Managed Services.
A WordPress platform does not stay where you left it. Managed Services is the ongoing technical work that keeps the whole platform hosted, secure, fast, and properly indexed, along with the domain and email infrastructure it depends on, without your team having to manage any of it.
When the platform runs part of the organisation, every one of those problems becomes an operational problem.
Plugins fall out of date and become attack vectors.
Core updates create conflicts that break functionality.
Performance degrades as the database grows.
Emails stop reaching the inbox.
Six managed services. Available individually or together.
Hosted, secure, fast, properly indexed, every email arriving, and the platform moving forward.
Managed Hosting
Managed cloud infrastructure set up, monitored and managed through our hosting partners Cloudways and Hostinger.
- Environment setup, staging and SSL
- Backups and uptime monitoring
- One accountable team for platform and hosting
Maintenance & Security
Scheduled, documented care for live WordPress platforms. If something breaks, we know before you do.
- Core, theme, and plugin updates tested in staging before production
- Daily offsite backups with tested restore capability
- Continuous security scanning and malware remediation
Performance, SEO & AI Search
We fix the engineering layer. We make the platform technically sound so your marketing team's work can perform.
- Core Web Vitals remediation at code and server level
- Crawl analysis, indexing issues, and structured data gaps
- Schema markup, redirect architecture, and Search Console triage
Domain & Email Infrastructure
The domain, the DNS, the authentication records, and the routing that makes every email actually arrive.
- Team inboxes on your domain
- SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured and verified
- Platform email routed through a dedicated sending service
Growth Retainer
Maintenance keeps the platform healthy. The Growth Retainer moves it forward each month.
- New features and workflows
- Integrations as the organisation develops
- Planned monthly with the team that knows the codebase
“What truly sets them apart is their commitment to support. Their technical responses are incredibly timely and accessible.”
No handoff to a support desk that has never seen the codebase.
The same team that built the platform stays on to maintain it. No re-explaining what was built and why. And as the organisation grows, the platform grows with it.
The platform keeps performing.
- Managed Hosting: the environment set up, monitored, and managed by the team that runs the platform
- Platform Maintenance & Security: updates, security monitoring, performance checks, and monthly reporting
- Performance, SEO & AI Search: if the platform needs stronger technical search performance
- Domain & Email Infrastructure: keeping platform and team email reaching the inbox
- Growth Retainer: new features, workflows, and integrations as the organisation develops
- Migrations: if the hosting, domain, or CMS needs to move
Frequently asked questions
Can I get just one managed service?
Yes. Managed hosting, maintenance and security, performance and technical SEO, domain and email infrastructure, and the Growth Retainer are all available on their own.
Do I need to be an existing WPFlat client?
No. We can manage any WordPress platform after an initial audit, not just ones we built. Domain and email infrastructure does not need a WPFlat platform at all.
Which should I start with?
If nobody is maintaining your platform, start with Platform Maintenance & Security. If the hosting is slow or unmanaged, start with Managed Hosting. If it is not showing up properly in search, start with Performance, SEO & AI Search. If enquiries and order emails are going missing, start with Domain & Email Infrastructure.
What is the difference between maintenance and the Growth Retainer?
Maintenance keeps the platform healthy. The Growth Retainer moves it forward with new features, workflows, and integrations each month.
Can I combine services?
Yes. Many clients take multiple managed services together.
One team for the whole life of your platform.
