For Solopreneurs & Small Teams Running WordPress Sites…

Be On A First-Name Basis With Your “Web Guy”

No language issues with offshore teams. No AI chatbots. No more of the confusions and wasted time trying to figure it all out by yourself. Just a direct line to the person who manages your website.

Concierge is about simplifying everything about your WordPress site. I will provide the best tools, the best platform, the best premium plugins – and my personal support – so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

Explore Plans Talk With Me First

Fast, secure hosting + proactive site care included on every plan.

For solopreneurs who want reliability, clarity, and a real partner in their corner.

If you run your business on WordPress and you’re done wrestling with tech, guessing at fixes, second-guessing hosting support, or losing time to things you shouldn’t be doing… this is for you.

It’s for creators, coaches, membership site owners, and small teams who want a website they can depend on — and a real human partner who knows their setup, their goals, and their name.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by updates, confused by hosting issues, or just plain tired of Googling your way through problems… you’re not alone. Your website shouldn’t drain your time or your confidence.

This is for people who want their site handled by someone they trust — someone who will take ownership, keep things running smoothly, and be there when you need help.

Concierge simplifies everything about owning and running your WordPress site.

All plans include…

Concierge Cloud Hosting

Hosting which surpasses even the most expensive “managed” WordPress hosting by big-name hosts. Specifically configured to Concierge clients – and ONLY Concierge clients. This isn’t typical shared hosting.

Proactive Monitoring

All sites are monitored 24/7 by my automated systems. But, I am also proactively monitoring site and server performance – often making tweaks to optimize things without you even knowing. I want top-level performance just as much as you do.

Security & Tuned Firewall

Your site gets a safety net. Daily malware and security scans and immediate fix if any is detected. You’ll also get a tuned web application firewall… serving as a shield between your server and hackers/bots.

Daily Backups

Backups are fully taken care of for you – with multiple layers of redundancy. We use BlogVault as our first layer, then multiple layers of backups beneath that – stored in multiple locations.

Email Deliverability

Most web hosts either handle email delivery poorly… or not at all. This means emails sent by your WordPress site may – or may not – actually make it to the inbox. I use Postmark for high-end email deliverability for all clients – automatically.

ONEPass Membership Included

A ONEPass membership to Blog Marketing Academy is included… giving you access to all courses, all tutorials, all training videos as they are released so you can also be self-empowered with your site as a DIYer. If you want. 😜

Automatic Image Optimization

Most web hosts (even the good ones) leave this up to you. I consider this mission-critical for site performance. So, I will handle it for you, powered by ShortPixel.

“First Name Basis” Support

In all our communications about your site, you’ll know exactly who you’re dealing with. We’ll get to know each other. I treat all my clients like friends. And that’s exactly how I want you to feel.

Weekly Updates

Every Monday (typically), your website will be fully updated, including all plugins, themes and WordPress core. Regular updates are a core component of security and reliability – so it is done automatically. No need for you to worry about it.

You get a stable, secure, professional WordPress foundation — without the stress or guesswork.


The Core (most popular) and Platinum plans expand what you can do – and how much I can do with you.

Access To Licensed Premium Plugins

Save money on subscription and support fees and get access to a bundle of thoroughly tested plugins for building and managing your site. You’ll have a full stack of premium tools… at no additional cost to you. See the current toolkit.

Development & Call Discounts

If you need any project work or ANY direct help with your site that goes beyond the scope of your plan, you get an automatic discount on all purchases of Anytime Credits. Credits can be used for work on your website or 1-on-1 calls.

Email Marketing

Expand your high-deliverablity site emails with higher volume – even including support for email marketing by in-house CRMs like FluentCRM. I’ll help you manage deliverability and handle the nerdy stuff. Volume tiers apply.

Email Reports

Stay updates with what’s going on without the hassle of checking yourself. I’ll send you a monthly report on what’s happening with your site, and optionally a monthly traffic report of your site’s analytics.

Priority Support

Faster response times and deeper involvement for Platinum clients. Tasks for Platinum are always at the front of the queue.

Traffic Analytics

Google Analytics isn’t really free. They “spy” on your site’s data for their own purposes. As a client, you’ll be able to use Fathom Analytics (normally $14/mo). Includes a traffic dashboard within WordPress and weekly email reports. Fully GDPR compliant and privacy friendly.

Legal Documents

Get your site’s privacy policy, terms of service and other legal documents created dynamically based on your needs. Legally compliant. Powered by Termageddon. Included with Platinum, available as an add-on for Core.

