WordPress Maintenance Packages

WordPress web design

Your website is your brand’s first impression.
We make sure it’s not the last.

As a business owner or marketing lead, you know your website needs more than a good design – it needs ongoing care. Without it, performance drops, security risks increase, and trust is lost.

Our WordPress care plans take that responsibility off your plate. We focus on security, uptime and stability, so your website stays reliable while you focus on growing your business.

Our WordPress care plans support all major builders and tools

Our WordPress Maintenance Plans cover

Bespoke website build

We keep your WordPress core, themes and plugins fully updated with the latest security patches and improvements, reducing the risk of conflicts, vulnerabilities and site errors.

Website security

Proactive Security Monitoring

Your site is continuously monitored for threats and suspicious activity, helping prevent hacks, malware and blacklisting before they cause damage.

Cloud backups

Website speed

Optimised WordPress Hosting

Pair your care plan with our high-performance WordPress hosting for faster load times, stronger security and maximum reliability.

Need ongoing WordPress development, not just maintenance?

Our WordPress maintenance plans are designed to keep your website secure, stable and running smoothly.

If your website is actively evolving with regular feature development, integrations or planned improvements, a WordPress maintenance plan won’t provide the level of support required. In these cases, a dedicated WordPress development retainer is the appropriate option for you.

Our development retainers start from £750 per month and are designed for businesses that need regular technical oversight, structured development work and careful release planning.

Lockertek website development support

Built on clarity, not complexity

All Maintenance Plans start with a simple three-month minimum period to ensure your site is fully set up and stabilised. After that, support continues on a rolling monthly basis.

Once the initial period is complete, you can cancel at any time with 30 days’ notice.

Annual billing is available in the pricing table above and offers the best overall value by locking in the lowest monthly rate. Please note that annual plans are non-refundable if cancelled early. We’ll always help you choose the most cost-effective option based on your requirements.

WordPress Maintenance FAQs

What is a WordPress maintenance package?

A WordPress maintenance package is a rolling monthly service that keeps your website secure, stable, and performing properly. It covers updates, backups, security and uptime monitoring and manual usability checks so your site remains reliable, as well as access to support time.

What if I need regular development work or ongoing changes?

Our WordPress maintenance plans are designed for security, updates, monitoring and small support tasks.

If your website requires regular development work, new features, integrations or planned improvements, a maintenance plan is not suitable. In these cases, our WordPress development retainers provide structured development time, technical oversight and release planning, starting from £750 per month.

What is the difference between the Essentials, Advantage, and VIP plans?

The plans differ mainly in the level of support, priority handling, and included monthly support time.

Essentials is designed for lower-dependency websites that need reliable protection and maintenance.
Advantage suits businesses that rely on their website and need regular support.
VIP is intended for business-critical websites where priority handling and faster escalation for urgent issues are essential.

If you’re unsure which plan is right for you, we’ll help you choose during onboarding.

Are WooCommerce websites supported?

Yes. Our Advantage and VIP plans are ideal for WooCommerce sites where security, speed, and uptime are business-critical. For WooCommerce sites that require regular changes, integrations or ongoing development work, a WooCommerce development retainer is often a better fit than a maintenance plan. Schedule a free call to discuss which may be the best fit for you.

Why does my WordPress website need ongoing maintenance?

Without regular maintenance, WordPress sites can become vulnerable to security risks, performance issues, and compatibility problems. Over time this can lead to downtime, lost enquiries, and damage to your brand.

What happens if my website breaks after an update?

We fully check the site before completing maintenance, but if anything somehow slips through the cracks, all updates are recorded by our tracking software, which can be rolled back at any time.

How do WordPress care plans support website security?

Our plans include proactive security monitoring with a 24/7 firewall, malware scanning, and vulnerability detection to reduce the risk of hacking, data loss, and blacklisting by search engines.

Do your WordPress maintenance plans help with SEO and performance?

Yes. Site speed, uptime, and technical stability are all SEO factors. Our top tier plans include Core Web Vitals optimisation and performance monitoring to support better rankings and user experience.

Can your maintenance plans be combined with hosting?

Yes. Our care plans can be paired with our optimised WordPress hosting to deliver maximum performance, security, and reliability. Contact us for a no obligation quotation on a combined package.

Who is responsible for my website if I don’t have a maintenance plan?

Without a care plan, responsibility for updates, security, backups, and fixing issues sits with the website owner, regardless of who hosts it. A maintenance plan transfers that technical risk to a specialist team.
