A managed Website Care Plan for WordPress and WooCommerce travel sites. We handle updates, security, backups, uptime and speed, so your website stays a booking asset instead of quietly becoming a liability between projects.
A site launches fast, secure and current. Left alone, it drifts. WordPress, themes and plugins release constant updates, and the ones that go unapplied are exactly where sites get hacked, slow down and break. The travel sites that keep working, and keep ranking and booking, are the ones that get maintained.
Website maintenance is the ongoing work of keeping a live website secure, updated, backed up, fast and functioning. For a WordPress travel site that means regular core, theme and plugin updates, security and uptime monitoring, off-site backups, performance optimisation and technical support, carried out on a schedule rather than only when something goes wrong.
Outdated software is one of the leading causes of hacked websites. Regular updates, backups and monitoring are the difference between a travel website that reliably takes bookings and one that quietly becomes a liability. Prevention costs far less than an emergency clean-up or lost bookings from downtime.
We’ve designed, built and maintained travel and tourism websites for over eight years. Maintenance isn’t an afterthought for us, it’s how we keep client sites ranking and taking bookings long after launch.
Most websites we care for were built by another agency or developer. We start with a technical review to understand how the site is set up, flag existing risks, and bring it into a stable, monitored routine. You don't need to have built with us to be looked after by us.
We understand WordPress, WooCommerce, hosting, security and performance at a technical level, so when something needs judgement, an update that could break a booking flow, a speed problem, a security alert, you have people who can actually fix it, not just forward a ticket.
Nine things we handle every month to keep your travel website secure, fast, online and improving. Each one earns its place by preventing a specific, costly problem.
Why it matters: core updates patch security holes and keep the site stable. We apply and test them so your site stays protected without breaking.
Why it matters: plugins are the most common entry point for attackers. We review, update and check each one, rather than letting risky auto-updates run unchecked.
Why it matters: if the worst happens, backups are your safety net. We store them off-site, separate from your host, so the site can always be restored quickly.
Why it matters: WordPress is a top target for hackers. We monitor and harden your site, watch for threats, and act before a small issue becomes a breach.
Why it matters: a site that's down is losing enquiries and bookings. We monitor uptime around the clock and are alerted the moment it goes offline, often before you notice.
Why it matters: speed affects rankings and conversions. We keep images, caching, scripts and the database healthy, so Core Web Vitals and load times stay strong.
Why it matters: things come up. You get a real team to handle questions, issues and fixes, with response times matched to your plan tier.
Why it matters: small edits pile up. Your plan includes an allowance for text changes, image swaps and small tweaks, so tours and rates stay current without a separate quote each time.
Why it matters: you should know what you're paying for. Each month you get a plain-language report of the updates, backups, security, uptime and work carried out.
Simple, fixed monthly plans with no long lock-in. Every plan is scoped to your site after a short review, so the price you see is the price you pay.
For brochure & smaller travel websites
For enquiry-led operators, lodges & DMCs
For WooCommerce & booking-driven sites
All plans are month to month. Hosting is separate and can be arranged if needed. Larger changes and new features are quoted separately from your plan.
If you have the technical skill and time, some of this can be done in-house. For most travel businesses, the real cost isn't the plan, it's the lost bookings, emergency clean-ups and team hours when maintenance slips. A Care Plan turns an unpredictable risk into a small, fixed monthly cost.

A travel website is a booking channel that runs every day, often serving international travellers around the clock. Outdated software is a leading cause of hacked, slow and broken sites, and downtime during a booking window means lost enquiries. Regular updates, backups and monitoring keep the site earning instead of quietly becoming a liability.
Yes. Most sites we care for were built by another agency or developer. We start with a technical review to understand how the site is set up, flag existing risks, and bring it into a stable, monitored routine. You don't need to have built with us to be looked after by us.
Plans are simple, fixed monthly fees with no long lock-in, starting from R2,000 per month for the Essential plan. Business and eCommerce plans are scoped to your site and quoted after a short review, so the price you see is the price you pay. Hosting is separate and can be arranged if needed.
Indirectly, yes. Speed, uptime and security all affect rankings and conversions, and a site that stays fast and online keeps ranking and taking bookings. A care plan protects the visibility and enquiries your website already earns, and higher plans include ongoing speed and content work that keeps improving them.
Hosting is separate from the care plan and can be arranged if you need it. The care plan covers the ongoing maintenance, security, backups, monitoring and support that keep your site healthy, whether it's hosted with us or elsewhere.
No. Care plans are month to month with no long lock-in. We keep you by looking after your site well, not by tying you into a contract. Larger changes and new features are quoted separately from the monthly plan.
Tell us about your site and we'll recommend the right care plan. We'll review how it's set up, flag any risks, and keep it protected, updated and online, so it keeps ranking and taking bookings. No long lock-in.
