WordPress management

While doing some research for a recent email to all customers about a severe WordPress bug, I came across a solution that allows me to manage the administration side of your WordPress site without having to log in to it.

The tasks I look after on your behalf include

• • Updating WordPress
  • Update plugins
  • Update themes  (on request. I am reluctant to update themes in case it over-writes your customisation)
  • Update PHP Version and optimise PHP environment settings when appropriate
  • Ensure https compliance
  • Monthly report to you
  • other things…

123host is pretty much all-inclusive.  I have always disliked the way some hosting businesses start with a cheap base price and then charge extra for every little thing.

However, subscribing to this service is quite expensive for me, and I pay based on the number of sites connected, so if you would like to have me manage the trickier part of your WordPress dashboard, the cost is $99.95 inc GST per year per site. We also offer a Premium WordPress management service that costs $199.95 inc GST per year per site. It includes everything in the Standard management service plus Patch Stack vulnerability mitigation.
