Detailed Service Descriptions
Software Updates
Most WordPress core updates are now automatic. But that doesn’t mean there couldn’t be a problem. Sometimes manual intervention is required. And what about all of those plugins? The plugin updates need to be manually run. After every update, we manually review the site to be sure nothing broke. If it did, we fix it. If it cannot be fixed quickly, then we resort to our last backup to restore your site to working order.
Database and File Backups
We take a complete copy of your website files and the database. It is then stored offsite for your protection. If your site were to become infected, we could wipe everything and restore from a full backup. Or, if your hosting server crashed, we could set up a new account elsewhere and restore your entire site.
It’s easy to recover from a catastrophe when you’re prepared.
Hardened Security
We lock down numerous access points usually targeted by hackers. We change the log in URL and enforce strong passwords. This is your website’s brute force protection. By limiting the number of failed login attempts, the unauthorized person will get locked out after just a few failed tries. And to protect valid users such as you, we can whitelist your IP address to be sure you don’t get locked out accidentally.
For the higher end plans, we can switch to an enhanced DNS system that helps block certain types of hack attacks before they ever reach your website.
And just in case, we run a malware scan.
Uptime Monitoring
The Uptime Monitor checks your site every 5 minutes, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If it appears your website is not loading, the monitor makes few more checks in the next 3 minutes to make sure the site is down. If the site is still down, it will notify our staff immediately.
Database Maintenance
WordPress adds to or modifies the database of your site with pretty much every action. A lot of these entries to the database do not need to be kept for long. They just bloat your database and slow down your website. Google, other Search Engines and your users are obsessed with site speed, and it’s an important factor of their search ranking algorithms.
With our database maintenance, we keep your website’s database optimized by removing old, unused revisions, spam or trash comments, and many other entries. By performing these cleanup tasks, we keep your database as small as possible. Smaller database means it can operate faster. And a faster database means a faster website.
Monthly Report
Our monthly report is a great way to get an emailed snapshot of your website. We summarize all software updates, post and page edits, uptime stats, security stats, and summary Google Analytics information. This is just the email a busy business owner needs to stay abreast of their website details.
Priority Support
With our priority support, your tech support request gets high attention. We move you to the front of the queue, and we do everything we can to resolve your problem the same day. If you are submitting a content or change request, we still move you to the front of the queue. And if the request can be completed in 30 minutes or less, we’ll get it done same day.
Our priority support customers receive up to 30 minutes of free support every month. If you do not use the time in any month, the unused time does not carry forward to the next month. Any work performed to address your trouble ticket that exceeds your free 30 minutes will be billed at the normal rate for that type of task.
Broken Link Scan
We scan your site for any broken links. These could be a link from one page to another on the same site. It could be a broken link to a downloadable document that no longer exists, or even an image in a post or page that has been removed from the media gallery. Don’t disappoint your website visitors with links that don’t work or missing images. We’ll find the problems and alert you.
