to offer it and why to hire it)<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/nav>\n<\/div>\n<p>Many designers and developers think that their clients come straight from hell.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is, website developers have a wide variety of clients.<\/p>\n<p>Some of them are not familiar with WordPress and web design and let the experts do what they know how to do, while others believe that their opinion is always correct even though they have no web development experience. Willing or not, customers should be polite!<\/p>\n<p>One of the most common misconceptions is that a site does not need any work after it is added online.<\/p>\n<p>This is a huge mistake often made by freelancers, programmers, designers, developers, and agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Every time a site is launched, the customer must be informed that it is only the beginning and not the end. A website needs consistent improvements, updates, and new content, and customers are not always aware of this work.<\/p>\n<p>Educate your customers and you won&#039;t be bothered by annoying phone calls.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of a cold relationship with customers, strengthen it by providing a WordPress maintenance service.<\/p>\n<p>Many clients will allow you to handle maintenance for a monthly fee.<\/p>\n<p>This way, they can be sure that you will take care of their site, and you can generate recurring monthly income.<\/p>\n<p>In the following lines, I&#039;ll show you what a WordPress maintenance service is, its benefits, and a list of useful tools to help you do it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%BFQue-es-un-servicio-de-mantenimiento-de-WordPress\"><\/span><span id=\"Que_es_un_servicio_de_mantenimiento_de_WordPress\">What is a WordPress maintenance service?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A WordPress maintenance service covers a wide area, but most include things like WordPress core, theme and plugin updates, backups, security, hosting, and analytics. Of course, you can expand your WordPress services depending on the needs of the client.<\/p>\n<p>Here, we will look at each type of service so that you can assess whether it is capable of offering WordPress maintenance services or if you need to hire someone to perform these tasks.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1-Actualizaciones-regulares\"><\/span><span id=\"1_Actualizaciones_regulares\">1. Regular updates<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you&#039;ve used WordPress for many years, updating WordPress core, themes, and plugins is probably the most mundane activity.<\/p>\n<p>Someone who uses WordPress in moderation, however, may have a different opinion and will pay a reasonable monthly fee for someone else to do this work.<\/p>\n<p>This type of service is simple but can come with complications: you have to keep the WordPress core, themes and plugins up to date, but at the same time test these updates before implementing them live to make sure they do not cause errors or unwanted changes. .<\/p>\n<p>You can explain to customers the relevance of having an up-to-date site.<\/p>\n<p>A record of all your operations can help you justify your work.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-Copias-de-seguridad\"><\/span><span id=\"2_Copias_de_seguridad\">2. Backups<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>People have health, home, or car insurance, and they pay a lot of money for it. Explain to your clients that a backup is identical to insurance; if something bad happens, they have a safety net.<\/p>\n<p>A good WordPress maintenance service should have a full backup at least at least once a day; backups should be tested and stored off-site and if possible in multiple locations.<\/p>\n<p>Offer regular backups as part of your WordPress maintenance service.<\/p>\n<p>Explain to your customers the role of a backup, and they will most likely gladly pay to &#039;guarantee&#039; their sites.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Seguridad\"><\/span><span id=\"3_Seguridad\">3. Security<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>People can hardly believe that their site could be hacked until it happens. Your role as a developer is to emphasize that security is vital to a website.<\/p>\n<p>Inform your customers that WordPress has a large market share, and is like a magnet for hackers. If they find just one of the WordPress vulnerabilities, they can break into a myriad of sites.<\/p>\n<p>It is only a matter of time until your client&#039;s site is hacked unless someone expert reinforces its security. Show your clients our WordPress security infographic to educate them on their actions to protect their sites.<\/p>\n<p>A WordPress maintenance service necessarily includes the security of a site. Hacking methods are getting more and more sophisticated, and any site administrator needs decent skills to protect it.<\/p>\n<p>Site security evolves, it doesn&#039;t work on the set and forget principle.<\/p>\n<p>All of these factors combined should convince your customers that site security is serious business, and you could be their savior.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Alojamiento\"><\/span><span id=\"4_Alojamiento\">4. Accommodation<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Most of the customers are afraid of any problems related to hosting. Management tools fall short on the ease of use chapter, and people hate them.<\/p>\n<p>Inform your past and current clients that managing their hosting problems is part of your maintenance service package.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike security or backups, being in charge of solving hosting problems means an active dialogue with your customers. Review your hosting plans and suggest improvements to get better services for less money.