Private Collaboration Area

Escape the clutter of our inbox with a private collaboration area powered by Basecamp. We’ll keep things organized via messages, tasks, file storage and a private chat. All fully private. Can also invite team members if needed.

Enhanced Partnership

Platinum clients get development time included every month – without any need for credits. Great for consistent site improvements, regular “checks” on things, or even private strategy calls.

These plans turn Concierge into a more fully managed, proactive partnership — ideal for dynamic or growing sites.

  • He’s been my rock.

    David is awesome, couldn’t ask for anyone better to help me with my projects and business. I trust him 100% I’ve been in his realm for many years using his courses and in 2024 knew he was the one to tackle one of our biggest projects to date in 20 years in business! … and he’s been my rock. He’s easy and so gentle with my total tech-unsaviness. He gives you input, is responsive, knowledgeable, genuine and a family man, what else do you want?!

How Concierge Works

1

Choose Your Plan

You’ll select which Concierge plan best fits your goals, your site and your budget. If you’re unsure, you can book a Roadmap Call and we can talk about it first.

2

Onboarding

You will fill out a quick onboarding form to answer some questions about your site. If you want to use Concierge Cloud hosting, I will migrate your site for you and get everything fully setup and tweaked. I will also ensure your site is fully backed up, set up for ongoing maintenance, firewall in place – everything.

3

Full Site Audit

Once your site is in Concierge, my first action will be to do a full run-through of your site and evaluate it’s performance, plugins and identify opportunities for improvement. This is included for all new clients, regardless of plan. We can then decide what actions to take moving forward.

4

Ongoing Partnership

You focus on your business while I handle hosting, updates, backups, security, monitoring, optimization, troubleshooting, and support. When you need help, I’m right here.

Find the Concierge Plan That Fits Your Site

Every website has different needs. Some sites simply need fast, reliable hosting and dependable maintenance. Others need ongoing support, access to premium tools, or a higher level of involvement as the business grows.

To keep things simple, Concierge is available in three plan levels—each designed to meet you where you are and grow with you as your site evolves.

Here’s a quick look at what each plan is built for:

ESSENTIALS

$49/mo

A solid foundation for smaller sites that just need things handled.


Perfect for business sites, blogs, and simple membership sites that want fast hosting, reliable maintenance, and personal support — without the extras. If you want peace of mind and a stable website, Essentials gives you everything you need to keep things running smoothly.

CORE

$99/mo

Most Popular

The ideal balance of support, collaboration, and capability.


Great for creators, coaches, and growing businesses that want ongoing communication, better insights, premium tools, and more involved support. Core turns your website into something you never have to figure out alone — with me as your go-to web guy.

View Core

PLATINUM

$299/mo

High-touch partnership with hands-on development included.


Designed for larger, dynamic, or high-traffic sites that rely on WordPress every day. Platinum gives you priority help, included development time, deeper performance oversight, and greater involvement in your ongoing strategy. It’s the closest thing to having your own in-house technical partner.

Here’s Why Clients Choose To Work With Me…

If you become my client, your website becomes my responsibility. No, I won’t run your business — but I will remove the headaches that come with hosting, updates, backups, performance, and all things WordPress. And when the little things come up every month — questions, problems, ideas — you’ll have someone you trust to reach out to.

Easy Communication

Clients tell me I’m super easy to talk to and pretty laid back. Oh yeah, and I speak English pretty well since I’m a native Floridian. 😎 You and I will get along well.

Sound Advice

With 20+ years of experience — technical, marketing, and strategic — I can advise you in a way that goes far beyond basic maintenance. Many clients consider me a partner, not just support.

Less Complication

I’m good at keeping things simple. Let me deal with the complicated stuff so you don’t have to. I’m good at it. I (strangely) kinda like it. So, just let that be my job. I’m the simplifier.

No More “Go It Alone”

You’ll never be stuck trying to figure out how to do something on your site. When you need help, you ask — and I handle it, explain it, or fix it.

Broad Experience

My work spans WordPress development, email systems, automation, course platforms, membership sites, and more. I understand how all the pieces of your digital business fit together.

More Trust

My clients entrust me with their logins and their site. I take that seriously. I store things securely. I treat your site like I do my own. I will only do and recommend what is in your best interest.

  • “Best decision I’ve made for my business in the past year or more.”

    Hands down, deciding to have David become my webmaster/tech guru was the best decision I’ve made for my business in the past year or more. He immediately diagnosed my tech issues, helped me upgrade the site on my current host, and did it quickly and efficiently. The monthly money I pay David is a bargain!

