Keep Your WordPress Site Running Without Having to Manage Every Technical Detail Yourself
Your website may be one of the most important systems in your business, but that does not mean you want to spend your time checking plugins, troubleshooting forms, running backups, tracking down errors, or figuring out why something that worked yesterday suddenly does not work today.
Kopf Consulting provides ongoing WordPress maintenance and one-time WordPress technical support for solopreneurs and small teams that want someone experienced handling the backend.
Whether you want someone keeping an eye on your website every month or simply need help with one specific WordPress problem, there is an option for that.
What Kind of WordPress Help Do You Need?
There are two very different reasons clients come to me for WordPress support.
I Want Someone to Maintain My Website
If your site is already running and you want someone handling the routine technical upkeep behind the scenes, WordPress Monthly Maintenance is the better fit.
I Need Help With a Specific WordPress Task or Problem
If something is broken, needs to be configured, migrated, connected, or changed, you probably need one-time technical support instead.
You do not have to sign up for monthly maintenance just because you need help with WordPress.
Ongoing WordPress Maintenance
For the Website You Want to Keep Running Without Constantly Checking It Yourself
WordPress sites need regular attention behind the scenes.
Plugins and themes change. Forms can stop working. Broken links appear. Security issues need to be monitored. Backups need to exist before you discover you needed one.
Our WordPress Monthly Maintenance service handles routine technical upkeep so you do not have to add another recurring task to your own list.
WordPress Monthly Maintenance Includes:
- Weekly plugin and theme updates
- Full website and database backups stored in the cloud
- Security strengthening and password checks
- Malware and brute-force monitoring
- Monthly deep malware scans
- Speed audits and optimization
- Image compression for improved load times
- Website health checks
- Broken link repair
- Contact-form verification
- Review of hidden error logs
- Comment and spam monitoring, when applicable
- Google Analytics connection checks
- Monthly maintenance reports
WordPress Maintenance: $49.99/month
Need Maintenance for More Than Your Website?
Your WordPress site may not be the only system that needs regular attention.
Kopf Consulting also offers ongoing maintenance for CRM and email marketing platforms, including options for businesses using systems with integrated payment processing.
If you need maintenance across more than one system, bundled options are available.
One-Time WordPress Technical Support
When You Need the Website Fixed, Changed, Connected, or Moved
Not every WordPress issue requires a monthly plan.
Sometimes you know exactly what you need.
Other times, you only know that something is not working the way it is supposed to.
One-time WordPress support may include projects such as:
- Troubleshooting WordPress errors or unexpected behavior
- Plugin installation or configuration
- Resolving plugin or theme conflicts
- Setting up or troubleshooting website forms
- Connecting forms to your CRM or email marketing platform
- Integrating supported third-party tools
- Google Analytics or tracking setup
- Website and domain-related technical changes
- DNS-related tasks connected to your website
- Security or backup plugin setup
- Website health and technical cleanup
- Landing page or template setup
- WordPress migrations
- Moving a WordPress site between hosting providers
- Troubleshooting existing integrations
- Other WordPress technical tasks that fall within Kopf Consulting’s scope
Custom one-time WordPress projects can generally be handled through Temp Tech, while certain common tasks – such as WordPress website migrations and security/backup plugin setup – may already be available as predefined Quick Gigs.
Temp Tech or Quick Gig?
Choose a Quick Gig when:
Your WordPress request matches one of the predefined services exactly.
Quick Gigs have an established scope and price, so there is no need to build a custom project around the request.
For example, WordPress Website Migration is currently available as a Quick Gig for businesses moving an existing WordPress website and database from one hosting provider to another.
Choose Temp Tech when:
Your WordPress request is specific to your website and needs to be reviewed before the scope can be determined.
Temp Tech is customizable, one-time technical support billed at $75 per hour and does not require an ongoing support commitment.
What About Website Updates and New Pages?
There is a difference between maintaining the website and building something new on it.
Routine WordPress Monthly Maintenance focuses on keeping the existing site healthy, secure, updated, and functioning as expected.
If you need something outside that routine maintenance – such as a new landing page, new functionality, an integration, a technical setup, or another website project – we can determine whether it fits Temp Tech, a Quick Gig, or another Kopf Consulting service.
You do not need to add monthly maintenance simply because you want a one-time change made to your website.
WordPress Support That Connects to the Rest of Your Business
Your website rarely operates completely by itself.
A form on WordPress may need to add someone to your email marketing platform.
A lead magnet may need to trigger an automation.
A checkout may need to connect to another system.
A scheduling tool may need to be embedded or integrated.
Analytics and tracking may need to be connected correctly.
That is one reason Kopf Consulting’s WordPress support is not limited to installing updates. I also work with the CRMs, email marketing platforms, automations, forms, funnels, and other business systems that may need to connect to your website.
What WordPress Support Does Not Mean
WordPress technical support is not the same as offering every service that can possibly involve a website.
For example, a project requiring advanced custom development, professional custom branding or illustration, or another highly specialized service outside my scope may require a specialist.
If that happens, I will let you know rather than attempting work I am not the right person to complete.
And if the project requires complementary expertise, I may be able to recommend someone from my professional network or, with your permission, bring in a vetted specialist for that portion of the project while remaining involved as the project liaison.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to purchase Monthly Maintenance to get WordPress help?
No.
If you have one WordPress problem or project, you can use Temp Tech or an applicable Quick Gig without enrolling in Monthly Maintenance.
Monthly Maintenance is for businesses that want the routine ongoing upkeep handled for them.
How much does WordPress Monthly Maintenance cost?
WordPress Monthly Maintenance is currently $49.99 per month.
What is included with WordPress Monthly Maintenance?
The plan includes routine plugin and theme updates, backups, security monitoring, malware scans, performance checks, image compression, health checks, broken-link repair, form verification, applicable spam monitoring, Google Analytics connection checks, and monthly reporting.
Does Monthly Maintenance include new pages or website redesigns?
No.
Monthly Maintenance is focused on the ongoing health and maintenance of your existing WordPress site.
New pages, landing pages, integrations, technical changes, or other project work would be reviewed separately to determine the appropriate service.
Can you fix something that another developer or provider set up?
Possibly.
You do not need to have originally built the website with Kopf Consulting.
Submit information about the problem and I can review whether it falls within my scope.
Keep in mind that troubleshooting an existing website sometimes uncovers additional issues that cannot be identified until I can see the current setup.
Can you move my WordPress site to another hosting company?
Yes.
WordPress Website Migration is currently available as a predefined Quick Gig for supported migrations between hosting providers.
Can you connect my WordPress forms to my email marketing platform or CRM?
Yes, when the platforms and requested connection are supported.
Depending on the setup, that may involve a native integration, Zapier, Integrately, or another supported integration method.
Can you help with WordPress security?
Yes, within the scope of the services offered.
Monthly Maintenance includes security-related monitoring and routine maintenance, and security or backup plugin setup is also available as a Quick Gig.
No website maintenance service can guarantee that a website will never experience a security issue, but ongoing monitoring, backups, updates, and appropriate security measures can form part of maintaining the site responsibly.
What if I am not sure whether I need Monthly Maintenance, Temp Tech, or a Quick Gig?
That is fine.
If you already know the task you need completed, look through the available Quick Gigs or submit a Temp Tech request.
If you are trying to determine whether your website needs ongoing maintenance, schedule a consultation and we can talk through the current setup.
