WordPress Maintenance Plans
WordPress websites require ongoing updates and monitoring to remain secure and stable.
Daylan Design provides structured WordPress care plans to ensure your website continues to perform reliably after launch, from £100/month.
Why unmanaged WordPress sites cause problems
A care plan that actually covers your site
From £100 per month, including premium plugin licences. Here is what that looks like in practice.
Before the plan starts I go through your site: plugin stack, PHP version, backup setup, any existing issues. If there are problems that need sorting first, I will tell you.
Core, plugins and themes are updated on a tested schedule, not just clicked through. Premium plugin licences are included. Backups run offsite. Security is monitored.
You get a monthly report confirming what was done and anything worth flagging. Technical issues get resolved as they come up. Your site stays stable and up to date without you having to manage any of it.

Care plans start from £100 per month, depending on the level of support required. This covers both ongoing technical management and the licensing costs associated with essential premium plugins.
How WordPress Care Plans Work
An unmanaged WordPress site accumulates risk over time. Core updates, plugin updates and PHP version changes all interact. Without someone monitoring them, a single incompatible update can take a site offline or introduce a security vulnerability.
Structured management changes that. Updates are reviewed before they are applied, not just pushed automatically. Backups are scheduled and tested. Security events are monitored and acted on.
Premium plugin licences are included in the monthly cost. Popular plugins like Gravity Forms, WP Rocket and Advanced Custom Fields typically cost £100–£300 per year when purchased independently. Rolling them into a single arrangement removes a common hidden expense.
One developer. No handoffs, no ticket queue.
I manage over 12 WordPress sites directly: the updates, the backups, the fixes when something breaks. Not through an automated tool, and not delegated to anyone else.
Premium plugin licences are included in the plan cost through a shared licence network. Most clients are paying for these individually without realising a shared arrangement removes that expense entirely.
