updates applied, monitoring switched on. Your first report arrives at the end of the month and lists exactly what was done.
My site barely changes. Does it still need maintenance?
A quiet site still runs software that ages. Plugins, themes and WordPress itself keep publishing security fixes whether you post or not — maintenance keeps the site safe precisely when nobody's looking at it.
My site uses a page builder and a lot of plugins. Is that a problem?
No — it changes how carefully updates are tested, not whether the site can be cared for. The first review flags anything genuinely risky, and you hear about it in plain language before it's touched.
Something breaks between the scheduled updates — what then?
You email, it gets looked at — that's part of the plan, not an extra. Small fixes are included; anything bigger comes back to you as a scope and price first.
Am I locked into a contract?
No. Maintenance runs month to month. If it ever stops, the site, its backups and all access stay yours — nothing is held hostage.
Anything else? Just ask — you'll get a straight answer.
