Why care plans matter

Why ongoing care makes life easier

A care plan is not just about keeping plugins updated. It gives you a more reliable way to look after your website over time, with less firefighting, less back and forth, and more confidence that the important things are being handled.

Less firefighting

Problems are easier to spot earlier, and the website is less likely to be left until something goes wrong.

More continuity

You are not starting from scratch each time. The same team supports the website over time and gets to know how it works.

A calmer setup

Instead of reacting to issues one by one, you have a clearer, steadier way to keep the website looked after month after month.

For many businesses, a care plan becomes the simpler option once the website starts to matter day to day.

Managed hosting

Managed hosting levels

Hosted care plans include a managed hosting level matched to the plan, with infrastructure designed for different website sizes, traffic levels, and demands.

All hosted options are fully managed by Newt Labs, with faster infrastructure, stronger security, and room to scale as your website grows.

Hosting resource	Fully Managed Cloud Hosting	Higher-Spec Managed Hosting	High-Capacity Managed Hosting
Memory (RAM)	2GB	4–8GB	16–32GB
CPU	1 Premium AMD CPU	2–4 Premium AMD CPUs	8 Premium AMD CPUs
Storage	50GB NVMe SSD	80–160GB NVMe SSD	320–400GB NVMe SSD
Data transfer	2TB per month	4–5TB per month	6–10TB per month
Estimated monthly visits	~50,000	~100,000–200,000	~300,000–600,000

Visit estimates are guidelines. Actual usage depends on page size, caching, traffic patterns, and bot activity.

Hosted plan features marked with an asterisk in the comparison above are included only when managed hosting is added to the relevant care plan.

Scope and clarity

Clear support, with sensible boundaries

Our care plans are built to keep your website updated, supported, and properly looked after over time. That includes the kind of routine monthly care that helps prevent problems, keeps things running smoothly, and gives you a more dependable support setup.

Some work naturally sits outside routine care, such as larger one-off tasks, bigger changes, or wider project work. When that happens, we will point you to the right route clearly rather than leaving things vague.

1

What care plans are designed for

Ongoing monthly care, regular checks, routine support, and a steadier long-term setup.

2

When a different route may make more sense

Larger one-off changes, broader development work, or project-based tasks that go beyond routine care.

3

How we handle it

We keep things clear, explain what fits within the plan, and guide you when something needs a different route.

See Scope of Service

The goal is clarity, not catch-outs. If something sits outside routine care, we will tell you clearly and help you find the best next step.

Joined-up support

Want a simpler long-term setup?

A care plan gives you ongoing support and monthly care. For some businesses, it works even better when hosting is looked after by the same team too.

When support, maintenance, and hosting are joined up, there is less back and forth, fewer loose ends, and a clearer path when something needs attention.

1

One team, fewer handoffs

You are not left chasing different providers to work out who is handling what.

2

A cleaner support setup

Hosting and care under one roof can make the website easier to manage over time.

3

A stronger long-term option

It is not the right fit for everyone, but for some businesses it becomes the simplest way to keep everything better looked after.

Explore Hosting

You do not need to host with us to choose a care plan. This is simply an option for businesses that want a more joined-up setup.

Not ready for monthly care?

Not ready for a monthly plan yet?

That is completely fine. Many businesses start with one specific issue, fix, or change before deciding whether ongoing care makes sense.

If you need help now but are not ready to commit to monthly support, you can still get the website moving in the right direction and come back to a care plan later if it feels like the better fit.

Trust and proof

Trusted by businesses that want dependable long-term support

Choosing a care plan is not just about features. It is about knowing your website is in safe hands, the support feels clear, and the long-term value makes sense.

“We have been with Newt Labs for a few years now and it's one of the best business decisions we have made. Their Word Press Care Plan consisting of maintenance, security and support gives us total peace of mind; and their willingness to go above and beyond is impressive. I cannot fault this company.”

5/5 Google review

Patsy Hanson, Vemco Consulting

“Newt Labs have been looking after our websites and hosting them for several years. I can't speak highly enough of them. Having worked with other web companies and not been very impressed I was delighted to discover one which gave such great customer service and had such good attention to detail. Quick to respond and definitely know their stuff.”

5/5 Google review

Diana Ruthven, Barrow Cadbury Trust

“The team at newt labs have been nothing but incredible when a site I was working with was largely abandoned by its ongoing host and admin. Newt took over a long standing legacy wordpress site, mirgrated it into their hosting with incomplete details, then updated, maintained, and solved a bunch of issues from bots capacity and compatibility that were crippling the site. Fantastic service, great team, do not nesitate to contact Newt if you're in a bind.”
