Website Care

WordPress Maintenance and Support for Small Businesses

Updates, backups, security, and someone to call when something looks off. I keep your WordPress site healthy behind the scenes so you can stay focused on running your business.

Your website can look fine for months and go down in minutes.

An outdated plugin doesn’t slowly wear your site down. It sits there quietly until it’s the reason your contact form stops sending, your pages won’t load, or your site gets hacked.

Most small business owners don’t have time to log in every week, run updates, and hope nothing breaks. That’s not a character flaw. It’s just not your job. Website care is how the small stuff gets caught before it turns into an emergency.

Not Sure Which Kind of Care You Need?

Here’s a quick way to think about it:

If you’re happy with your host and just want your site looked after, start with an EmpowerTech Care Plan.

If you’d rather have hosting and maintenance handled together, Hassle-Free Hosting covers both.

If your site feels cluttered, slow, or glitchy and you’re not sure why, a Plugin Audit shows you what’s going on and what to do about it.

Still not sure? Book a call and tell me about your site. I’ll point you to the option that fits.

How Website Care Works

1

Choose your starting point.

Pick a care plan or hosting plan, or book a call if you want help deciding.

2

Take a quick survey.

A few questions help me make sure the plan fits your site. If it needs a plugin audit first, I’ll tell you why before we begin.

3

Get set up.

I get access to your site and set up updates, backups, and security monitoring.

4

Stay covered.

I handle the upkeep, send you a monthly report, and put things back if an update breaks something.

Website Care Questions, Answered

With an EmpowerTech Care Plan, your site stays with your current host and I handle the maintenance. With Hassle-Free Hosting, your site lives on my hosting and the maintenance is built in.

Not always. Newer sites, sites with only a few plugins, and sites that have been maintained regularly can usually start right away. The quick survey before signup tells me whether your site needs a cleanup first, and if it does, I’ll explain why.

EmpowerTech Care Plans start at $35/month. Hassle-Free Hosting starts at $50/month or $500/year. Plugin Audits start at $150.

Website care is ongoing maintenance, like updates, backups, and security, so problems are less likely to show up. Tech support is help when you need it. Many clients use both.

Yes. Care plans and hosting are open to any WordPress site, no matter who built it. The quick survey before signup helps me see what shape your site is in and whether it needs a plugin audit first.

I restore your site from a backup and check that everything is working again, at no extra cost on any care plan.

Not at all. Studio117 Creative is based in Raleigh, NC, and I care for WordPress sites for small businesses and nonprofits all over the US. Everything happens remotely, so location is never a problem.

No. Every care option is built for WordPress sites.

Need a New Website or Tech Help?

If your site needs more than maintenance, I can redesign it or help you set up the tools behind it. And if something just needs fixing today, tech support has you covered.
