WEBSITE MAINTENANCE & SUPPORT — BALLARAT

Your Website, Secure
and Running Smoothly
Every Single Day

Website maintenance and support for small businesses across Ballarat and Central Victoria. WordPress updates, security monitoring, backups, and priority support — so your site stays fast, safe, and online.
THE CHALLENGE

An unmanaged WordPress site is
a security incident waiting to happen.

WordPress powers over 40% of the internet, which makes it the most targeted platform for automated hacking attacks. Outdated plugins, unmaintained themes, weak passwords, and missing security configurations are exploited by bots every day — often without the business owner ever knowing until the damage is done.

Beyond security, an unmaintained website slowly degrades. Plugin conflicts cause broken layouts. Speed decreases as software becomes outdated. Hosting environments change and sites stop working in unexpected ways. These issues rarely announce themselves — they're discovered when a customer tries to visit and can't.

BLUEY Creative's website care plans keep your WordPress site updated, secured, backed up, and monitored — so you can focus on running your business, not worrying about your website.
Your website works for your business 24 hours a day. It deserves the same attention.

WHY BLUEY CREATIVE

Maintenance done right
means you never notice it.

The goal of a good care plan is that you never think about your website. It's just always there, always fast, always secure — doing its job while you do yours.
Managed by the people who built your site
We already know your site inside out — which means faster diagnosis and less risk when updates are applied.
Monthly reports you can actually read
A monthly summary showing what was updated, what was backed up, and the current security and performance status of your site.
No lock-in — cancel anytime
Our care plans run month-to-month. We earn your ongoing business by doing good work, not by trapping you in a contract.
We had our site hacked once before. After that experience we signed up for the BLUEY Creative care plan and haven't had a single problem since. Knowing it's being looked after properly lets us focus on the business.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions about
website maintenance.

Do I need a care plan if my site rarely changes?

Yes — in fact, sites that rarely change are often at higher risk because updates are neglected. Maintenance is about keeping the software stack current and secure, not just adding new content. A static site still needs regular updates and monitoring.

What happens if my site gets hacked while on a care plan?

We handle the cleanup. Malware removal, security hardening, and restoration from a clean backup — all covered as part of the plan. Our goal is to resolve the issue as quickly as possible with minimal disruption.

Can I get a care plan for a site you didn't build?

Yes. We can onboard any WordPress site onto our care plan after an initial audit. We'll review the site's health, apply any critical updates needed, and then manage it ongoing from there.

How often are updates applied?

Minor plugin and theme updates are reviewed and applied weekly. Major WordPress core updates are applied after a short testing period to ensure stability. Security patches are applied immediately when they're released.

Are content updates included?

Minor content updates (text changes, image swaps, adding a page) are included up to a set hours-per-month limit depending on your plan. Larger development work is quoted separately.

What if I want to cancel my care plan?

You can cancel at any time with 30 days notice — no penalties, no lock-in. We'll provide all your backup files and access credentials so you can transfer management to another provider without any friction.
