WordPress maintenance for freelancers & self-employed professionals
Last updated on
You are your own marketing, your own sales and your own IT. The website usually runs in the background – until it stops running. We take care of updates, backups and security for a fixed monthly fee, so you can spend your time on client work.

Why maintenance matters especially for solo professionals
As a freelancer, you bear the risk of downtime alone: there is no colleague to step in, and no service provider who already has access. If the website goes down, it goes down in the middle of your daily workload – and the search for help begins under time pressure.
Fixed monthly fee
Predictable costs from €39 instead of unpredictable hourly rates in an emergency. Cancellable monthly, no setup fee.
No time required
One to three hours a month for updates and checks are no longer needed. Your time is worth more on client projects.
Enquiries arrive
We test form delivery regularly. A silent failure costs you jobs directly, without you noticing.
Security
Firewall, login protection and malware scans protect your domain – and with it your name as a brand.
Updates & backups
Tested updates on fixed cycles, daily external backups – including restoration if something goes wrong after all.
Performance
Portfolio and reference pages thrive on images. We keep them fast without sacrificing image quality.
Monthly report
You see in writing what was done – without having to look into the backend yourself.
Personal point of contact
You write to us directly. We know your setup and reply in plain language, without technical jargon.
Industry knowledge
What do freelancers need for a secure WordPress website?
Freelancers above all need a website that stays secure and reachable without any effort of their own. That includes regular updates, daily backups, a valid SSL certificate and legally compliant mandatory information. Even solo freelancers are liable for data protection violations via their website – and an outage costs enquiries that end up with the competition.

- Art. 13 GDPR: Privacy policy covering all services in use.

- Art. 32 GDPR: Technical security, e.g. encryption and up-to-date software.
What we check with every maintenance
