WORDPRESS HOSTING & MAINTENANCE (WHAM) PACKAGE
One stop shop for all of your domain-related services
If you have a WordPress website, you NEED a maintenance plan! And, you need a reliable Web host who offers 24-7 support.
Sites by Sara has been offering professional maintenance services for years to WordPress clients who wish to protect the integrity of their website’s security and performance. Imagine owning a jewelry store and not having a security system in place; or worse yet, no insurance. Sometimes, locks alone, just don’t cut it!
A maintenance plan is no longer a luxury, it’s become a necessity as bots are working overtime looking for security vulnerabilities and any excuse to wreak havoc.
The WHAM Plan is your security system as well as a premium insurance plan to protect your Web property. By bundling our all-in-one hosting solution with done-for-you WordPress maintenance we can guarantee your website will be in very good condition!
Complimentary webmail accounts included are for up to 250 MB of data storage per account. You will receive a notification when your account is approaching the limit and can then either take the necessary steps to download/backup any data from the mail server or you can elect to increase your storage size by another 250 MB for an increased fee of $10/mo/account.
WHAM clients get up to 3 email accounts, and WHAM Elevated get up to 5 accounts included. Additional email accounts are available for $10/mo.
As PHP upgrades take place on web servers, your current WordPress version becomes old and vulnerable to hacking. Hackers are specifically looking for sites that are running older versions of WordPress and PHP. Suddenly upgrading it to the latest level of everything after a site has not been maintained over the years is also risky, as there are more chances of breaking the site resulting in the need for a redevelopment altogether. And, unfortunately, rolling back to an old backup copy (if any) will likely be of no use as its code is also outdated. WordPress and web server updates impact the health of the database, hence the overall speed and performance of your website.
Our WordPress Hosting And Maintenance (WHAM) Services Include:
- Immediate reinstatement of your website to its most recent clean backup copy if it is hacked or otherwise becomes unstable.
- Daily backups of your website and database saved in two separate locations.
- WordPress version updates as soon as WordPress posts the updates.
- Plugin updates & security patches on a weekly basis.
- Theme updates on your site on a monthly basis.
- Child theme updates on a weekly basis or when the upgrade is available.

The Plus plan is only available as an add-on for maintenance clients enrolled at any level of the WHAM plan.

Any website that is very outdated or has paid plugins that do not have active licenses will not be eligible for immediate enrolment into our WHAM plan. To see if your website is eligible for a maintenance plan from Sites by Sara, please schedule a free 15-minute consultation. We will need to check the website code and will require temporary administrative access to do so. Thank you.
