Your website is a business asset, not a set-and-forget project. Left alone, WordPress sites drift out of date, plugins break, security holes open up and pages get slow. When something finally goes wrong, most owners don't know who to call. That's the gap a proper care plan closes.
Core Creations hosts your site on managed infrastructure and looks after it every month — core, theme and plugin updates, backups, uptime and security monitoring, and a real person to fix things when they break. One accountable Sydney team owns it end to end, so there's never a finger-pointing match between your host, your developer and your plugins.
What a WordPress care plan actually covers
A care plan is ongoing custody of your site, not a one-off tune-up. The point is that the day-to-day risks are handled before they become outages. Ours typically includes:
- Managed hosting with SSL and a CDN for speed
- WordPress core, theme and plugin updates, tested before they go live
- Scheduled off-site backups with fast restore
- Uptime, security and malware monitoring
- A monthly plain-English report on what we did
- A set allocation of support and small content edits
Bigger jobs — a new page, a redesign, a new feature — are quoted separately so your plan fee stays predictable.
Why updates and backups matter more than owners think
Most WordPress problems are preventable. An outdated plugin is the single most common way a small-business site gets hacked, and a site with no recent backup can lose days of work when a bad update or a failed server hits. The dangerous part is that none of this shows up until it's already a crisis.
Maintenance is cheap insurance against expensive downtime. Keeping software patched, watching for issues and holding a clean, recent backup means that when something does go wrong — and eventually it will — recovery is measured in minutes, not days.
What Core Creations delivers
We run your site on solid managed hosting, keep it current, and stand behind it when you need help. You get one point of contact who knows your site, not a ticket queue that treats you like a stranger every time. Reports are written so you can actually tell what happened to your website this month.
Here's what we won't do: we won't lock you into a long contract, we won't hold your site hostage, and we won't quietly let "maintenance" mean nothing. If you ever leave, your site and its data are yours to take. The plan earns its place each month or it shouldn't exist.
How we work
We start by reviewing your current site and hosting, then recommend the plan tier that fits its size and risk — a simple brochure site needs less than a busy WooCommerce store. You get a fixed monthly quote before anything starts, so there are no surprise line items.
Migrating an existing site to our hosting is usually straightforward and done with no downtime. From there it's hands-off for you: we handle the technical upkeep and flag anything that needs a decision. You focus on running the business.

How much does a website care plan cost?
It depends on the size and complexity of your site — a small brochure site costs less to maintain than a large store with checkout and integrations. Care plan pricing depends on your site's size and needs — build your quote or get in touch for a tailored plan.
Is there a lock-in contract?
No lock-in. Plans run month to month and you can cancel with reasonable notice. Your website, content and data belong to you, and we'll help you move them if you ever decide to leave.
Do I have to move my website to your hosting?
For a full care plan, yes — hosting and maintenance work best when one team controls the environment. Migration is usually quick and done with no downtime. If you'd rather stay on your current host, talk to us and we'll tell you honestly whether a maintenance-only arrangement makes sense.
What's included versus charged separately?
Your plan covers hosting, updates, backups, monitoring and a set allocation of support and small edits each month. Larger work — new pages, redesigns, new features or big content projects — is quoted separately so your monthly fee stays predictable.
Do you work with businesses outside Sydney?
Yes. We're based in Chatswood, Sydney, but hosting and maintenance are delivered remotely, so we look after clients across Australia. You get the same accountable team wherever you are.
What happens if my site goes down or gets hacked?
We monitor uptime and security, so we often catch issues before you do. If something breaks, we restore from a recent backup and get you back online quickly. Recovery from a clean backup is usually a matter of minutes, not days.
