Getting Started with BugShield
Updated 2 July 2026
Creating a BugShield account is free. During registration, you verify your email, add your WordPress domain, choose your plan, and submit your setup in one flow. This means your first site is ready as soon as registration is complete.
BugShield is built for WordPress website owners who need fast, reliable support without committing to a large agency contract. This guide walks you through the exact setup steps so you can get from account creation to your first fix request quickly.
Create your account
- Click Sign In in the top navigation and choose Create account.
- Enter your name, email address, and a secure password.
- Verify your email address, then continue registration by adding your WordPress domain and selecting your plan.
- Submit registration to activate your account and create your first site workspace.
First steps
Once your account is ready, we recommend:
- Add another WordPress site if you manage multiple domains
- Store your site credentials in the Vault
- Get a quote for a one-off fix, or browse maintenance plans
If you are stuck at any point, open a fix request or contact us and we will help you get set up.
