WordPress website maintenance checklist
The maintenance system that keeps your site healthy, secure, and stress-free.
How does it help?
This isn’t just a static list – it’s an editable system (okay, okay, it’s a spreadsheet) that helps you stay organized and track what’s been done and what you need to do next. Catch issues before they become problems while building a reliable process for protecting and managing your website.
Who is this for?
Website Managers
Stop tackling maintenance randomly. This is your ultimate checklist that you can customize to suit your personal processes and preferences.
Internal Teams
Too many cooks in the kitchen can lead to a giant mess. Assign maintenance duties to relevant teams or org members.
Anyone
If you’ve ever said, “Wait…did we update that plugin?” then this template is for you.

Best Practices
- Make sure the document is access-controlled
- Store sensitive notes (like passwords or credentials) in a password manager, not the checklist itself
- Use the frequency filters to match the level of care your site needs
