Your website, looked after properly every month

WordPress, your theme and your plugins release updates most weeks. Each one fixes something: a security hole, a slow page, a clash with the latest browser. A DotScott website care plan applies them safely, keeps your content fresh, and shows you what was done. You choose exactly what you need.

Rolled back if anything breaks
Daily off-site backups

Why updates can’t wait

Most WordPress sites that get hacked aren’t singled out. They’re found by automated scans hunting for a known weakness in an out-of-date plugin, and those scans run day and night.

Security

When a weakness in a plugin is made public, everyone learns about it at once, including the people looking to exploit it. The time between the fix being released and your site getting it is when you’re exposed.

Performance

Updates regularly make WordPress, themes and plugins lighter and quicker. Speed affects how long visitors stay, how many get in touch and how well your pages rank.

Compatibility

Leave updates for a few months and they start to depend on one another. Catching up becomes a bigger, riskier job than keeping pace a little at a time.

Every update runs after a fresh backup and is checked afterwards. If something breaks, we roll it back and sort out the cause before trying again.

A website that stands still slips back

Search engines and AI assistants favour sites that are current, accurate and clearly looked after. Visitors notice too. Last year’s prices, a team member who left, or a blog that stopped two years ago all quietly suggest a business that isn’t paying attention.

You don’t need to publish something new every week. Often the best return comes from improving what’s already there: tightening a service page, refreshing an out-of-date guide, or fixing page titles and descriptions so the right people find you.
