WordPress Care Plans

Protect Your Business Asset

Websites need regular TLC.

Let me take care of your virtual home with one of my monthly WordPress Care Plans and Maintenance Packages.

Having a beautiful new home is great, but all homes have up keep.

You walk in when you get a new house, and there is that new home smell.

Everything looks shiny and pristine; what happens after a couple of years? Things lose their shine; the paint needs another lick.

This is the same with your website although it won’t be a couple of years but more so a few weeks. The internet is constantly updating and it could make anyone confused and overwhelmed, leave the updates to me!

Websites are never static but think of them as moving parts that need constant oiling and cleaning in order to perform at their peak performance. I recommend maintenance and care plans with your lovely new website.

Your website needs love and care to work optimally.

You can either give it the love it needs or I have Website Care Plans where I do it for you.

WordPress Care Plans FAQs

No, you can self-host and manage your own site ongoing.

I recommend care plans as WordPress .org is constantly evolving and we will get your website in tip-top shape so you can focus on the reason you started your business.

If you do not have a care plan with me you will be responsible for your website, licenses and ongoing maintenance.

I have extensive experience in WordPress development, design, strategy, UX, and SEO, making me well-equipped to manage your website.

In order for me to assess the needs of your site, I require a website audit, which is priced at $200.

If your site is deemed suitable for my services and I agree to take it on, there will be an additional cost of $200 for migration to my server.

Yes, I am very experienced with self-hosted WordPress.Org, and it’s my preferred way to build a website for many reasons.

Yes, of course, I do work by the hour.

These additional hours are great for those:

If you are on a care plan additional hours are $100 AUD per hour.
If you are not on a care plan and your site breaks down or you would like some attention and minor tweaks done to your site in any way, the cost is AUD 150 per hour (minimum of 2 hours).

This a question people love to ask, but the answer they hate to hear. Digital Marketing requires consistent, ongoing work.

A search engine-optimised website will help you with Google rankings, but other marketing channels are required to get your business humming.

Digital marketing is still the number one way to get traffic flowing through your website’s revolving doors.

Paid Media and Ads, Social Media Marketing, Guest Blogs and SEO are the main ways businesses gain more website traffic.

No, at Lara P Digital I do not offer ads or marketing services. However, I can recommend a great marketing agency to handle this.
