Maintenance is more than plugin updates. Security, backups, monitoring, fixes, accessibility, and content all count.
Reliable nonprofit website maintenance that catches problems before your supporters do.
Our nonprofit website maintenance keeps your site secure, current, and working, so your team can stay focused on the mission. Through our WordPress Care Plans, we handle the updates, backups, security monitoring, fixes, and content changes, and we catch problems before your supporters do.
Every Care Plan includes a client dashboard for monitoring your site, tracking tasks, and reaching your team.

01
Maintenance is more than plugin updates. Security, backups, monitoring, fixes, accessibility, and content all count.
02
Hosting keeps your site online. Maintenance keeps it safe, current, and working, and most nonprofits need both.
03
Skipped maintenance tends to show up on your busiest day: a giving day, a year-end appeal, or an event launch.
04
Updates alone aren’t enough. Someone should get the alert before your supporters see an error.
05
Choose care by how much you rely on the site. Our Care Plans start at $89 a month.
WordPress care plans
Every plan includes managed hosting, updates, and support from people who know your site. The difference is how much protection you need: Flex Support covers the essentials, and Active Protection adds advanced security and around-the-clock monitoring.

What is included
We think of website care as a cycle with six parts. Every Care Plan covers all six. The plans differ in how much monitoring and protection sit behind them.
01
Patchstack counted 11,334 new WordPress vulnerabilities in 2025, and 91% of them were in plugins. Firewall protection, malware prevention, security hardening, SSL, and nightly backups reduce that risk. No provider can remove it.
How often
Around the clock
02
WordPress core, themes, and plugins release updates all the time, and many are security fixes. We apply them as they are released and test afterward, so an update does not quietly break a form or a page.
How often
As released
03
Uptime monitoring checks that your site is responding, and bot and spam protection keeps junk out of your forms. When something looks wrong, the alert comes to us.
How often
Around the clock
04
When something stops working, we diagnose the cause, then fix it or restore a clean backup. Afterward, we tell you what happened and what changed.
How often
As needed
05
Program details, staff pages, and event information age faster than anyone expects. Support requests cover text, photo, and minor design updates, so changes do not wait for someone to learn the editor.
How often
Monthly
06
Every new page and plugin can introduce accessibility or speed problems. Periodic checks guided by WCAG 2.2 and Core Web Vitals catch that drift, and our recommendations help you decide when a fix is not enough.
How often
Periodically

The challenge
Giving days, year-end appeals, galas, grant reviews. The traffic arrives when it matters most, and so do the problems nobody noticed.
Logins, passwords, and know-how leave with them, and nobody’s sure what’s been updated since.
A plugin conflict or expired connection can stop gifts and sign-ups before anyone on staff notices.
Outdated program details, broken links, and last year’s event pages stay up while staff handle everything else.
Website security
Bots and AI tools now scan websites around the clock for outdated plugins, weak logins, and open forms, and the attacks get faster every year. We see the results in hacked nonprofit sites. Every Care Plan includes firewall protection and hack protection and response, and Active Protection adds advanced bot and spam defense.

FAQ
Nonprofit website maintenance is the ongoing work of keeping an organization’s website secure, current, and working. That includes updating software and plugins, backing up the site, monitoring for downtime and attacks, fixing what breaks, and keeping content accurate.
The cost of nonprofit website maintenance depends on how much monitoring and support your site needs. Our WordPress Care Plans start at $89 a month for Flex Support, plus a setup fee, $159 for Active Protection, and $299 for Proactive Care. Enterprise care is quoted individually.
A nonprofit website needs continuous care, though not all of it at once. Security protection runs around the clock, backups run nightly, and updates go in as they’re released. Content deserves a monthly look, and accessibility and performance need a periodic review.
Hosting provides the server and resources that keep your website online. Maintenance is the ongoing work that keeps the site updated, secure, and working. Most nonprofits need both, and every Care Plan includes both, along with nightly backups, a firewall, and SSL.
Yes, if it runs on WordPress. We migrate your site to our managed hosting at no charge when you start a Care Plan, using a process designed to avoid downtime. Then we review the site and tell you what we’d fix first.
Care Plans include malware prevention and response, and higher tiers add enhanced protection and cleanup. Nightly backups mean a clean version of the site can be restored. No provider can promise a site will never be compromised; what matters is how quickly it’s caught and fixed.
Nonprofit website management in house works when someone has the time, access, and skills to keep a regular schedule. A maintenance partner makes more sense when the site drives fundraising or services, staff and volunteers change often, or nobody clearly owns the website.
Yes. A new website still depends on plugins and themes that receive security updates, and content starts aging the day you launch. Planning for maintenance from the start is easier than catching up after something breaks.
Support beyond maintenance
Turn what maintenance uncovers into a practical plan, with regular check-ins as your priorities change.
Clarify what to say and how to organize it, so the pages you keep updating are worth keeping.
When a site is beyond maintaining, plan a redesign around your audiences, content, and accessibility.
Let’s talk
Your next campaign shouldn’t depend on whether a plugin update went smoothly. Pick a Care Plan, or tell us about your website and we’ll recommend the right level of nonprofit website maintenance. If you’re moving from another host, migration is on us. Either way, you’ll know who’s responsible.
