WordPress Support and

Maintenance

WordPress sites are incredibly versatile, but require regular support and maintenance by a skilled WordPress developer to function smoothly and keep the online face of your business properly updated. One of the greatest risks to not having a WordPress developer check in monthly on a WordPress site is the risk of a security breach.

Malware infections and compromised Wordpress sites on average cost over $2,500 to fix. Depending on the information compromised, companies can pay hundreds of thousands of dollars more in legal fees if they are found in violation of privacy and data protection laws.

Having a maintenance plan for a WordPress website is just like having a maintenance plan for your car – it makes sense and helps you build a long-term relationship with a dedicated development team, as you would with your local mechanic.

Q & A: Why is Rule Your Kingdom Now Offering WordPress Website Support and Maintenance Plans?

I thought my monthly SEO fee covered support and maintenance on my website?

When you pay for our SEO Services each month, you're paying for our team to work on improving how well your website shows up in Google search results. This involves things like getting desirable websites to link to your site, and making changes to your website's content based on how well it's doing in search results compared to your competitors. We also pay for the server that hosts your website so it stays online. However, SEO Services don't include actually building or maintaining your website - that's a separate job for website engineers. Just like cars need regular maintenance to keep running smoothly, websites also need upkeep to avoid things like broken links or hackers getting in.

Why would I need a support and maintenance plan for my website?

WordPress websites are built using third-party plugins and themes that are designed by independent developers. This means that you can create a website with all the features you need by piecing together different software components. This is cheaper than building a completely custom-coded website from scratch. However, if not maintained properly, updates and changes to the software can cause compatibility errors on your site, leaving it vulnerable to hackers and malware.

Just as your physical place of business needs maintenance in order to continue making you money, your business’ website requires regular maintenance to ensure your site stays secure and continues to function as it should. A skilled website engineer can perform maintenance on your site, evaluating all the plugins, themes, and software to ensure they are still suitable for your website. This is necessary because websites run 24/7 and interact with the internet daily, making them prone to errors and vulnerabilities.

Our team of skilled WordPress website engineers can provide maintenance for your website, saving you money in the long run. Instead of paying our normal hourly rate for our engineers to make fixes and changes to your site when it breaks, we now offer five levels of monthly support plans with discounted rates that will keep your site running smoothly, and provide peace of mind that your website is secure. Regular maintenance is a best practice for all websites, not just WordPress websites.

Why are you now suddenly charging me for support and maintenance issues on my website when you never have in the past?

We used to be a small company that didn't have a team dedicated to regularly checking and fixing problems on our clients' WordPress websites. We didn't want to charge our clients for this service because we thought we could handle it on an as-needed basis. But as we grew, we realized that we needed to have a dedicated team for website support and maintenance to prevent delays in building new sites for our clients. We learned from experienced staff that having a maintenance team is crucial to keeping our clients' sites running smoothly and securely. To cover the cost of this service, we created a structured program that offers five levels of WordPress support and maintenance.

Do I have to purchase one of your WordPress Website Support and Maintenance plans?

Of course not. You don't have to buy one of our WordPress Website Support and Maintenance plans if you don't want to. You can choose to ignore regular maintenance on your website and only tell us when you see an issue (or wait for us to tell you if our monitoring systems find a major problem).

However, we caution you that this might not be a good idea. It's like if you didn't take your car for regular maintenance and only took it to the mechanic when it broke down. Our monitoring systems can only detect severe issues, which can end up costing a lot to fix.

Our WordPress support and maintenance plans are designed to save you money in the long run. They provide a discounted hourly rate when things go wrong and prevent costly incidents from occurring in the first place - incidents that could potentially harm your business. Additionally, our plans offer extra features that you don't have access to right now.
