// In short

Do you need a store care plan?

Choose the Store Care Plan if your WooCommerce store takes real orders and nobody tests updates, backs up order data or checks payments each month. For a plain business website without a store, the Website Care Plan is enough; if the store is broken right now, start with Store Migration & Rescue. MD Shamim Mahmud looks after WooCommerce stores month to month with tested updates, backups, checkout tests, security checks and a report.

// Who it’s for

Who store care is for

A store is more fragile than a normal website. A plugin update can break the checkout, and a lost order is lost money.

  • Stores taking daily orders

    Every hour the checkout is down costs you sales.

  • Stores afraid of updates

    Updates are skipped because the last one broke something.

  • Several payment methods

    Gateways like bKash, SSLCommerz or Stripe need checking after changes.

  • Busy owners

    You want to sell and ship, not maintain plugins.

// What’s included

What’s included every month

Both plans include everything below. Store care + changes adds time for changes and deeper checks.

  • Tested updates

    Updates tried on staging first, then applied to the live store.

  • Checkout tests

    Agreed test orders through your payment methods after updates.

  • Order-safe backups

    Frequent backups so recent orders aren’t lost in a restore.

  • Email checks

    Order and account emails tested for delivery.

  • Security monitoring

    Malware scans, firewall and login protection.

  • Uptime checks

    Alerts if the store goes down.

  • Speed check

    Shop, product and checkout pages checked monthly.

  • Monthly report

    What was updated, tested and fixed, in plain English.

Store care questions

What store owners ask before handing over maintenance.

Still have a question? Ask me directly

How much does WooCommerce maintenance cost?

Store care starts from $99 a month and Store care + changes from $169 a month (USD), about 30% below what comparable freelancers typically charge. Large stores and several stores are quoted after a free call. There is no setup fee.

How do payments work?

Each month is paid upfront, with an invoice and a receipt. There is no long contract: you can stop with 30 days’ notice.

How do you test updates without breaking my store?

Updates are tried on a staging copy first. If something breaks there, the update is held until it’s fixed, and your live store isn’t touched.

Do you place real test orders?

Yes, the ones agreed with you, such as a card or bKash payment that is then refunded, or a cash-on-delivery order that is cancelled.

What if the store goes down?

Uptime monitoring alerts me, and restoring the store is part of the plan.

Do I keep control of the store?

Yes. Hosting, domain, licences and payment accounts stay in your name.

Is this different from the Website Care Plan?

Yes. Store care adds staging tests, checkout tests, order-safe backups and payment and email checks.

Can I cancel?

Yes. Plans are month to month; give 30 days’ notice and you get a final backup and report.
