Website Care Plans

Keep your website fast, secure, and cared for.

A website is not set-and-forget. Software updates land weekly, security threats keep moving, and backups only matter when they exist. A care plan protects your investment for a published monthly price, handled by the engineer who builds sites for a living.

01 / Why it matters

What every plan takes off your plate.

  • Protected

    Core, plugin, and theme updates applied on schedule, with security monitoring so problems are caught early instead of discovered by customers.

  • Backed up

    Regular backups of your site and its data, so a bad update, a hack, or a mistake is an inconvenience instead of a catastrophe.

  • Watched

    Uptime monitoring around the clock. If your site goes down, I know before you do, and usually before your customers notice.

  • Supported

    A real engineer answers your email within one business day. Small content edits are included, so quick changes just get done.

02 / The plans

Published prices. Pick what fits.

03 / Common questions

Straight answers.

Can I still edit my own website?

Yes. Every DevWharf build hands you the keys, and I walk you through the editing screens at handoff. The care plan covers the parts you should not have to think about: updates, security, backups, and monitoring.

Someone else built my site. Can you take it over?

Usually, yes, if it runs on WordPress or another standard stack. I audit it first, fix anything fragile, and then put it on a plan.

What counts as a small content edit?

Quick changes: updated text, a swapped photo, new hours, a new team member. Bigger work fits the Care Plan Plus improvement block or a development retainer.

Am I locked into a contract?

No. Plans are month to month. Your site, hosting, domain, and data are yours whether you stay on a plan or not.
