Your WordPress site, locked down and looked after.

- $659 a year, everything included
- Hack repair included
- Works on any host
Why it matters
Most WordPress hacks aren't clever. They find a plugin that's out of date, or a flaw nobody has fixed yet, and walk straight in.

Hack repair included
If something does go wrong, a developer fixes it.
Most security plugins tell you there's a problem and leave the rest to you. Pressfort includes the fix.
If malware gets through, an update breaks something or your site goes down, our team goes in and sorts it. We've been building and repairing WordPress sites for almost 15 years. There's no call-out fee and no extra invoice.

Safe updates
Updates keep you safe. They also break things.
That's why so many sites fall behind. One update takes the site down, and after that nobody wants to press the button again. Months later, one of those old plugins turns up in a vulnerability report.
Pressfort takes the gamble out of it. A full backup is taken first. Updates go to a staging copy of your site before they go anywhere near the live one. If something does go wrong, there's a clean backup ready to restore.

The version of your gallery plugin has a known upload flaw. A virtual patch is in place and the update is booked into tonight's run.
Covered by virtual patchCatch malware before your customers do.
AI-powered scanning checks your site's files for malicious code, hidden backdoors and injected spam. If something turns up, you hear about it straight away.
- Vulnerability alerts when a plugin or theme you use has a known flaw
- Runs in the background with nothing for you to set up
90 days of backups, stored off-site.
Your site is backed up every day and each copy is kept for 90 days, away from your server. If you only spot a problem weeks later, there's still a clean version to go back to.
- A fresh backup before every update
- Stored separately from your hosting, so one bad day at your host doesn't take your backups with it

FAQ
Questions people ask us
Can't see yours? Ask it in a free security check request and we'll answer it.
Do I need to change my hosting?
No. Pressfort works with your existing host. If you'd rather hand the hosting over too, we can look after that as well.
What happens if an update breaks something?
Every update is backed up first and tested on a staging copy of your site before it reaches the live one, so problems usually get caught there. If one does slip through, we restore the backup taken just before the update.
My host already has a firewall. Is that enough?
Usually not. Hosting firewalls are general-purpose and aren't tuned for WordPress plugins and themes. In Patchstack's 2026 research, standard hosting defences blocked only 26% of the WordPress-specific attacks they tested.
What is virtual patching?
When a flaw is found in a plugin, there's often a gap before the developer releases a fix. In 2025, 46% of WordPress vulnerabilities still had no fix when they were made public. Virtual patching blocks attempts to exploit the flaw at the firewall, so your site is covered during that gap.
What if my site gets hacked?
We fix it. If your site is hacked while it's protected by Pressfort, our team cleans it up and closes the gap that let the attack in. Two clean-ups a year are included, with no extra charge.
How much does it cost?
$659 a year per site. That covers every feature and hack repair. There are no tiers or add-ons. See pricing.
Who's behind Pressfort?
Pressfort is run by Callum Strong through his company, Launch Creative Ltd. Callum has over 20 years' experience in web development, and almost 15 of those have been spent building and fixing WordPress sites. When something needs fixing, our team fixes it.
