WordPress Website Maintenance

Your public site supports fundraising, programs, and trust. WordPress stays healthy when core software, plugins, and themes are updated on a rhythm, monitored for breakage, and backed up before changes.

Eligible nonprofits receive monthly maintenance from Good Heart Tech at no cost.

Why scheduled maintenance matters

Outdated plugins and themes are one of the most common ways nonprofit sites get compromised. Updates also fix compatibility issues that quietly slow pages down or break donation flows. A predictable monthly cycle beats emergency rebuilds after an outage or defacement.

What we handle each cycle

Exact steps depend on your hosting and theme, but our nonprofit maintenance plan typically includes:

Monthly summary report

Speed optimizations

Backups before changes

Security scans

Performance checks

Analytics review

WordPress core updates

Plugin updates

Theme updates

How we coordinate with you

We do not maintain content, copy, images, or design

Maintenance is technical only: WordPress core, plugins, themes, backups, security and performance checks, and fixing technical breakage. We do not edit copy, publish posts, swap images or PDFs, or change layout, styling, or branding—that is your team’s work (or another vendor’s).

  • Communication: You know when maintenance runs and what changed.
  • Rollback mindset: Backups mean we can undo a bad plugin release instead of guessing.

Public websites are one piece of a broader posture. Many partners pair this with security & compliance support for email and cloud systems.

Request maintenance

Send your site URL, hosting setup (if you know it), and whether anyone else edits the site today. We will confirm eligibility and onboarding steps for nonprofit partners.
