Updates with checks
WordPress, theme and plugins on an agreed schedule, with key pages and forms checked after every change.
Service: Website maintenance Ongoing maintenance for WordPress websites: updates, security and backups.
Our website maintenance covers WordPress, theme and plugin updates, backups, monitoring and small content edits. We agree the scope and frequency based on how often your site changes and how much your business relies on it, and everything included is set out in a quote before work starts. We work with clients in Serbia and across Europe.
SWF / Maintenance
Without maintenance
What happens when nobody maintains a site.
Problems rarely appear overnight. They build up quietly until one day they show up as a slow site, a browser warning or a form that hasn't sent a message in weeks.
01
Outdated plugins and themes
Known vulnerabilities in outdated plugins and themes are a common way into WordPress sites. Updates close them, but only if they're applied regularly and the site is checked afterwards.
02
A site that slows down gradually
New plugins, larger images and data piling up in the database each slow the site a little. The difference usually gets noticed only once mobile visitors are already leaving.
03
A backup nobody has tested
A copy stored on the same server as the site, or one never restored in a test, can't be relied on. A backup proves its worth only on the day the site needs restoring.
04
Small edits left waiting
A new phone number, price or opening hours stay wrong for days because nobody has the time or the access. Visitors see outdated information and give up on getting in touch.
The point of maintenance isn't to make the site look different. It's to keep the speed, security and accurate content it had on launch day.
A steady rhythm
Small checks on time instead of big repairs later.
A site nobody maintains doesn't stop working overnight. Plugins go out of date, pages get slower, and a backup nobody has tested is no help when you need it. Regular updates and checks catch these changes while they're still small and easy to fix.

Which sites
WordPress maintenance starts from the state your site is in.
A company site that changes a few times a year and a site that publishes every week don't have the same needs. So we agree the scope and rhythm of maintenance around the site and the team that uses it.
Sites we built
Continuity after launch
For a site we built, maintenance starts without any time spent getting to know the code. We know the theme, structure and plugins, so every change starts from a known state.
What our website maintenance includes.
This is the typical scope. Exactly what goes into your plan, and how often, is agreed before we start and written into the quote.
How maintenance of your site begins.
Before regular work starts, the site needs to be in a known, stable state. So the first two phases happen once, and the other two repeat on the rhythm we agree.
Phase 01
Check
We review versions, theme, plugins, hosting, backups and the speed of key pages. You get a list of what's in order and what needs fixing.
Phase 02
Clean-up
We bring overdue updates up to date, remove unused plugins and set up backups and monitoring. After this phase the site is ready for a regular rhythm.
Phase 03
Regular maintenance
Updates, backups, monitoring and small edits on the agreed schedule. Every larger change goes ahead with a fresh backup of the site.
Phase 04
Periodic review
At agreed intervals we go through the work done and suggest what's worth changing: a plugin to replace, a slow page or outdated content.

Ask a question→What does website maintenance include?
Website maintenance covers regular WordPress, theme and plugin updates with a check after every change, backups of files and the database, uptime and security monitoring, periodic speed checks and small content edits. We agree the exact scope and frequency for each site, because a site that rarely changes needs less work than one that publishes every week. It's all set out in the quote before we start.
Do you maintain WordPress sites you didn't build?
Yes, after an initial check. We review the WordPress version, theme, plugins, hosting and existing backups, and only then propose a maintenance scope. If the check shows that the theme or a page builder is limiting the site, we'll say so plainly and explain whether it makes more sense to maintain what's there or move to a new theme.
Why can't updates simply run automatically?
Automatic updates help with minor security patches, but larger plugin or theme updates sometimes change how a site behaves. A form stops sending messages or a layout shifts, and nobody notices for days. That's why we check key pages and forms after updating, and take a fresh backup before every larger change so the site can be restored.
How often should a WordPress site be updated?
It depends on the site. Security patches should be applied soon after release, while larger plugin and theme updates are planned, with checks and a fresh backup. A site that rarely changes usually needs less frequent checks than one with forms, a shop and regular publishing. That's why we agree the maintenance rhythm around how the site is actually used.
How much does website maintenance cost?
The price depends on scope: the size of the site, the number of plugins, how often updates run and how many edits are included. After checking the site and a short call, we send a fixed quote, so you know in advance what you pay and what you get. Larger changes and new features are assessed separately, and nothing is charged without prior agreement.
When was your site last updated?
If you don't know the answer, or nobody knows where the latest backup is, it's time for a check. We'll look at the site and propose a maintenance scope that fits its size and publishing rhythm.
