WordPress Maintenance Costs
What does professional WordPress maintenance cost? Transparent prices from €49/month. No hidden costs, cancel monthly.
What does professional WordPress maintenance cost? It is one of the first questions every website owner asks — and the answer varies wildly between providers. From €10 per month for automated update bots to €300+ for agency retainers. On this page we explain exactly what maintenance costs, what determines the price, and what you should look for when comparing providers.
At WP Maintainer, prices are simple and transparent. Our Starter plan costs €49 per month and covers everything a small business website needs: daily backups, weekly tested updates, security monitoring and support. The SMB plan at €79 per month adds daily backups with longer retention, WhatsApp support and an hour of monthly website changes. The Enterprise plan at €149 per month is built for webshops and complex websites, with real-time monitoring, priority support and WooCommerce-specific care.
When comparing prices, look beyond the monthly fee. Ask what is actually included: Are updates tested on staging? Are backups daily and external? Is security monitoring real-time? Is support unlimited or billed per hour? A €20 plan that only runs auto-updates can cost you dearly when an update breaks your site or a hack goes undetected for weeks.
Also consider the alternative costs. Cleaning a hacked website costs €500 to €2,500. A day of downtime for a webshop can cost thousands in lost revenue. And your own time — two to four hours per month spent on updates, checks and troubleshooting — has a real value too. For most businesses, professional maintenance is simply the cheapest option.
Why these prices are fair
Everything included
Our monthly fee covers everything: updates, backups, security, monitoring and support. No setup fees, no per-incident charges, no surprise invoices. The price you see is the price you pay.
Cancel monthly
No annual contracts or lock-in. You can cancel every month. We keep you as a customer through quality, not through contracts.
Cheaper than DIY
Two to four hours of your own time per month, plus the risk of mistakes, plus recovery costs when something goes wrong. Professional maintenance from €49 is almost always the cheaper option.
