WordPress Maintenance: Keep Your Website Secure, Up-to-Date, and Fast

A premium package for websites that need to stay up and running: updates, backups, security, and performance—to keep your WordPress website secure, up-to-date, and fast.

The Risk

What Can Go Wrong Without Maintenance

Security Vulnerabilities & Hacks

Outdated plugins are the most common point of entry for hacked WordPress sites. Regular updates and monitoring close these vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.

No backup when it counts

A faulty update, a server crash—without an up-to-date, off-site backup, a minor problem can quickly turn into a total loss. I back up my data automatically and verify the backups.

No time, no overview

Updates, PHP versions, load times: In day-to-day operations, technical tasks often get put on the back burner. That’s exactly what the maintenance package takes care of for you—you’ll receive a brief report instead of a to-do list.

The Decision

Take care of it yourself or hand it over?

A WordPress website isn’t like a piece of furniture that you set up once and forget about—it requires ongoing updates, backups, and constant attention to security. The only question is, who will take care of that?

Task Perform Maintenance Yourself Premium Maintenance
Updates (Core, Plugins, Themes) I’ll handle the time investment and risk of errors I’ll take care of it—after backing up and verifying
Backups Manual, often forgotten daily, automatic, external
Security Hard to get an overview Monitoring & Hardening
Failure or Error You decide I’ll respond as soon as possible
Small Changes Your time Quota included

Let’s be fair: If your website is a small, non-critical project, you don’t need a maintenance package—in that case, I’d rather show you once how to maintain it yourself. The Premium package is worth it for sites where downtime would cost you money or damage your reputation.

The Investment

How much does WordPress maintenance cost?

The Premium Maintenance Package starts at €149 per month (net) and includes updates with reviews, automatic backups, security monitoring, performance checks, a fixed quota for minor changes, and priority support. The exact price depends on the size and requirements of your website.

Important: Maintenance is optional with me—there’s no mandatory subscription. Anyone who wants to can maintain the website themselves after receiving training. This package is intended for anyone who wants to consciously hand over the technical aspects. All prices at a glance: Web Design Costs.

Frequently Asked Questions About WordPress Maintenance

The Premium package starts at €149 per month (net) and scales based on the size and requirements of the website. It includes updates, backups, security monitoring, performance checks, and a quota for minor changes. I’ll provide the exact price after a brief assessment.

Not necessarily. You can maintain small, non-critical websites yourself after receiving some training. However, once your website starts generating revenue or serves as your flagship, regular maintenance protects against costly downtime—and that’s when the package is worth it.

No. My maintenance service is optional and can be canceled at any time—it’s not a restrictive contract. You decide whether and for how long you want to use the service.

I do not offer assistance with acute hacking emergencies or malware removal—there are specialized services for that. Maintenance comes first: Updates, hardening, and monitoring significantly reduce the risk. For general WordPress issues, my support page can help.

WordPress core, plugins, and themes—always after creating a backup and performing a visual check to ensure that no update damages the website. Critical security updates are applied promptly; the rest are bundled into the maintenance schedule.

The package includes a set amount of time for minor changes. I bill larger projects transparently at an hourly rate—as a maintenance customer, you’ll receive priority scheduling.
