WordPress Admin & Management
Fractional WordPress administrator on retainer. Day-to-day site management: content updates, plugin and theme curation, performance tuning, security hardening, backups, uptime monitoring, and editorial workflow support. Acts as your in-house WordPress lead without the headcount.
How it runs
- 01
Onboarding & Audit
Inventory the WordPress estate: hosting, CMS version, themes, plugins, users, roles, and integrations. Identify high-risk plugins, abandoned themes, and outdated core. Capture a baseline of performance, security, and uptime.
- 02
Hardening & Baseline
Apply security headers, lock down wp-admin, enforce 2FA on privileged roles, prune dormant accounts, and standardise the plugin set. Configure automated backups with verified restore procedures.
- 03
Scheduled Maintenance
Run a weekly maintenance window covering plugin and theme updates, core upgrades, database optimisation, and broken-link checks. Stage updates before production where impact is non-trivial.
- 04
Performance Tuning
Optimise caching layers, image delivery, render-blocking assets, and database queries. Measure Core Web Vitals and iterate. Keep TTFB and LCP within target thresholds across key pages.
- 05
Editorial & Content Support
Support editors with custom blocks, page templates, ACF tweaks, and workflow improvements. Triage and resolve content-team tickets within SLA so editorial velocity stays high.
- 06
Monthly Reporting
Deliver a monthly executive report covering uptime, patches applied, security events, performance trend, and a short list of recommended next-month improvements.
