Additional Website Care Plans

Additional plans available for private servers starting at $150 per month for hosting and maintenance. For any questions regarding any of our pricing plans, don't hesitate to contact us!

Can you host and maintain a site built by another developer or website agency? Probably. The website needs to be built using the WordPress platform. I can't assist with other platforms such as Wix, Shopify, Joomla, Webflow or other content management systems. If you are unsure what platform your website is built on, we can assist you in figuring that out.

WARNING: Maintenance and website content updates may be limited based on the plugins / tools (i.e. builders) that were used to build the WordPress site. We will be happy to take a look at the back-end and let you know what we should be able to do if you can provide administrative site login credentials. There will be a one-time set-up fee of $75 if we both agree that we can maintain the site for you as you may need.
