InkySitesInkySites vs WordPress care plans
A WordPress care plan keeps your existing site patched, backed up, and secure. What it doesn't do is make it new. It maintains whatever's there, however old, and it's WordPress only. InkySites redesigns your site first, then hosts and maintains it, for a flat $29 a month. The popular unlimited-edits care plan is around $179 a month, and that's before hosting and without the redesign.

Questions people ask.
Do I need a WordPress care plan if I use InkySites?
No. We host and maintain the redesigned site ourselves - backing it up and monitoring it for you - so there's no separate WordPress install to patch, back up, or secure, and no separate hosting bill. The flat $29 a month covers hosting, changes, and upkeep together.
My site is on WordPress. Can InkySites take it over?
We redesign from your live site and host the new version, so you stop paying for WordPress hosting and a care plan. If you have a complex WordPress setup with WooCommerce and custom plugins, a WordPress-native care plan like WP Buffs may suit you better, and we'll say so.
Why is a care plan so much more than $29 a month?
Care plans bill for human WordPress work by the month, and plans that include edits start around $179 a month (WP Buffs Protect), with hosting usually separate. InkySites is a flat $29 because the redesign, hosting, and changes are one bundled service, not separate line items.