<\/p>\n<p>Talk to them and make joint decisions. You could even ask a hosting company for a discount if you have a lot of customers willing to migrate their sites.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-Analitica\"><\/span><span id=\"5_Analitica\">5. Analytics<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Google Analytics is a powerful tool that provides an impressive amount of data. An inexperienced WordPress user may have trouble setting up the tracking code.<\/p>\n<p>Others may not be able to interpret the data.<\/p>\n<p>A correct interpretation of the statistics of the site is essential to improve it, so let your customers know how important it is to extract and evaluate the data correctly.<\/p>\n<p>Include a report from Google Analytics and the Google Search Console in your maintenance services.<\/p>\n<p>It depends on your availability, but your customers will certainly appreciate your suggestions because the numbers (at the same time known as approximate data) might not be suggestive enough for some of them. Extract raw data with analysis tools and create digestible reports.<\/p>\n<p>These reports will convince people that they are not wasting their money and that you are the best maintainer of the site.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-Mejora-del-rendimiento-del-sitio\"><\/span><span id=\"6_Mejora_del_rendimiento_del_sitio\">6. Improved site performance<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Site performance is a broad term that covers many activities.<\/p>\n<p>Some agencies and freelancers consider site performance improvement a separate activity and do not include it in a maintenance service package.<\/p>\n<p>It is up to you whether or not you want to add this service to your maintenance plans. Consider selling tiered plans and including performance improvement on higher plans.<\/p>\n<p>Site performance improvement services should include the following basic operations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Speed improvement<\/strong>. Review the site using tools like Google Page Insights to determine the current situation and follow suggested best practices to speed up the site. Add cache and performance plugins to promote the overall user experience.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Remove unused themes and plugins<\/strong>. Reduce site load by removing unused themes and plugins. They can contain security vulnerabilities and slow down the loading speed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Clear the broken links<\/strong>. Too many broken links affect the credibility of the site, but you can easily remove them with the help of plugins.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Basic one-page SEO<\/strong>. Optionally, you can offer a SEO consulting page. A client who hires you for maintenance services is probably not an SEO guru, so educate your clients by introducing the role of SEO in site effectiveness.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7-Auditoria-de-Codigo\"><\/span><span id=\"7_Auditoria_de_Codigo\">7. Code Audit<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A code audit is another optional item to add to your WordPress maintenance plans. Consider including a free code audit when you are first hired.<\/p>\n<p>A code audit is useful when customers already have a site and hire you to handle maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>Most likely they have used a free theme or buggy plugins, or the developers stopped providing support and updates for them.

Content Audit<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It is true that content creation is totally different from WordPress maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>Typically, designers and developers are responsible for maintaining the site, and many of them are not passionate about writing. However, experienced maintainers needed to review the content of the site.<\/p>\n<p>The success of any online presence is highly dependent on the content.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#039;ve managed content-heavy blogs or sites, you might be the right person to do a basic content audit.<\/p>\n<p>A full content audit is a totally different world, but a basic audit takes little time and can be done by an average or advanced blogger.<\/p>\n<p>You can combine data from analytics reports to inform your customers of the best performing keywords.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, a basic content audit should analyze the meta description, keywords, length, links, and format of each message.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9-Servicios-Miscelaneos\"><\/span><span id=\"9_Servicios_Miscelaneos\">9.

Backup plugins<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Any WordPress maintenance service plan should include site backups.<\/p>\n<p>The WordPress repository is a good starting point for identifying reliable backup plugins, but in most cases its functionality is limited.<\/p>\n<p>If you manage some sites, you can choose for free plugins and do backups manually.<\/p>\n<p>However, a premium plugin creates full backups at scheduled intervals. To avoid any kind of problem, keep at least two backups in different locations.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some suggestions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>UpDraftPlus. The slogan on the main page - &#039;The World&#039;s Most Trusted WordPress Backup Plugin&#039; - is not far from the truth. It enables full or partial backups, and you can save multiple copies to multiple locations, including the cloud. At the same time it works for WordPress multisite.<\/li>\n<li>BackupBuddy. Another massively used plugin, BackupBuddy allows you to schedule automatic backups and store them in multiple locations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-Plugins-de-seguridad\"><\/span>5.

