Tattoo - WordPress Maintenance
A booking form that breaks on a Saturday afternoon is lost revenue, not a minor bug. We provide managed WordPress hosting and maintenance built around the parts of a tattoo shop site that actually matter: booking integration, gallery performance, and security.
Why it matters
Four ways a neglected tattoo shop site costs you bookings.
Plugin updates and API changes on platforms like Booksy, Square Appointments, or Acuity Scheduling can silently break your booking connection. A form that looks fine but doesn't sync means missed appointments you may not notice for days.
Portfolio galleries are image-heavy by nature. Without ongoing optimization, load times creep up over time as new work gets added, and slow-loading galleries push visitors away before they see your best pieces.
Sites collecting intake forms, health screening data, and deposit payments are a meaningful target. Outdated plugins and themes are the most common way WordPress sites get compromised, and a breach involving client health data is a serious problem.
Digital consent and intake forms need to work every time, without exception. A broken form submission means a client shows up without a signed release on file, which is a real compliance issue, not just a technical inconvenience.
Seven core components of ongoing WordPress care for tattoo shop websites.
Updates
Every update tested on staging before it touches your live site, so a routine update never breaks your booking flow.
Backups
Full daily backups stored off-site, so your portfolio, client data, and booking history are always recoverable.
Uptime
Continuous uptime checks alert our team the moment your site goes down, so booking pages come back online fast.
Security
Regular malware scans and hardening measures protect the client data flowing through your intake and consent forms.
Performance
Ongoing image optimization and caching keep image-heavy portfolio galleries loading fast as you add new work.
Booking Integration
We check that your booking and intake form connections are working correctly after every update, not just when something breaks.
Plans
Three tiers on top of managed hosting. Care plans are scoped on the intake call so you're not paying for a package that doesn't match your site.
Core
Essential coverage
Pro
Most multi-artist shops
Priority
High-volume & multi-location studios
Managed hosting starts at $99/mo.

Good to know
Core covers the essentials: updates, backups, uptime monitoring, and security. Pro adds booking integration monitoring and gallery performance checks, which most multi-artist shops need given how much revenue runs through their booking system. Priority adds a faster response SLA and readiness checks ahead of flash sales or guest artist events, built for high-volume or multi-location studios.
Managed hosting starts at $99/mo, billed every six months with no onboarding fee. Care plan pricing on top of that is scoped to your specific site during the intake call, since plugin count, integration complexity, and how often your site needs attention all vary by studio. We'll walk through the right tier for you before you commit to anything.
Yes, on the Pro and Priority plans. We check that your connection to Booksy, Square Appointments, Acuity Scheduling, Vagaro, or whatever platform you use is functioning correctly after every update, since a silent booking failure is one of the costliest things that can happen to a tattoo shop site.
Uptime monitoring alerts our team the moment your site goes offline, and we get to work restoring it. Priority plan clients get a faster response SLA for these situations. We treat downtime for a booking-dependent business as an urgent issue, not a queue ticket.
Yes. As you add artists, launch a merch store, or expand to a second location, we can move you to a higher tier that matches your site's complexity. Just reach out to your account contact and we'll handle the transition.
