Most small sites break the same quiet ways: an update nobody ran, a backup nobody took, an outage nobody noticed. Care handles all three for $99 a month and tells you what it did.
Start the care plan Cancel anytimeFour jobs, done on a schedule so you don't have to remember them.
Software, theme and plugin updates, done for you.
Regular backups, so a bad update or a hack can be undone.
If your site goes down, you hear about it.
A short written report each month of what was done.
What I actually do, what I need from you, and where the edges are.
Websites run on software that gets new versions all the time, and the old versions are what attackers go after. I apply the updates for your site's core software, theme and plugins or apps.
A backup is taken before updating, and I check the site afterward. If an update breaks something, the backup is how it gets undone.
A saved copy of your site, kept so that a bad update, a mistake or a hack can be reversed instead of rebuilt from scratch.
What can be backed up depends on the platform. A WordPress site can be copied in full. Hosted platforms such as Shopify, Wix and Squarespace limit what anyone can export, and I will tell you plainly what is and is not covered on yours.
Your site is checked from outside, the way a visitor would reach it. If it stops loading, you hear about it from me instead of from a customer.
Monitoring tells you it is down. When the cause is the hosting company, I tell you what I found and who needs to fix it. Rebuilding a site that has been destroyed is a separate job.
A short written note, by email, listing what was done that month: updates applied, backups kept, any downtime, and anything that needs a decision from you, with the reason in plain words. The example further down shows the format.
You stay the owner of the site, the domain and the hosting account. I work inside it, and you can take my access away at any time.
New pages, redesigns, or fixing problems that existed before the plan started. Those are quoted separately. The plan also does not promise more visitors or higher search rankings. It keeps what you have working.
Two real formats from the plan: the monthly report, and the alert if your site goes down. The business in them is made up.
Short walkthrough of the example monthly report.
Three steps, no contract.
Secure checkout by Stripe. You will get a receipt by email.
Cancel anytime by replying to your receipt email; your plan stops at the end of the month you have paid for. Needs a website you own on WordPress, Shopify, Wix or Squarespace; if I cannot support your site, I refund your first payment in full.
Not included: new pages, redesigns, or fixing problems that existed before the plan started. Those are quoted separately.
WordPress, Shopify, Wix and Squarespace sites that you own.
I need access to work on the site, either an admin login or an invitation as a user, depending on the platform. You remain the owner and can remove my access whenever you like.