If your WordPress development, design, or marketing business isn&#039;t offering a WordPress site maintenance package, you&#039;re missing out on a great opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Give your customers peace of mind and spare them the horror they would suffer if left to their own devices, while establishing yourself as your one-stop web solution. It is a win-win situation!<\/p>\n<p>If you&#039;re thinking, &quot;It sounds amazing, but I don&#039;t have time for that,&quot; don&#039;t worry.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, I&#039;m going to show you how you can add WordPress maintenance to your business using automation and partnerships with third-party services.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time we will see how to price your services and manage your costs so that you can make a healthy profit. If you are looking to increase your earnings, this is for YOU.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Estrategia-de-determinacion-de-precios\"><\/span><span id=\"Estrategia_de_determinacion_de_precios\">Pricing strategy<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Price maintenance services are an ideal way to get started with value-based pricing.<\/p>\n<p>With value-based pricing, you are not tying your price to your hourly rate, but to what your customer receives in return. This enables you to charge a higher rate.<\/p>\n<p>More money sounds great, right?<\/p>\n<p>So what is the catch?<\/p>\n<p>Well, being able to show how much value you are bringing can be difficult to communicate.<\/p>\n<p>When you are building a new site, you cannot predict with certainty how your talents will benefit the business, but with maintenance services, it is an entirely different story.<\/p>\n<p>If you know how much your site makes per day or per month, you can shift your customers&#039; focus on what they might lose if your site goes down, which can be a lot depending on how much your site makes.<\/p>\n<p>As an example, a site that earns $500 per day can lose thousands if it is down for several days. In that context, it makes sense to pay several hundred dollars a month to protect the site.<\/p>\n<p>It&#039;s like insurance.<\/p>\n<p>Communicating how value is generated by protecting your site on an ongoing basis is essential.<\/p>\n<p>When offering maintenance services, be sure to submit ongoing reports on the health of your site, so your customer can take note of your behind-the-scenes efforts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Work, work, work, work, work, work<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When your site maintenance fee is no longer tied to how much time passes, you can create time-saving shortcuts that will benefit your bottom line.<\/p>\n<p>Isn&#039;t that ingenious?<\/p>\n<p>You are rewarded for being more efficient.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You can maximize your profits by offering only high value return services for a minimum of manual labor.<\/li>\n<li>Create processes and checklists so you can get to work quickly.<\/li>\n<li>If you have to complete a task continuously, you should find ways to automate it to save time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Como-configurar-su-servicio-de-mantenimiento-de-WordPress\"><\/span><span id=\"Como_configurar_su_servicio_de_mantenimiento_de_WordPress\">How to set up your WordPress maintenance service<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Haciendo-el-trabajo-en-casa\"><\/span>Doing work at home<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>If you want to maximize revenue and take full responsibility for your clients&#039; sites, you will need some tools and \/ or plugins to help you get the job done.<\/p>\n<p>To keep your costs down, remember the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Automate everything (well, almost everything)<\/li>\n<li>Choose tools and plugins that don&#039;t charge you a license per site<\/li>\n<li>Avoid hosts \/ services that charge an additional fee for ecommerce or multisite<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>WPMU DEV offers you all the tools you need to start your own WordPress maintenance business included in your subscription.<\/p>\n<p>WPMU DEV not only offers you all of the above with no restrictions on number of sites, e-commerce or multisite, but at the same time you have access to a host of additional plugins, our first class support team, member forums, The Hub, white label reports and much more.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Servicios-de-mantenimiento-de-WordPress-para-ofrecer-a-sus-clientes\"><\/span><span id=\"Servicios_de_mantenimiento_de_WordPress_para_ofrecer_a_sus_clientes\">WordPress maintenance services to offer to your clients<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To provide a full service website solution, here are some website maintenance services that you can offer to your clients.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Copias-de-seguridad-programadas-en-la-nube\"><\/span>Scheduled backups to the cloud<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Even if the host your customer is using already backs up, you really should have backups in multiple places. Snapshot Pro makes it easy. Offer automated daily backups as a precaution to protect your site. If the host doesn&#039;t offer daily backups or if you want to create a backup elsewhere, you can use a plug-in like Snapshot Pro to schedule automated backups.<\/p>\n<p>Having a reliable backup is essential and redundant backups protect against technical and user errors.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, not all backups are clean. If a site was hacked and no one noticed for a while, all your backups could have nefarious files. This is something that is avoided by keeping the copies clean.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Escaneos-de-seguridad\"><\/span>Security scans<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Speaking of hacking, actively searching for vulnerabilities will show you what you need to improve upon. There are plugins that can scan your site for recognized vulnerabilities and return you a list of suggested improvements.<\/p>\n<p>Defender runs automated security scans and sends you vulnerability reports and security recommendations that you can pass on to your customer.<\/p>\n<p>This at the same time can open the opportunity for you to suggest the necessary changes to your clients that can bring more income to you.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Actualizaciones-seguras\"><\/span>Secure updates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Although WordPress makes it easy to automate plugin, theme, and core updates, you need to make sure the update doesn&#039;t destroy your site. You need to be able to test the updates on a staging site and see how the update affects critical functionality.