Making a Request #

Our team is committed to providing exceptional service for your website. We understand your site will need updates and edits and our team is here to help, 24/7. All you need to do is send us an email and our team will take care of the request or answer your question.

In order for our team to be as efficient and accurate as possible, there are a few guidelines to help everything move forward smoothly:

✅  Send all requests via email
When you sign up, we will provide you with the email address to use to send requests to. Your email will be routed to our ticketing system and a real live WordPress expert will review your request within 8 hours. If they have any questions, they will be sure to let you know and continue to keep you up-to-date as they complete your request.

✅  Each request should be a separate email.
Please do not send a list of edits to be completed. When there are multiple edits in one request, it can create a bottleneck and have a negative impact on our efficiency.

✅  The subject of the email should include your domain and a simple subject that captures the essence of your request.
Examples:
business.com – Fix font on the plans page
business.com – Gallery posts need updated

✅  Include as much information as possible.
Things like screenshots, detailed descriptions, error numbers, videos, etc. The more information you include, the less chance there will be a need for back and forth emails and the sooner we can complete your request.

✅  Make sure text can be copy and pasted.
If you are sending in copy that you would like posted/updated, please be sure to include it in a format that we can highlight, copy, and paste — not a screenshot or image.

✅  Remember to include any files that you would like uploaded.
Things like images, videos, recordings, etc.

ℹ️  We do not provide support over the phone or via text messages.
We will respond to your request via email as soon as we can. While we aim to respond to all request within 8 hours, we typically respond much sooner.

ℹ️  Don’t worry about a request being too small or big.
If your request is too big, we will let you know and direct you to what options are available.

❤️  Lead with kindness!
Remember, there are actual people receiving your requests and completing them for you. A kind greeting or a word of appreciation can go a long way.
