WordPress Website Maintenance Services for Your Mission

Websites are not “set and forget.” After the initial build is finished, there’s still plenty of ongoing work to be done, outside of search engine optimization and marketing campaigns. For the average business owner, it’s too much to keep up with – but ignoring it can have serious consequences for you and your customers.


At Orbit Local, our clients always have the option to handle their own website maintenance. But for those who want to spend their time on other value-added tasks, our WordPress maintenance support service packages take care of everything for a monthly fee.

Top-Rated Jacksonville Team of WordPress Experts Ready to Beam You Up

Your business is so much more than the platform your website is built on. Of course, no two businesses or websites are the same, and at Orbit Local, we understand that each client has unique needs. That’s why we offer multiple packages, so you can choose the one that meets your needs.
Our WordPress support service, Maintain Orbit, includes:

Fully Managed Hosting

Our fully managed WordPress hosting service handles everything you need for your website. There’s no need to worry about any of the details. We’ll manage your WordPress installation and maintenance, Google Analytics, Google Search Console, and more.

Traditional WordPress web hosting service providers don’t do much for you. You’ll be the one in charge of keeping your WordPress core files, themes, and plugins up to date. You’ll have to back up your files yourself. And if your website goes down, you may not even be alerted.
Our fully managed hosting puts your website in the hands of a team of WordPress experts.

Speed & Performance Optimization

Things not running the way you expect? Our speed optimization ensures your site is built with clean code and doesn’t use plugins that bloat your website unnecessarily.

Each page or post revision gets stored within your WordPress database, and over time, this can dramatically impact performance. If your site has been online for a while or is full of extra or outdated data, the clutter may slow things down.

We’ll also look for extra media files in your library and spam comments to remove any and all “junk” from your site. Our database speed optimization gets rid of the excess to ensure your site will load fast. If we find any bottlenecks, we’ll resolve them so your site performs at the best possible level.

Website Monitoring and Security Optimization

Our team monitors your website, so you don’t have to. We check to make sure your website is up and running – known as uptime monitoring. If it ever goes down, we’re alerted right away so we can take steps to fix it.

We routinely perform security scans to ensure that your website is free of spam, viruses, or other malware. This includes checking for unauthorized WordPress users that hackers may have created to access your site. If we discover anything, we’ll perform malware cleanup, so you can get back to business as usual.

Plugin, Theme & Core File Updates

The WordPress core files, along with themes and plugins, are regularly updated. Most of those updates include security patches, which are necessary to keep your site secure. Weekly updates also ensure you have access to the latest features and maintain compatibility.

All of our maintenance plans include regular WordPress core updates, theme updates, plugin updates (including premium plugins) so that your website is using the latest versions. This helps protect your WordPress site from hackers and malware.

We’ll also remove any unused themes and plugins since every theme and plugin installed on your site is extra potential insecurity or incompatibility.

Regular Website Backups

With our regular cloud backups, there’s no need to stress over something happening to your website. If there’s ever an issue, we can roll back to the most recent clean backup so that your website stays up and running.

Call Tracking

Call & Forms Trackin

When potential customers call your business or fill out forms to request more information, it can be hard to know exactly where they came from. Our call and form tracking system lets you see where your leads are coming from, so you can see what’s working and what’s not. When you know where your leads come from, you’re empowered with the knowledge to personalize your approach to increase the odds of converting them to paying customers.

Google Business Profile Optimization and Local Listing Management

With our Maintain Orbit service, you’ll get GMB optimization and local listing management for one location. This involves monitoring your GMB listing and continuously updating and maintaining your location data across websites, directories, and other customer-facing platforms.

We’ll go beyond the basic name, address, and phone number (NAP) data to include hours of operation, descriptions of products and services provided, and photos, to ensure your customers have access to a wealth of information about your business when they find you.

If your business has more than one location, let us know, and we’ll work with you on the best possible solution…

Common WordPress Website Maintenance Service Questions

As much as we’d love for it to be as simple as building a website, adding blog posts, and social media, the reality is a well-maintained website is critical to protecting your business.
 
WordPress is the most popular content management system out there, powering 40% of the websites online today. Even the White House uses it. As such, it is a common target for bots, hackers, and malware.  
 
To protect your website, WordPress regularly releases updates, sometimes releasing multiple updates every month. These updates improve platform security and performance. Your first line of defense is an up-to-date website because it significantly reduces vulnerability to attacks.
 
Plus, when you maintain your website, you’re promoting a good user experience. This is crucial for keeping your prospects, customers, and search engines happy. Sometimes as core updates are made, you’ll run into compatibility issues that cause features to break. Keeping an eye on your WordPress dashboard ensures you can fix these issues before they affect your user experience.
 
You’ve invested plenty of resources into your website, from the initial design and development to the content generation and everything else it takes to get up and running correctly. Why risk not being able to keep that way? Investing in a monthly plan with a WordPress maintenance company is far more affordable than paying for emergency support and malware removal. After all, if you need emergency support, chances are the issue has already begun to affect your user experience and SEO. Continuous monitoring with a maintenance plan stops the issues before your users even notice.
 
Your website hosting plan isn’t necessarily a WordPress maintenance plan. The hosts will handle server maintenance, but those are separate tasks from maintaining WordPress. If your website is down, or Chrome flags it as unsafe, it’s difficult to make sales. And if you’re so busy putting out website fires you can’t work on anything else, your business will suffer.
 
While it’s true that many WordPress hosts offer migration, daily backups, and uptime monitoring, they generally don’t include security monitoring or malware scans and cleanup, or management of your GMB profile and local listing. That’s why you need a partner like Orbit Local. 

At Orbit Local, we get to know our clients. We’re not just a digital marketing company, we’re a partner. We’re invested in helping your business reach its growth potential because when it does, ours does, too. 
 
We don’t charge our clients a retainer. We work to earn your business every month.

We understand that your business needs will evolve, so that’s why we allow you to change maintenance plans as needed, from one month to the next. If you’re launching a new product or service, so you need extra support next month but need to downgrade after the launch is successful, that’s okay with us.

There are plenty of WordPress maintenance services out there like WP Buffs and Maintain. While we believe there is a place for things like this, we don’t use anything like this when working on your site. We handle everything in-house, so you know your site is always in hands you can trust.

Yes, we also provide ecommerce support! We work with a number of clients who have ecommerce stores on WordPress. Whether it’s WooCommerce or another ecommerce platform, we’ll manage everything for you.

The Maintain Orbit plan covers one website. If you need us to help you manage more than one WordPress installation, let us know. We’ll be glad to develop a custom plan to meet your needs.

To ensure we have adequate time to provide all of our clients with stellar service, the monthly design and development hours must be used every month. You’re not required to use the full amount every month, but any remaining does not accrue or rollover.

If a task requires more time than what’s available, we’ll let you know and provide a quote for the work to be done. For smaller tasks, with your permission, we can continue to work on the project until it’s finished at our current consulting rate. You also have the option to save the task until next month.
