Mandatory Monthly Maintenance
Your website is running software (like on your computer) and it needs to be monitored frequently for updates for security and new features. It is critical to updates the WordPress software and plugins in order to avoid security breaches and website hacks which target older versions of WordPress. Basic blogs can be maintained with Ninja’s Lifeline – Monthly Blog Support & Maintenances.
Premium websites are managed by the Social Media Works team. We run regular backups of your data and will advise on new features based on your company’s specific business goals. This is usually combined with our other design and content development services.
