Questions about WordPress retainers

WordPress Retainer FAQs

Does a retainer include website maintenance?

No. A retainer covers development, SEO and strategy. Updates, backups and monitoring remain under website maintenance.

Can the development and SEO mix change?

Yes. The allocation remains fixed for the quarter, while the discipline mix is reviewed against the roadmap.

Do we need a retainer if we only need occasional changes?

Probably not. A fixed project is usually less expensive than capacity that has no recurring roadmap to support.

Can we work with our internal team?

Yes. We can work with your internal marketing, communications, IT or development team. The roadmap defines ownership, review points and the work delivered by each team.
