Does it matter what hosting i use?
We can provide a WordPress care plan to anyone regardless of their hosting provider. We understand that everyone has their own specific needs and budgets. If you would like to upgrade your hosting however then our plans do come with hosting included. The benefit in hosting with us is that we have better control of your site when it comes to updates and fixes along with better performance and free SSL certificates.
How long will my WordPress care plan take to implement?
After you sign up, we generally have website care plans up and running within 24-48 hours (usualy within a couple of hours if you already have hosting). With all the features of the care plan from regular cloud backups to security monitoring monthly client reports and more. We will guide you through the process and keep in touch, so you know what is happening.
Do you manage WooCommerce websites?
Yes, we do, however, websites with advanced functionality like Woocommerce will require our premium WordPress care plan. It requires more resources to run smoothly and be kept secure and backed up properly. As a result, we need to ensure we dedicate the right resources to your site via the right WordPress website care plan.
Am i locked into a contract?
No. We do not lock you into any contract or hold your to ransom over your website as other services do. You can cancel at any time and have full control of your plan. You can upgrade, downgrade or cancel when you choose.

Our general support hours are 9 am – 5 pm GMT Mon -Fri. We do, however, answer support requests outside of these hours and will do our best to respond within 2 hours if not the same day. In an emergency outside of these hours like a site outage, you can contact us directly for support.

WordPress Core Updates Including Plugins & Themes
Peace of mind that your website software is always up to date. We will continuously monitor, manage and deploy WordPress software updates, the plugins and themes.
Updates to these are submitted regularly by the developers to improve performance, fix bugs or security issues. These things must be managed and updated periodically to ensure your WordPress website is secure and running smoothly.
We not only keep you updated, but we manage the compatibility of updates and the drama that can, at times, unfold when an update breaks something else. We will test and manage this for you and can instantly restore your site from a backup if the worst does happen. Let us take care of all the WordPress core plugin updates while you get on with your job.
Daily Or Real Time Cloud Backup of Database & Site Files
We take cloud backups of your websites database, content, pages and structure daily. The backups are sent to a separate server for security and reliability, allowing us to have one-click restore in the event anything does happen like a hacked site.
Real-Time backups Our real-time backups are very smart and efficient! We take a daily backup but then record any changes to your site throughout that day. If for some reason your website is hacked or has a technical issue, then we have all the most recent details and changes to your site and can restore your site with the absolute minimum of loss if not 0 loss to data or orders.
In addition to our daily cloud backups, we also hold a 365-day backup archive. This is especially useful if you have made several changes on your site over time but then want to restore an old version of your website.
With our 365 day archives, we can restore your site to its previous state on any given day within those 365 days.

WordPress Hosting that won't leave you in the dark.
You may already have a host you are happy with, and that's not a problem. We can still provide you with our maintenance services. If however, you wish for us to host your site you will be pleasantly surprised. ThriveWP likes to take a different approach; we won't dump you on an oversubscribed server. We also don't expect you to deal with all the technical hosting stuff. ThriveWP's website care plans will never give you server space alone. Our hosting is fully managed; this means we will deal with the technical aspects of both your website and hosting while you focus on your business. From small tasks to design services and eCommerce websites, we cover it all. Free hosting is available on our business and premium plans.
We will do some work on the backend of your website to improve the loading speed of your site. Some of these optimisations involve installing and setting up a caching plugin, installing and setting up an image optimisation plugin and a few other tweaks. A faster site is a better site for user and Google!
We offer a staging environment for customers on our Business and Premium plans. If you have a website with additional functionality or need to perform some changes to the site, a staging environment is perfect for this. A staging site means you can work on your website and make changes while leaving your live site as it is. Once you are happy with your changes, you can then push those to your live site. Great for testing and development.
If you run WooCommerce on your website, then you will need to select the premium plan. The reason is that your site data is changing all the time with orders. You need to have real-time backups of your website to ensure no orders are lost in the event of a technical issue or hack. WooCommerce also adds to the size of your database and site files. This, in turn, adds to our backup and security resources and storage on the server.
The setup fee is a one-off payment required when you choose to have a new website created and sign up to a plan. This covers the initial work creating your website, adding additional performance and security plugins and setting up your monthly maintenance report. If you already have a WordPress website, there is no setup fee!
