BASIC M&C is VVRapid’s entry-level plan for basic website maintenance. It gives smaller sites essential monthly care so you can relax while we keep things secure, updated and backed up.

 

Basic website maintenance for smaller sites

This plan is ideal if:

  • You run a small website that does not change often.
  • You want someone to handle updates, security and backups for you.
  • You do not need daily support, staging or heavy performance work.

 

BASIC M&C focuses on basic website maintenance so your site stays healthy without a big monthly cost.

 

What’s included in BASIC M&C

With BASIC M&C, VVRapid provides ongoing basic website maintenance with these attributes:

  • Core updates: Monthly – we apply core updates once a month to keep your site current.
  • Security monitoring: Basic – we keep an eye out for obvious threats and issues.
  • Backups: Monthly – your site is backed up every month as a safety net.
  • Uptime monitoring: Optional – we can enable simple uptime checks on request.
  • Performance checks: Light – we look for basic performance issues and fix simple wins.
  • Content changes: Up to 30 minutes per month for small edits and updates.
  • Malware scan: Included – regular scans to detect common malware.
  • Staging site: No – changes are applied directly on the live site.
  • Reports: On request – we can summarise what was done when you ask.
  • Support: Email support for questions and small requests.
  • Ideal for: Small sites that need light, essential care.

 

This basic website maintenance plan is built to give small websites just enough protection and attention to stay safe and usable.

 

Typical tasks covered by BASIC M&C

Each month, BASIC M&C might include:

  • Running core WordPress updates and minor plugin updates.
  • Checking for obvious security warnings or odd behaviour.
  • Running a malware scan and dealing with small issues.
  • Taking a fresh backup and storing it safely.
  • Making a few small content edits, such as text tweaks or image swaps.

 

For most small brochure sites, this level of basic website maintenance is enough to keep the site in good shape.

 

How the BASIC M&C process works

  1. Onboarding and site review
    We start by reviewing your site, hosting and current setup. We make sure we have secure access and understand how your small site is built.
  2. Monthly update cycle
    Once a month, we log in, run updates and perform basic website maintenance tasks. This includes core updates, light performance checks and a malware scan.
  3. Backups and safety net
    We create a monthly backup so you can recover quickly if something goes wrong. This backup is part of the safety net that comes with BASIC M&C.
  4. Minor content changes
    You can request small content updates each month, up to 30 minutes in total. This might be a change to opening hours, prices, text, images or a simple new section.
  5. Optional uptime monitoring
    If you want, we can add basic uptime monitoring so we know if your site goes down. With basic website maintenance, this is an optional extra, not full alerting.
  6. Email support when you need it
    If you have questions or small issues, you can contact us by email. We handle requests that fit inside the time and scope of the BASIC M&C plan.

 

When BASIC M&C is the right choice – and when to upgrade

Choose BASIC M&C when:

  • You run a small website with low to moderate traffic.
  • You only need basic website maintenance each month.
  • You do not need daily backups, staging or deep performance work.

 

If your site is more active, gets more traffic or is more important to your business, you may want to move up to STANDARD M&C. That plan adds weekly updates, hardened security, daily backups, included uptime monitoring, staging and more content time each month, which suits most business sites.

 

If your website is mission-critical, high-traffic or revenue-generating, PREMIUM M&C is the best fit. It gives you proactive care with advanced monitoring, deep optimisation, more content time and priority support.

 

BASIC M&C is a simple, safe starting point: a basic website maintenance plan that keeps smaller sites secure, updated and backed up every month.

FAQs

How often do you do updates on BASIC M&C?

BASIC M&C runs on a monthly update cycle. We apply WordPress core updates and minor plugin updates once per month to keep your site current without overcomplicating things.

Are backups included, and how often are they taken?

Yes. BASIC M&C includes a monthly backup as a safety net, so you have a restore point if something goes wrong.

Does BASIC M&C include security and malware checks?

Yes. The plan includes basic security monitoring and regular malware scans to catch common issues and keep smaller sites safer.

What types of changes are included in the 30 minutes of content updates?

Typical requests include small text edits, swapping images, updating opening hours, changing prices, tweaking contact details, or adding a short section to an existing page (as long as it fits within the monthly time allowance).

Is uptime monitoring included on BASIC M&C?

Uptime monitoring is optional on BASIC M&C. If you want it enabled, we can add simple uptime checks, but it’s not the same as full alerting and proactive response included in higher tiers.

When should I upgrade from BASIC M&C to STANDARD or PREMIUM?

Upgrade to STANDARD M&C if your site is more active, gets more traffic, or needs weekly updates, daily backups and staging. Upgrade to PREMIUM M&C if the site is mission-critical or revenue-generating and you need advanced security, deeper optimisation, more content time and priority support.
