Most WordPress sites rely on a handful of premium plugins, and those plugins renew automatically every year. When a vendor raises prices or a security issue turns up, someone needs to be paying attention.
That’s what we do for our Web Care clients. When Nexcess recently announced that The Events Calendar’s premium add-ons are moving into a bundle costing about $350 per site per year, we audited every site we manage the same day and personally contacted every affected client, months before any renewal hits.
As an independent company, our only job is to look out for our clients, and we keep close tabs on all the software running on our servers, for both security and cost.
