CriticalWP handles WordPress maintenance for your client sites — so you can focus on the work that actually pays. Active subscribers get a free listing in our Verified Freelancer Directory.
You built the site. Now you're the one getting called when a plugin update breaks the checkout, when the contact form stops working, when the client's site goes down on a Sunday night. None of that is billable. All of it is expected.
WordPress maintenance at scale — even a handful of client sites — becomes a part-time job nobody hired you for. Updates, backups, security scans, uptime checks, plugin conflicts. You're a developer, a designer, a strategist. Not a systems administrator.
CriticalWP handles the infrastructure layer so you don't have to. Your client sites run on a managed platform with Cloudflare Enterprise, automatic updates, security monitoring, and support — all for a flat monthly rate you can build into your client retainer.
Core, theme, and plugin updates handled and tested by our team. No more rollbacks at midnight because a client's site broke after an update.
Continuous security monitoring, brute force protection, and hardening — included in every plan. Your client sites are protected without you managing a security plugin.
Enterprise-grade performance and DDoS protection on every site. Your clients get infrastructure they can't access on their own — included in your plan.
When something breaks, open a ticket — we fix it. You don't have to be the one diagnosing a white screen or a plugin conflict at inconvenient hours.
