How we are different
Written response SLA
24h Care, 4h Care Plus, 1h Commerce, 15 min Scale. In writing on every invoice, not buried in chat.
30 day money back
Cancel inside 30 days for a full refund. No retention call, no exit survey, no friction.
Named lead engineer
From Care Plus, the same senior engineer owns your site. You will know their name and meet them on Zoom.
Plain English invoicing
Every report says what we did, why, and what is next. No jargon, no upsell traps.
"I compared three care providers head to head before picking WebCare. The SLA was the only one I could quote back at them in writing. Six months in, zero downtime and the same engineer every month."

Honest answers

Valet is genuinely strong, but they are priced for larger publishers and ecommerce brands. For SMB sites the minimum is usually overkill.
Most sites are onboarded inside 48 hours. We take a full backup, run a baseline audit, set up monitoring, and brief you in plain English before we touch anything live. Zero downtime, no missed emails, no broken links.
Every plan is covered by a 30 day money back guarantee in plain language. Cancel inside the first thirty days for any reason and you get a full refund. No forms, no friction.
No. We keep your URLs, redirects, sitemaps, and schema intact. We also baseline your Google Search Console before the move so we can prove ranking stability after.
Senior WordPress engineers based in the US and Pakistan, on call 24 by 7. From the $199 Care Plus plan, you get a named lead engineer who owns your site, replies on first name terms, and stays the same person month after month.
No. Emergency response is included in every care plan. If your site goes down at 2 AM, we are already on it before you wake up. No surprise invoices.
Yes. Monthly plans cancel any time with one email. Annual plans cancel inside the 30 day window for a full refund, and after that on a prorated basis. No retention loops, no forced calls.
We benchmark ourselves against every serious option. Pick another and read it.
