Your website, looked after. And you can see the work.

Ask for changes and follow them on a live board. Underneath, your site is backed up, watched, updated and secure.

  • Every request on a live board
  • Backups are 14 daily, 8 weekly, 12 monthly
  • 1-hour reply on Critical
  • Errors tracked on every page

Most sites are backed up. Few have ever been restored.

A backup nobody has restored is a guess. We test-restore yours before we touch anything, then on a schedule.

  • The site went down

    You heard it from a customer, and nobody knew if last night's backup worked.

  • An update broke it

    A plugin updated itself overnight and the booking form stopped working.

  • Your developer went quiet

    Whoever built it has moved on, and nobody else knows how it fits together.

Everything we do for your site, on one screen.

Each panel is a piece of your dashboard, shown with example data. When we do the work, it shows up there.

Watched

Uptime checks watch your pages and SSL certificate. When a check fails, we know before your customers do.

Backed up every night

Files and database, stored off your server, with copies going back a year.

Restored, not assumed

We restore your site to a test server before changing anything, then on a schedule, and log how long it took.

Updated, carefully

Core, plugin and theme updates, with your key pages checked after. Anything that breaks is held back.

What changed

Every update run, when it went live and what we held back.

Fortnightly updates, 4 applied, 1 held back

WooCommerce 9.4.0, Yoast SEO 23.6, Contact Form 6.0.3 and the cache plugin 3.18.0 passed on the test copy and went live at 22:26. Booking plugin 4.2.0 broke the date picker on the copy, so it was held back and the live site kept 4.1.4.

Your host's backup vs solve.ly

Hosts sell a backup for a few pounds a month. This is what a plan adds.

  • Backups

    Your host: A copy of your server, never tested.

    solve.ly: Nightly backups kept for a year, stored off your server and restored on a test server to prove they work.

  • Updates

    Your host: You update plugins yourself and hope nothing breaks.

    solve.ly: Updates tested on a copy first, and held back if they break something.

  • Problems

    Your host: You hear about them from your customers.

    solve.ly: Uptime, SSL and error checks, so we know first.

  • People

    Your host: No one to ask.

    solve.ly: Named people, a live request board and a reply time we commit to.

In every plan

  • Nightly backups kept for a year (14 daily, 8 weekly, 12 monthly)
  • Uptime and SSL checks
  • Error tracking
  • Critical security fixes
  • Core, plugin and theme updates, tested on a copy first
