A WordPress monitoring service that catches problems early.

Uptime checks every five minutes, response time tracking, WordPress and PHP environment checks, cron and database health, DNS change alerts, email delivery monitoring, file integrity, security scans, plugin health, Core Web Vitals, technical SEO checks, debug log analysis, and performance trends. Results show in one dashboard per site.

Uptime and response-time checks run every five minutes. Other checks run on schedules suited to each signal, from frequent WordPress activity delivery and hourly environment checks to daily health checks. Shield Pro malware scans run daily, and the latest results appear in your dashboard.

Yes. Outside checks such as uptime work alongside the BugShield plugin, which lets us read plugin health, error logs, and other inside-the-site signals. Install it when you start Shield Light or Shield Pro.

BugShield keeps external checks such as uptime away from your WordPress server and schedules inside-the-site checks so monitoring work stays lightweight. Performance and Core Web Vitals results also help you spot slowdowns over time.

When something needs attention, BugShield sends an in-app notification and email for downtime and critical security issues. Every event is also written to your site activity log so you can review what happened later.

Yes. Both plans include the full monitoring suite. Shield Pro adds malware prevention, priority response, daily and on-demand backups, and unlimited fixes on top. Compare plans on the pricing page.

Yes. Add each website to your BugShield account and give each site its own Shield Light or Shield Pro plan. Every site gets a separate monitoring dashboard, alerts, activity history, and health results.

Yes. Both Shield plans include security checks, detailed file integrity monitoring, plugin health, and alerts for suspicious changes. Shield Pro adds daily malware scans, active prevention, and priority response when a security issue appears.

Yes. BugShield tracks Core Web Vitals and page performance on mobile and desktop. Your dashboard keeps the results together with response-time trends so you can see when site speed improves or starts to decline.

You get an alert with clear context in the dashboard, and our team gets it too. On a maintenance plan we start work straight away and chat with you until it is resolved. Monitoring does not change your site without telling you.

BugShield tracks your WordPress and PHP versions, memory limits, upload limits, related runtime settings, and whether WordPress can connect to its database. PHP lifecycle alerts show when the installed version is approaching or has reached end of life.

Yes. Cron monitoring checks scheduled-task health, overdue events, queue size, and Action Scheduler failures when they can be detected. Database monitoring reviews total and table sizes, autoloaded options, transients, and database connectivity.

BugShield compares important DNS records with a known-good baseline and alerts you when they change. Email monitoring checks delivery, inbox or spam placement, latency, recent failures, and the SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and MX records used by your domain.

File integrity monitoring compares WordPress core files with official checksums, reviews wp-config.php permissions, and detects unexpected changes to .htaccess. These checks help identify altered files or unsafe access settings that need investigation.
