Today, I want to announce our new affordable WordPress Maintenance packages, which are designed to help business owners focus on building their business, rather than fussing with their WordPress site.
WordPress is our favorite content management system because it emphasizes publishing content, which is important for SEO. But a WordPress site requires maintenance. This includes upgrading plugins, themes, and even the core software every so often.
Many of our clients use WordPress sites and we developed a system and toolset that make our day-to-day operations more efficient, and now we want to extend that service to WordPress users who prefer to have some help, but aren’t looking for our other SEO services.

My Favorite WordPress Maintenance Features
The two features that set our WordPress Maintenance and support packages apart from our competitors are that we install and configure WordPress SEO by Yoast and configure Goals and Filters in Google Analytics.
WordPress SEO by Yoast is the SEO plugin for WordPress, and the plugin’s Meta Box makes basic SEO a cinch for all users. However, there are dozens of settings and options, and it might be tough for a casual user to setup, or might not know what’s best for their situation. Our WordPress Maintenance package includes the installation and configuration of the plugin to ensure that your site has the best settings to set you up for success with the search engines.
Installing Google Analytics just isn’t enough. We setup one Goal to track in Google Analytics so you can see how well your website works whether it completing transaction or generating a lead. We also add additional filtering to make sure that traffic from your own computer isn’t tracked, and legitimate users are.
