WordPress Care

Your hosting keeps the server running. Care keeps WordPress running.

Our hosting support looks after the server, the control panel, email and backups. It doesn't cover plugins, themes or changes to your pages, because that's work on your website itself. WordPress Care is that work, done for you every month by people who know our servers.

Updates without the worry

We update WordPress, your plugins and your theme after taking a backup, then check that the site still works.

Someone to call when it breaks

If an update breaks something, we put it right at no extra charge. You don't need to know what went wrong.

Time back for your business

No more logging in to check updates and backups. Each month we send you a report of what we did, and you get on with your work.

Business days and working hours are Monday to Friday, UK time, excluding UK public holidays. Every site already has MariHost Shield and daily backups from its hosting plan; Care adds daily backups kept away from our servers.

How it works

What happens each week

  1. 1

    Backup first

    Before anything changes, we take a fresh backup of your site.

  2. 2

    Updates

    WordPress, your plugins and your theme are updated. On Premium, we try them on a staging copy first.

  3. 3

    A check

    We check your site still works after the updates. On Premium, that includes a test order through your shop's checkout.

  4. 4

    Fixed if needed

    If something broke, we fix it or roll it back from the backup, at no extra charge.

Monitoring, all week

We watch your site's uptime, its SSL certificate and its domain's expiry date, and scan it for malware. If something's wrong, we're alerted and look into it.

Changes when you need them

On Plus and Premium, send us small changes: a new banner, an updated price, a fixed form, a new plugin set up. Tasks of up to 30 minutes each, from your monthly hours.

Not included

What Care doesn't cover

So there are no surprises, these are quoted separately:

  • Design projects, new pages or a new website
  • Custom code and new features
  • Sites hosted somewhere else (Care needs MariHost hosting)

On Essential, changes and malware clean-up are paid per task (see Extras).

FAQ

WordPress Care questions, answered

Do I need MariHost hosting?

Yes. Care works on sites hosted with MariHost, so we can back up, restore and fix them on our own servers. We move your site across for free.

Is Care per website or per account?

Per website. If you have three sites, each one needs its own Care plan, and they can be on different plans.

What's the difference between hosting support and Care?

Hosting support keeps the server, the control panel, email and backups working, and it's included with every hosting plan. Care is help with WordPress itself: updates, plugins, themes, errors and changes to your pages.

What happens if an update breaks my site?

We fix it, or restore it from the backup we took just before, at no extra charge, on every plan.

What counts as a small change?

A task we can finish in up to 30 minutes in your WordPress dashboard: updating text or images, adding a page from your existing design, setting up a plugin, fixing a form. Bigger jobs are quoted separately.

Do unused hours roll over?

No. Plus includes 1 hour and Premium 1.5 hours each month, and unused time doesn't carry over.

Can I change or cancel my plan?

Yes. Move to another Care plan, or cancel, from your client area. The change takes effect at the end of your current billing period.

I already have a WordPress Management plan. What changes?

Nothing, unless you want it to: you keep your plan and your price. If you'd like what's in WordPress Care, you can switch to it whenever you like.
