Proactive monthly WordPress maintenance plans — updates, backups, security scanning, uptime monitoring, and content changes — so your site stays secure, fast, and visible on Google.
No contract · Cancel anytime · You own the site · We reply within 1 business day
An unmaintained WordPress site is not just a support problem — it is a business risk. Outdated plugins are the most exploited attack vector in UK web security, and a hacked site can lose its Google rankings in 24 hours. Our monthly maintenance plans keep your site updated, backed up, monitored, and secure — so you can focus on your business while we keep the site running correctly.
These eight services are in every Cambria Digital maintenance plan — not optional extras, not add-ons.
Applied to a staging copy first, then pushed live. If an update breaks something, we catch it before your visitors do.
Full-site backups (files + database) stored off-server. Retained for 30 days. Restorable within hours if anything goes wrong.
5-minute interval checks from multiple locations. We know your site is down before you do.
Weekly malware and vulnerability scans using industry tooling. Active threats escalated and removed under Priority and Standard plans.
We monitor expiry dates and renew certificates before they lapse. An expired SSL triggers browser security warnings and kills organic traffic.
What was updated, what was backed up, uptime percentage, any security findings, and next-month recommendations.
A direct contact route if something goes wrong outside business hours. Not just an email to a ticketing system.
If malware is found during a scan, removal is included under all plans. No per-incident charges for issues we catch during scheduled maintenance.
Most website problems are preventable. A WordPress site left for 6 months without updates accumulates vulnerabilities, compatibility issues, and performance degradation that take days to untangle. We fix things before they break — and when something does go wrong, you have a direct line to the person who knows your site.
All plans are monthly rolling — no minimum term. Cancel with 30 days notice.

Website maintenance plans range from £79/month for basic WordPress update and backup services to £299/month for priority support with content updates, security guarantees, and quarterly audits. The main factors are response time commitments, whether content changes are included, and the level of security monitoring. Every Cambria Digital maintenance plan includes WP core and plugin updates, daily backups, uptime monitoring, SSL management, and a monthly report as standard.
An unmaintained WordPress site accumulates security vulnerabilities that attackers actively scan for and exploit. Outdated plugins are the most common entry point — the Wordfence Threat Intelligence team identifies thousands of new WordPress vulnerabilities each year, most of which are patched within days but only if you apply the updates. Beyond security, unmaintained plugins can break compatibility with each other or with newer PHP versions, causing white screens or broken checkout flows that cost you leads before you notice. Google also flags hacked sites in Search results, which can destroy rankings built over months in 24 hours.
Yes. We can take on maintenance for any WordPress website regardless of who built it. The onboarding process involves an initial audit to understand how the site is configured, what plugins are installed, whether there are any existing security issues, and what customisations exist that could be affected by updates. This audit is included in the first month's plan. Some sites that were built on unusual configurations or heavily modified themes require a one-time setup fee to make them safely maintainable — we will flag this during the audit if it applies.
On our Standard plan we monitor uptime every 5 minutes and respond to alerts within 8 business hours. On Priority, the response is within 4 hours including outside standard working hours for critical outages (site completely down, checkout broken, contact forms not sending). Basic plan includes monitoring with next business day response. All plans include an emergency contact route — you are never left waiting until we notice an automated alert if you know something is wrong.
All our maintenance plans are monthly rolling contracts with no minimum term. You can cancel at any time with 30 days notice. We will provide a full handover document covering everything we manage — hosting credentials, SSL renewal dates, backup locations, plugin update schedule — so you can either take over management yourself or transfer to another provider without disruption.
Website maintenance works best alongside the right hosting, design, and SEO foundations.
