WordPress maintenance and support

A team of software developers who know WordPress inside out. We keep your site updated, backed up, secure and fast, fix it when something breaks, and can host it too. We quote the work, or consult on a problem.

What we look after

  • WordPress, theme and plugin updates, with a backup taken first
  • Backups, and restoring your site from them when needed
  • Security checks, and cleaning up hacked sites
  • Speed and performance
  • Keeping an eye on your site, so problems are found early
  • Fixing errors, broken pages and forms that do not send
  • Small changes and content updates
  • WooCommerce shops, including checkout and order emails
  • Hosting, if you want one team looking after everything

Problems we fix

  • Your website is slow
  • An update broke something on the site
  • Your site has been hacked, or browsers show a warning
  • Your contact form emails are not arriving
  • Your site is down or shows an error
  • You need a change made and have nobody to make it

Developers, not designers

We do the technical side of WordPress, and we do it properly. We are not designers. If you want a new look or a redesign, get it from a designer you trust and send us the designs. We will build them in WordPress and keep the site healthy afterwards.

Because we are also software developers, we can go further than maintenance: custom plugins, integrations with Google, Xero and WooCommerce, and AI where it helps.

Apps that help, from the same team

We make our own software too, and AI is where our team is focused. Add them to your site as you need them. We work with what you already use: your website, Google, Xero, WooCommerce and WordPress.

Questions people ask

What does WordPress maintenance include?

We keep WordPress, your theme and your plugins up to date, take backups, check security, watch your site's speed, and fix errors when they appear. We also make small changes and content updates. If you want, we can host the site as well.

Do you look after sites you did not build?

Yes. Most of the sites we look after were built by someone else. We look at what you have first, so we know what we are taking on.

Can you build or change things, not just maintain them?

Yes. We are software developers as well as WordPress people, so we can build custom plugins and features, connect your site to Google, Xero and WooCommerce, and add AI where it helps.

Do you do website design?

No. We are developers, not designers. If you want a new look or a redesign, send us the designs from your designer or agency and we will build them in WordPress.

Can you host my website?

Yes. We can host your WordPress site as part of your plan, so hosting, updates, backups and fixes are handled by one team.

What if my site is hacked or down right now?

Tell us straight away: use the form on this page and say it is urgent. We will look at it as soon as we can and tell you what we find.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the size of your site and what it needs. We look at what you have and give you a quote, or advice if you would like a second opinion first, so you know the price before you commit.

Can you look after my WooCommerce shop?

Yes. We keep the shop updated and secure, fix checkout and order email problems, and can connect your shop, Google Analytics and Xero to Comma5 Live, so you see sales and website figures together.

Do you work with businesses outside Melbourne?

Yes. Everything we do is done remotely, so we look after sites for businesses across Australia.