<\/p>\n<p>Setting up a staging environment can be a bit of a hassle, so choosing a host who offers this service is the best way to go.<\/p>\n<p>A staging environment at the same time is useful for testing new functions. If you&#039;ve already gone to the trouble of setting up a tuning environment for updates, you can inform your customers that you can test the changes on your site at the same time. This will give you the opportunity to do custom development that you can bill at your hourly rate.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Monitoreo-del-tiempo-de-funcionamiento\"><\/span>Run time monitoring<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>A site that is periodically down loses its credibility in the eyes of visitors and search engines. Sometimes your visitors will let you know that there is a problem and other times, they may go to your competition.<\/p>\n<p>This is why uptime monitoring is so important. Sending your customers an uptime monitoring report can show them that you are making sure your site is available at all times so they don&#039;t miss a sale.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Declutando-Bases-de-Datos\"><\/span>Deciding Databases<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Think of cleaning up your database like a pre-move garage sale. The less you have, the easier it is to move.<\/p>\n<p>Declaring your database will allow backups to run faster and use fewer resources, which can save you a lot of time on hosting.<\/p>\n<p>Removing unused plugins, unused themes, spam comments, excessive post reviews, unused tags \/ categories, processed form entries, unused images manually or with cleanup plugins will provide you with a better site performance.<\/p>\n<p>Not to mention, removing unused plugins and themes prevents hacking through out-of-date files.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Informes-de-optimizacion\"><\/span>Optimization reports<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>As I mentioned previously, reports are a valuable tool to help you communicate your value to your customers. Some valuable optimization reports can focus on SEO, site speed and performance, and analytics.<\/p>\n<p>Look for reports that you can automate and white labels for maximum efficiency.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uniendolo-todo\"><\/span><span id=\"Uniendolo_todo\">Putting it all together<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Since maintenance is ongoing, I suggest a monthly pricing model. You can have a flat fee or divide your services into several tiers.<\/p>\n<p>As an example, a tier for services that are easily achieved and a VIP tier that includes support and \/ or custom development for you to make a good profit. For support, you may charge an additional fee for on-call telephone support.<\/p>\n<p>The key is to set the expectation that your time is not free so that you don&#039;t have customers asking you for more and more.<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to describe in detail what each plan covers so your customers know where your plan starts and ends.<\/p>\n<p>Better yet, include a maintenance and support package for a few months with the initial construction of your site. They will get used to the benefits of your viewing their site and lose it when the service expires.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Socio-Howdy\"><\/span>Howdy Partner<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>While automation can help you grow your business exponentially, a WordPress maintenance business isn&#039;t exactly passive income.

Basic websites with a minimum of information are a thing of the past: on today&#039;s websites, complex and extensive information can be accessed in a few seconds.<\/p>\n<p>It is not development, but keeping the website up to date and constantly secure is more difficult.<\/p>\n<p>Just a small mistake can cost you the operation of your website, which will ultimately affect your business.<\/p>\n<p>Here we list the reasons why you should use the services of an expert when it comes to WordPress maintenance.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Menos-cosas-de-las-que-preocuparse\"><\/span><span id=\"Menos_cosas_de_las_que_preocuparse\">Less things to worry about<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Designing your own website or not keeping it updated will require a lot of time and effort, which could affect the proper functioning of your business.<\/p>\n<p>In order to keep your website fresh various tasks such as bug fixes or updates will be necessary from time to time. Therefore, the first advantage of hiring an expert is that you can make an unlimited number of task requests.<\/p>\n<p>Another advantage of hiring these professionals is that they will review your website on a daily basis and if it requires any updates, for example for WordPress plug-ins, it will be done at the right time with your permission.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, approximately 32% of websites are powered by WordPress.

Therefore, it is beneficial to have someone constantly monitoring your website and if you face a power outage it can be restored immediately.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Copias-de-seguridad-diarias\"><\/span><span id=\"Copias_de_seguridad_diarias\">Daily backups<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Having backup copies of any type of digital information is a necessity in today&#039;s world. Suppose you have to suffer the unfortunate event of your website going down, if you don&#039;t have backup you will have to start building your website from scratch.<\/p>\n<p>But maintenance companies will take backups on a regular basis and store them in the cloud. Therefore, you will have a large amount of data to start with in case your website goes down.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Facilidad-de-un-centro-de-apoyo\"><\/span><span id=\"Facilidad_de_un_centro_de_apoyo\">Ease of a support center<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are times when you cannot explain certain problems by writing about them. But if you could tell someone over the phone, that would be great, right? If you are using the services of an expert, being able to call a support center for any difficulties you encounter is an added bonus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u24cc \u00bb WordPress Maintenance (How to offer it and why hire it) Many designers and developers think that their clients come directly from hell.
