The plan that keeps your site alive.

A website isn’t furniture — it needs upkeep. Every Stonekept care plan covers managed hosting, updates, security, monitoring, and a monthly allowance of edits.

Why care plans

An unmaintained website is a slow-motion problem.

WordPress, plugins, and themes update constantly. Skip those updates and a site gets slower, less secure, and eventually breaks. A care plan means someone is always watching — so you never have to.

01
Without a plan

Out-of-date software, no backups, no monitoring. Problems are discovered by your customers — or by a security incident — long after they could have been prevented.

02
With a Stonekept plan

Updates tested and applied on schedule, weekly backups, 24/7 monitoring, and a direct line for edits. The site stays an asset, quietly and reliably.

Hosting

Hosting is part of the plan — and you can step up.

Every care plan includes managed hosting — no separate bill, no scrambling to set up an account somewhere else. By default that’s reliable shared hosting, which fits most small-business sites. If you need consistently faster load times, dedicated cloud hosting is a clean upgrade.

  • ✓
    Shared, included by default

    Managed shared hosting, SSL, and weekly backups — ready to go from launch day.

  • ✓
    Cloud upgrade +$29/mo

    Dedicated cloud resources for sites that need to stay fast under heavier traffic.

  • ✓
    Move up anytime

    Start on shared, upgrade later when the site grows — we handle the migration.

When cloud earns its keep
Fast.
Cloud (upgrade) Quick
Shared (default) Solid

Shared hosting handles most sites well. Cloud is the upgrade for higher-traffic, speed-critical sites where every second matters.

What's included, explained

Plain language for every line on the plan.

Managed hosting & SSL

Your site is hosted on shared infrastructure with an encrypted connection — secure, reliable, and yours. Upgrade to dedicated cloud for +$29/mo if speed matters.

Software updates

WordPress core, theme, and plugins kept current — out-of-date software is the most common way sites get hacked.

Staging-tested updates

Updates are applied to a private copy first, so anything that might break is caught before it touches the live site.

Weekly backups

A full copy of your site is saved every week, ready to restore quickly if anything ever goes wrong.

Uptime monitoring

Your site is checked around the clock — if it goes down, we know before your customers do.

Security scanning

Regular scans watch for malware and vulnerabilities, so threats are caught early.

Change requests

Your monthly allowance of content edits — text, photos, hours, prices, and blog posts.

Core Web Vitals tuning

Ongoing speed and stability optimization against Google’s performance benchmarks. (Growth.)

What counts as a change request

Edits are included. New projects are quoted.

A change request is a small content update to your existing site. Bigger work is handled as a fixed-price add-on, so you always know the cost before it starts.
