Our Vision: Website Owners Thriving Stress-Free
When we started StateWP, it wasn’t because we loved WordPress (though we do).
It was because we saw business owners drowning in WordPress headaches they didn’t sign up for. We kept hearing about the same scenarios and frustrations:
“I handle maintenance myself.”
🚨 Until a plugin breaks and their site goes offline for days. Then they find themselves up at 3 a.m. on Sunday, googling plugin updates and fixes instead of sleeping.
“Our host takes care of that.”
🔍 Until something goes wrong and their host has no answers… helping them realize they never really knew what their host was doing to secure their site.
“Do I even need a website maintenance provider?”
đź’¸ Until slow speeds, outdated premium plugins, or a hack costs them time, money, and trust.
We call it artisanal WordPress maintenance.
You speak to Garrett, our CEO, when you sign up, and then you work with your dedicated account manager when you’re a client. We personally make sure your website is fast, secure, high-performing, and optimized for search engine rankings – so you can focus on what you do best, running your business.
No more sleepless nights, surprise crashes, or wondering, “Is my online presence actually being taken care of?”
To help you take the first step, we offer a free audit that shows how we can get your site to peak performance.

Our Story & Dream Team
As State Creative, we spent over a decade building award-winning websites for clients across industries like higher education, nonprofits, professional services, and ecommerce.
But, as we worked on these custom design projects, we noticed frustration among clients because maintaining their WordPress websites was a constant headache. Technical aspects like uptime monitoring, core updates, database optimization, user experience issues, mobile responsiveness, daily backups, and security threats were tough to handle alongside growing a business.
It was our time to do more. We launched StateWP, a maintenance agency that takes the stress out of website management for businesses like yours.
Our team of WordPress security experts has been working together since 2010, which is almost unheard of in an industry where companies come and go. This consistency means we know our clients, their challenges, and how to deliver solutions that truly make a difference.
