Long-Term Retainer
for Maintenance & Support

A maintenance and support retainer covers the ongoing work a live WordPress site needs, core, theme, and plugin updates, security monitoring, backups, and small fixes as they come up.

It's built for businesses and agencies that need a reliable developer on call without the overhead of hiring in-house or waiting in an agency ticket queue.

Retainers can run alongside a freelance build I've already delivered, or start fresh on a site I haven't touched before | either way, the first step is a quick audit of where things stand.

Here's what 8+ years of keeping WordPress sites running adds up to:

• 8+ years keeping WordPress sites updated, secure, and running smoothly
• A methodical approach to updates and backups, so nothing breaks silently
• Direct access to me for anything urgent, not a ticket queue

A few things that stay consistent on every retainer:

• Regular check-ins on updates, backups, and anything that needs attention
• Fast response when something breaks or needs urgent attention
• A clear monthly summary of what was done, no guessing what you're paying for

A maintenance retainer tends to work well when:

• Your site is live and needs steady upkeep, not a one-off build
• You don't have in-house WordPress expertise and don't want to hire for it
• You want one developer who knows your site, not a rotating support queue
