The Short Answer

What Is a WordPress Care Plan?

A WordPress care plan is a monthly service that keeps your website updated, backed up, secure, and working, with a real person to call when something goes wrong. Every Your WP Guy care plan includes daily checked updates, daily backups, uptime checks every minute, security monitoring, phone support, a monthly report, and fixes when an update breaks something. Plans start at $119 a month, for businesses anywhere in the US. There is no contract, and every plan comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Checked Updates

Core, theme, and plugin updates run daily, then get checked so nothing broke. High-risk plugins get extra update runs.

Daily Backups

Your site backed up every day, so a bad day never becomes a lost website.

Security Monitoring

Malware scanning, a firewall, and uptime checks every minute.

A Monthly Report

What we updated, what we caught, and anything that needs you.

Update Fixes

If an update breaks something, we fix it. On every plan.

Your website is your hardest-working employee. A care plan keeps it healthy and on the job.

Signs Your Website Needs a Care Plan

You Cannot Remember the Last Update

The dashboard shows a stack of updates waiting, and clicking them all at once feels like a gamble.

You Are Not Sure Backups Exist

There might be a backup somewhere. Nobody has checked whether it would actually restore.

Customers Tell You It Is Broken

The first sign of a problem is a customer saying the form, the menu, or the checkout does not work.

It Feels Like a Second Job

You started a business, not a website hobby. Every hour on plugins is an hour off your real work.

Care Plan vs. Maintenance Plan: Is There a Difference?

Mostly, no. Both names describe a monthly service that keeps a WordPress site updated, backed up, and secure. Companies use the words differently, so the name tells you less than the list of what is included.

When there is a difference, it is this: a basic maintenance plan runs the updates and the backups. A care plan adds a person who pays attention to your site, fixes what breaks, and answers when you call.

Our care plans are built that way. Updates are checked after they run. Backups run every day. If one of our updates breaks something, we fix it on every plan, not just the expensive one. And every month you get a report in plain English, so you know what happened without logging in.

So when you compare care plans, skip the name and read the list. Ask who checks the site after an update, what happens when something breaks, and who you talk to.

A Real Person Looks After Your Site

A care plan is only as good as the people behind it. With Your WP Guy, that is a small team led by Jonathan Wofford, who has worked with WordPress for more than 21 years and runs Your WP Guy, now looking after 105+ active client sites.

Jonathan is your contact. Most messages are answered by Jonathan himself, not a ticket queue, so you are not explaining your website to a new person every time.

Platinum and Titanium plans include advanced support time each month for the small requests that pile up:

  • Platinum: advanced troubleshooting and one hour of advanced support time a month
  • Titanium: three hours of advanced support time, eCommerce and checkout support, custom theme and plugin support, and a load-time guarantee under three seconds

Work outside your plan is billed at a discounted rate on every plan.

Running Your Site Alone vs. With a Care Plan

The software is the same either way. The difference is whether someone is paying attention.

On your own

Updates wait until you find the time, or run with nobody checking afterward

You learn about problems from customers

Backups are a maybe

Every fix starts with a search for help

With a Your WP Guy care plan

Updates applied and checked, every time

Problems caught before your customers see them

Daily backups, ready to restore

One person who already knows your site

What a Care Plan Does Not Cover

A good care plan is clear about where it stops. Ours looks after the site you have. It does not include:

  • A redesign or a brand-new website
  • Writing new pages or blog posts
  • SEO, ads, or marketing campaigns

Need one of those? Website design and marketing live at yourwpguy.com. Bigger requests for a site on a care plan are billed at a discounted rate.

Not ready for a monthly plan? A one-time WordPress fix is $199 and covers up to two hours of work. If your site has been hacked right now, Emergency Clean Up is a $249 flat rate.

You Always Know How Your Site Is Doing

Every care plan comes with two short reports each month, written in plain English.

Your Website Care Report shows what we did: updates applied, backups saved, security scans run, and anything that needs a decision from you. See what is in the monthly report

Your Opportunity Report shows a few ways your website could win more customers, like a page that is close to page one of Google or a page that gets visits but no calls. It is free with your plan, and you only pay for the work you choose. See a sample opportunity report

No wall of numbers, and no need to log in and check. You get back to running your business, and your website keeps doing its job.

Which WordPress Care Plan Fits Your Site?

Every plan covers the basics: a real person checks every update, fixes what an update breaks, and answers the phone. The difference is how much hands-on help your site needs each month.

What Clients Say

When I saw Jonathan's post about the new "ransomware" hack I immediately reached out to him and said, "hey, that ain't gonna happen to me, right? You got me covered?" To which he replied, "Of course it's not, I always have you covered." This kind of peace of mind for my businesses is invaluable.
