What do “Small Website Tasks” cover?
Small website tasks cover a variety of services, including content and image changes on the website, plugin setup and installation, changing plugin settings, theme design & CSS tweaks, adding code snippets via hooks, adding tracking codes etc (such as Google Analytics etc), adding a new simple page with the contents you provided (or copy of existing page template), formatting a page, general optimisations and more! Essentially, any small WordPress task that would fit within about 30 minutes per task is usually acceptable, as long as it does not require advanced custom coding work.
Small website tasks do not cover graphics design work, advanced SEO work, advanced design customisations, editing custom code, custom coding of new functionality (plugins, themes etc), PSD to WordPress, or anything that leads to design and/or development of a new website.
However, if you are on the Enterprise plan, then your website tasks can include advanced SEO work, working with custom code, and custom coding of new functionality.
What if I require more advanced tasks?
If you require more advanced support or development work, for anything that’s not covered by small website tasks, you can purchase additional development hours at our hourly rate from £70 + VAT per hour.
Do you support custom sites?
The “Enterprise” care plan offers support for advanced custom websites, which includes working with custom code (themes/plugins) via the “small website tasks” for small changes and fixes.
How many tasks can I submit at once?
Although you can submit as many tasks as you wish at once via our support tool, you will have your own dedicated single developer that will work on them, one task at a time in order of submission. We’d usually suggest submitting no more than 2 – 3 different tasks at once, to keep things more organised.
How long does it take to complete tasks?
We will usually be able to complete tasks within 1 business day. In most cases within a few business hours, and on the other hand, in some cases it may take a little longer (1 – 3 days) if the task is a little more complex, or if we are a little busier than usual.
How many tasks can you complete per day?
We can usually complete roughly around 1 – 2 tasks per business day (on average), per website, depending on the size of the tasks. We may be able to complete more than this if they are just quick edits.
