WordPress Maintenance Contract

  • WordPress Maintenance

    WordPress, the Genesis Framework, and the plugins we use to add extra features to the site go through regular, sometimes frequent, updates to the code. Some of these updates add more functionality or enhance the user interface; often these updates also contain patches for security vulnerabilities or unstable code. In the interest of keeping your site running and secure, we regularly check your site to make sure it is up to date. This happens at least once a week. We will handle this task in order to ensure the code that runs your site is up- to-date and secure. Critical security updates are handled immediately.

    In addition to ensuring the WordPress environment is kept up-to-date, we take several steps to maintain the integrity of your data. Best practices for WordPress continue to evolve with the platform; we keep abreast of these changes and implement them on all of our client sites as we determine them to be necessary and stable. We maintain daily backups for a period of 30 days. Manual backups are made before major code updates. Because we are accepting this responsibility, if your site is hacked or compromised in some way, we will restore your site to operability as soon as possible.

    Third-party Software Licenses

    In building your WordPress site, we make use of several third-party plugins to add capabilities to your site. For some of these plugins we pay annual fees - fees that may be passed along to you. You will be made aware of these fees in advance, and if you choose to move your site at a later date, we will advise you of the plugins for which you will need to continue to maintain on your own.

    Cost

    This WordPress Maintenance service costs $20/month and is billed annually ($240). Your maintenance term begins on the date listed below and will renew automatically on the same date annually unless we receive notice within 15 days of that renewal date. We’ll send you a renewal invoice 15 days before the end of your current term.

    Payment is due within 30 days of receipt.
 There will be a 2.5% interest charge per month on late invoices.
