All website maintenance and support plans can only be purchased while hosting with Smart Web Creative and are only for WordPress-based websites. You can view our web hosting packages here. Support and content updates include adding, changing, or removing images, changes and updates to content, adding, changing, or removing elements, adding, changing, or deleting web pages, modifying site navigation if needed, installing and setting up new plug-ins if needed, and fixing any errors that arise on the site within the Developer’s ability to do so. Malware removal is not guaranteed for heavily infected websites. However, we include daily backups with one-week retention on all hosting plans. Unused hours do not roll into the next month. Hourly rate discounts are applicable solely to services rendered for the business explicitly covered by the maintenance and support plan. In the case of multiple websites owned by the same customer under the same business entity, the discounts apply only once, regardless of the number of associated websites. Discounts do not accumulate for additional websites within the same ownership. The application of these discounts is non-transferable and cannot be extended to services provided for entities or businesses beyond the one explicitly covered by the maintenance and support plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
Having a website maintained and cared for is an investment on its own. Business owners want to have their website be up-to-date and taken care of in case anything ever happens. We understand that many people may have questions relating to what website maintenance and support is.
Website maintenance involves keeping a website up-to-date and running smoothly. This may include tasks such as removing spam comments, fixing broken pages or links, updating software, themes, and plugins, and much more. Think of it like taking your car to the mechanic for maintenance, although it is a lot more technical.
Website support includes adding, changing, or removing images, changes and updates to content, adding, changing, or removing elements, adding, changing, or deleting web pages, modifying site navigation if needed, installing and setting up new plug-ins if needed, and fixing any errors that arise on the site within the Developer’s ability to do so.
If you have a website and you always want to make sure that it is up and running with no errors, you will want to invest in getting website maintenance and support. We provide a variety of website maintenance and support packages to choose from. If you just need regular maintenance or for us to take care of a lot more, we got you covered.
All WordPress websites utilize plugins for numerous functions. As we update plugins, we also check to see the insights about each particular plugin. This includes a list of items we check for such as if it is frequently updated, compatible with the latest version of WordPress and PHP, if it makes an impact on memory usage and/or pagespeed, and much more. If for some reason we find that the plugin should be no longer used, we will do our best at finding a compatible one and let you know.
We have different packages that you can choose from for your website maintenance and support needs. Starting out for all packages, we include:
- Monthly Software, Theme, and Plugins Updates — We go through every month and ensure that all of these items are up-to-date without any errors on your site.
- WordPress Core Updates — With WordPress websites, there are core updates that enhance the security, code, and in general how WordPress functions. We ensure that at least once a month, your WordPress version is up-to-date and without affecting your site. We create a a local backup before we update WordPress as in some rare instances, it could potentially break your WordPress website.
- Malware & Spam Removal — Believe or not, but sometimes, even with all the security features that are added onto your site, malware and spam tend to find a way in. We take every precaution to ensure that your site does not get infected, but in rare cases it can happen. If your website has commenting enabled, chances are you will be receiving spam comments. We go through and remove these. Secondly, if there ever is malware on your site, we’ll do our best to remove it. We have fixed malware infected sites before and know the drill. However, if a website is heavily infected with malware, we move into our next phase which is restoring a backup.
- SSL Checks — With our web hosting packages, we offer FREE SSL certificates. These are assigned automatically to your site, and renew on their own. However, sometimes when they expire and auto-renew, they fail. We go in and re-submit the SSL renewal. On top of that, we also check to make sure that all of the links/pages throughout your site have a valid https:// in the URL.
