EMERGENCIES WE FIX

The Tuesday-morning five-alarm list.

If your site is currently doing one of these things, we’ve probably fixed it before lunch a hundred times. Triage starts the moment you send the URL.

White Screen of Death

PHP fatal error, memory exhaustion, or a half-dead plugin taking the whole front end with it.

WHAT MAINTENANCE COVERS

Twelve disciplines, one calm site.

A WordPress site is a moving target—core, themes, plugins, hosting, security, performance, and AI search are all changing every quarter. Our care plans cover the operational layer so you can focus on the business.

01

Core & plugin updates

Weekly updates against a staging mirror first, then promoted to production with rollback ready.

02

Off-site backups

Daily encrypted backups to S3-class storage with 30-day retention and tested restore drills.

03

Security hardening

WAF rules, login rate limits, 2FA enforcement, file integrity monitoring, and SSH key auth.

04

Malware monitoring

Hourly scans against Wordfence + custom signatures, with auto-quarantine and human review.

05

Uptime monitoring

Multi-region pings every 60 seconds with PagerDuty escalation—outages caught before customers notice.

06

Performance tuning

Database optimization, image compression, cache tuning, and Core Web Vitals tracking.

07

SSL & DNS

Certificate renewals, DNS hygiene, CAA records, and HSTS preload eligibility maintained.

08

Hosting & CDN

Managed migration to enterprise hosts, Cloudflare WAF, and CDN cache rules tuned to your stack.

09

Bug fixes & small dev

Layout glitches, form issues, and that weird thing in Safari—handled within your monthly hours.

10

Compliance

WCAG 2.2 AA reviews, ADA scans, GDPR cookie consent, and privacy policy upkeep.

11

SEO & AI hygiene

Schema validation, sitemap audits, broken-link sweeps, and llms.txt maintenance.

12

Monthly reporting

One-page summary of updates shipped, threats blocked, performance trend, and uptime score.

EMERGENCY PROCESS

Four steps. One calm site.

From the moment you send the URL, we follow the same four-step playbook. No guessing, no panic, no “have you tried turning it off and on again.”

STEP 01

Triage

15-minute call. We pull error logs, snapshot the site, and confirm scope. You’ll know what’s broken and what it’ll take.

First 60 minutes
STEP 02

Stabilize

Backup, isolate the failing component, and bring the site to a working state—even if it means temporary maintenance mode.

Hours 1–3
STEP 03

Restore & harden

Root-cause fix, malware cleanup if needed, security hardening, and a controlled relaunch with monitoring active.

Hours 3–24
STEP 04

Document

Incident report, what changed, what to watch for, and recommendations to prevent the same fire next quarter.

Within 48 hours
STACK WE SUPPORT

WordPress — and the universe around it.

We’re WordPress specialists, but emergencies don’t happen in a vacuum. We work fluently across the full operational stack a modern WP site actually runs on—so when the symptom is on the front end, we know where the cause might really live.

If you’re running it, chances are we’ve fixed it before. If we haven’t, we’ll tell you that on the triage call instead of sending an invoice.

BEYOND WORDPRESS

WordPress is where we started. Not where we stop.

WordPress runs roughly 43% of the web—so it’s where most of our emergency calls originate. But modern brands rarely live on a single stack anymore. Marketing sites on WordPress, storefronts on Shopify, docs on Webflow, customer portals on Next.js, internal tools on a custom Rails app—all of it living behind one DNS record. When something breaks, it’s usually not where the symptom appeared.

We architect, audit, and rescue across the full modern web stack. WordPress emergencies are our specialty, but the same disciplined triage playbook—snapshot, isolate, restore, document—works on any site, any framework, any host. If your stack runs on the public internet, chances are we’ve worked on it before.

CMS

WordPress · Drupal · Craft

Classic CMS platforms with plugin ecosystems, custom post types, and the legacy code paths that come with them.

HEADLESS

Strapi · Sanity · Contentful

API-first content backends paired with React, Vue, or Svelte front ends. We debug both halves.

JAMSTACK

Next.js · Astro · Gatsby

Static-site generators, ISR, edge functions, and the Vercel/Netlify deploy pipelines that run them.

COMMERCE

Shopify · BigCommerce · Woo

Theme bugs, checkout failures, app conflicts, and Liquid debugging across hosted and self-hosted stores.

SITE BUILDERS

Webflow · Squarespace · Wix

Hosted builder migrations, custom-code injections, and the export-to-real-stack moves teams eventually need.

CUSTOM APPS

Laravel · Rails · Django

Bespoke applications with their own deploy pipelines, queue workers, and the late-night incidents that follow.

STATIC + EDGE

Cloudflare Pages · S3

Edge-deployed sites, Workers KV, R2 buckets, and the DNS-level fixes that bring a CDN-fronted site back.

INFRASTRUCTURE

AWS · GCP · DigitalOcean

VPS recovery, EC2 misconfigurations, RDS connection storms, and the IAM tangles that lock teams out.

QUESTIONS

What clients actually ask.

How fast can you start on an emergency?

Triage calls happen same-day during business hours and within four hours on retainer. Most fixes start within an hour of the triage call ending. If your site is currently down, send the URL and the words “it’s down”—we’ll prioritize.

Can you fix a site you didn’t build?

Yes. The majority of our emergency work is on sites built by other agencies, freelancers, or in-house teams. We don’t need access to original source—just admin (or SFTP) and DNS. We document everything we change so the next person on the file isn’t guessing.

What if my site has been hacked and is blacklisted?

We clean the malware, request review with Google Safe Browsing and McAfee, harden the site against the same attack vector, and follow up until the warning clears. Most blacklist removals complete within 72 hours of cleanup.

Do I have to switch hosts to work with you?

No. We work with whatever host you’re on—GoDaddy, Bluehost, SiteGround, Kinsta, WP Engine, AWS, your nephew’s VPS, all of it. We may recommend a migration if the host is the actual cause of the emergencies, but it’s never a precondition.

How is pricing structured?

Tailored. To your scope. No flat-rate menus. Emergency rescues are scoped against the diagnostic findings; care plans are scoped against site complexity, traffic volume, and required SLA. Most monthly retainers fit a clear, predictable budget.

Do you handle WooCommerce / membership sites?

Yes. Commerce sites are some of our most common care-plan clients—they can’t afford downtime, and the plugin matrix is unforgiving. We’re fluent in WooCommerce, MemberPress, Easy Digital Downloads, and the payment-gateway integrations around them.

⚠ SITE CURRENTLY DOWN? START WITH A 15-MIN TRIAGE.

Get the fire out. Then keep it that way.

Most WordPress emergencies are recoverable in hours, not days—if you start the triage now. Fifteen minutes will tell us, and you, exactly what we’re working with.
