Website Hosting, Backups, Security & Maintenance

website security maintenance

We provide WordPress website hosting, security, and maintenance, as well as weekly, offsite backups. This will keep your website functional, safe, and secure.

All WordPress websites requires website security and maintenance. The website software must be kept up to date at all times. This includes the WordPress core, your theme (that controls the look of the site), and your plugins (additional software that adds functionality). This is a critical step in the fight against functionality errors (caused by software updates) and potential hacking.

Websites that are outdated and not regularly maintained will eventually break, or get hacked. It’s our job to ensure this doesn’t happen, or to fix it if it does. No one can guarantee your website will never be hacked, but we do our best to ensure it’s as protected as possible.

Why is keeping your software updated so important?

The WordPress core software, themes and plugins are regularly updated by their respective developers. You will need valid licenses (usually paid annually) for any paid software you use on your website. These licenses allow you access to the latest software updates available, as well as support from the developers themselves. As the developers update their software, they add new functionality or design elements, as well as fix security holes as they occur. It is vital that you have access to these updates so your website is as functional and secure as possible.

Website Security and Maintenance

Our plan includes:

  • Website hosting
  • Up to 5 POP email accounts*
  • Latest PHP version
  • SSL certificate
  • Weekly backups (8 backups are stored on an external Dropbox account, i.e. 2 months)
  • Software updates (including WordPress core, themes, and plugins; excluding site content)
  • Fixing incompatibilities or errors if software updates break your site
  • Comprehensive, layered WordPress security
  • 24/7 Intensive security monitoring (alerts are sent to our support staff)
  • Attack tracking (tracking whether your site is under attack, or has been hacked)
  • Mitigating all website attacks in real time

All websites hosted on our servers are required to utilise our website security and maintenance package. This is so our server security isn’t breached, which could expose your site (and the sites of all our clients) to potential hacking.

If you are hosted on a different server, we can still offer our website security and maintenance, as an independent service. If we are handling your website security and maintenance, you can be sure that your website is as safe and secure as possible.

*If you need more email accounts, we will discuss further otpions with you.
