## The same people, every time

You are not routed to a queue. The people answering your tickets are the ones who
know your build, your integrations, and the reason that odd redirect exists. Three
time zones of coverage and a name on every reply.

### What's included:

###  Proactive maintenance updates

Reminders when core, plugins, and themes need updating, plus the vulnerability alerts
you would rather hear from us than from a scanner.

###  Responsive support

On standby for the bug, the broken form, or the tweak you need today. Urgent means
a two-hour first response, not a queue.

###  Performance improvements

Page speed and load time monitored and tuned, so the slow page gets caught before
your traffic does.

###  Backups & recovery

Automatic backups run at the host level. We handle manual backups before major changes
and restores when you need them, so a bad change is something you roll back, not
scramble over.

###  Content & page updates

Text, images, media, new pages and posts. Send it in and see it live, without waiting
on a developer you do not have.

###  Accessibility reviews

A structured audit of how people using assistive technology move through your site,
with a prioritized list of what to fix first.

### The GLIDE Process

Submit ticket

Send it by email, the support portal, or phone. Every request becomes a ticket you
can track from open to closed.

Triage & priority

We review it and set a priority based on real business impact, from a site that’s
down to a nice-to-have. Urgent means a first response within two hours, and everything
gets one within a work day.

Estimate & approval

For anything beyond a quick fix, we scope the work and send an estimate. We start
when you approve, not before.

Fix & QA

We make the change and test it before it goes live. Urgent issues wrap within four
hours, and everything else resolves on a clear, priority-based timeline.

Monthly report

Each invoice comes with an itemized billable-time report, so you can see exactly
where every hour went.