  • “It’s saved me at least 10 hours a week”

    Hey David, I’m grateful for your Concierge service. It’s saved me at least 10 hours a week with not having to deal with everything dealing with the site. I can now focus more of my time and energy on creating content, marketing, and improving my sales process. Thank you so much for everything!

  • “never found a webmaster who is so capable and timely”

    I run a seasonal mango business that lasts about 4 months a year. David has been my “Go To” webmaster for about 3 or 4 years now. I have never found a webmaster who is so capable and timely with the support I need. I subscribed to his Concierge Services for the whole year even though my business is not active for 8 months. I know my website is being watched over and maintained. “My wish is his command.” Thank you, David

  • “It has made my life so much simpler and better.”

    Dave, It’s hard for me to identify exactly all the things you are doing monthly on my website. But tech has run so smoothly since I joined your monthly maintenance program it has made my life so much simpler and better. It clearly is making a positive impact on the function of my online business. Your monthly maintenance program, combined with the transition from Infusionsoft to FluentCRM which you engineered and completed, has saved me $4-500.00 each month, likely in excess of $5000 yearly while greatly reducing my tech headaches AND at the same time helping my online business be more self reliant and digitally sovereign.

Common Questions

You don’t need to host with us if you don’t want to. Most of our Concierge clients choose to do so for the peace of mind and cost savings – plus I can more reliably support and guarantee your site’s performance when I can control the full stack. However, if you prefer to use your own hosting, that’s usually fine.

Immediately after you enroll in any plan, you will fill out a short onboarding form to tell me about your site and answer a few questions. Then, usually within 24-48 hours, I will migrate your site to Concierge (including hosting, unless you choose to remain where you are). We will be in close contact during this onboarding process. Lastly, I will do a full site audit and make recommendations.

When you have an issue, concern or just a question… you will either send it over via email (which I answer personally throughout the day) and/or our private project collaboration workspace (for Core and Platinum). The private space is nice because it contains organized threads, tasks, and even a chatroom. It also means things are less likely to get lost in email inbox clutter.

All plans include the core services, such as hosting, backups and anything that goes along with it. I also don’t charge for emails or answering questions, since that’s kind of the point. 😇 For more hands-on work within your site making edits, tweaks, changes or custom development and setup, or more involved research and requests… that’s where we get into usage of Anytime Credits. It is advised that all Concierge clients maintain a small balance of credits for things that come up. Platinum clients get 3 hours of time included every month automatically, so we use credits much less frequently.

Nope. I’d rather continue to earn your business and have a relationship based on mutual benefit. The last thing I’d want is for either you or I to be locked into something that isn’t working. So, there is no long-term contract with this service. You continue your Concierge service if you feel I am delivering the value you want. If not, you can cancel anytime.

In the event you decide to cancel, it’s pretty easy. If I am hosting your site, I will help migrate it to another host of your choice. If you are using any of our agency licensed plugins, I will deactivate the licenses so you will be responsible for support and updates moving forward. I will never break your site by removing anything. And lastly, I will stop maintaining your site for you and discontinue core services. But, the site is always your’s to control… and if you ever cancel I will help you move your site anywhere you would like to take it.

Yes, of course. You can change your Concierge plan level at any time. You can add additional sites (or remove them) at any time. You can even cancel and part ways whenever you please. You’re in control.

Currently, upgrades/downgrades are not self-service. But, just ask and I’ll make the changes for you without any hassle.

Yes, in fact it is my specialty. I have quite a lot of clients already with this kind of site – and I have a lot of personal experience running these sites myself. I know these kinds of sites have special requirements and need certain skills and – rest assured – Concierge was originally built exactly for this.

Each Concierge plan is designed for one site at a time. The way the resources dedicated to each site work, each site would need it’s own plan. You can “stack” Concierge plans. Not all sites need to be on the same plan.

If you have at least one site under management, you will have the option to bring in Unmanaged Sites for a small add-on charge. This is suitable if you have little hobby sites or small sites that don’t need full Concierge service, but you would still like to consolidate your hosting under one bill. This is a courtesy perk reserved only for Concierge clients.

No. If you are on a Platinum plan, the included time each month is for things as they come up for you. It is meant so that you don’t have to worry about credits unless we’re doing more extensive work together. While Anytime Credits do not expire, your monthly allotted time each month does not carry over month to month.

See The Plans Talk With Me First

I’ve been helping people build online businesses for more than twenty years, and the part I’ve always enjoyed most is working closely with real people. That’s why I created Concierge — to give business owners a support system they can actually trust, and a “web guy” who knows them, their goals, and their website inside and out.

If you decide to join, I’ll take your site under my wing and make sure it’s something you never have to worry about again. I look forward to working with you and being part of your business journey.
