WordPress Agency Maintenance Guide

Turn diagnostics, updates, reports, backups, client communication, and recurring checks into a repeatable maintenance workflow.

Problem

Maintenance becomes inconsistent when each site depends on memory, spreadsheets, or after-the-fact client reports.

For: Agencies and freelancers maintaining client WordPress sites.

Workflow

What to review

Create A Baseline

Record diagnostics, backup readiness, update risk, forms, checkout, search visibility, and security posture before ongoing work begins.

Package The Routine

Group recurring checks into weekly/monthly tasks with a clear client report and escalation path.

Estimate The Cost

Use site count, reporting time, update review time, and client communication effort to price maintenance realistically.
