What Are Small Tasks?

Small tasks in our WordPress Care Plans are defined as jobs that can be completed by our team within a 15-minute window. These tasks are designed to help you maintain your website’s functionality, update content, or make minor visual tweaks without needing full development time. The main purpose of small tasks is to provide you with regular, ongoing maintenance and improvements to keep your website running smoothly.

Small tasks are part of every Ten10 WordPress Care Plan, with each plan providing a specific number of tasks per month:

  • WordPress Essentials Plan: 1 small task per month.
  • WordPress Enhanced Plan: 2 small tasks per month.
  • WordPress Ultimate Plan: 4 small tasks per month.

This allowance helps you keep your website up-to-date without worrying about minor changes or improvements accumulating into large, complex jobs. Below are some examples of the types of small tasks you can request.

Examples of Small Tasks

Updating Website Content

Keeping your website’s content fresh and relevant is critical to engaging visitors and improving SEO. A small task may include updating homepage text, adding a new blog post, or changing contact information. For instance, if your business hours change, you can use a small task to update this information quickly on your website.

Installing Plugins

Adding new functionality to your website through plugins is a great way to enhance its capabilities. A small task can cover the installation of a plugin. While plugin configuration may require more extensive work, simple installations are typically handled within 15 minutes.

Minor Style Tweaks

Sometimes, small design adjustments can improve your website’s look and user experience. Small tasks such as adjusting font sizes, changing colours, or modifying margins can enhance the readability and visual appeal of your site. For example, if you want your text to stand out more, you could request a font size increase for certain sections of your site.

Fixing Typos and Text Corrections

Mistakes happen, and a typo or grammatical error can make your site look unprofessional. Small tasks include fixing these errors to ensure that your content looks polished and professional. You can request corrections for any text displayed on your site, from product descriptions to blog posts.

Repairing Broken Pages

If a page on your site fails to load or displays content incorrectly, it can damage user experience and credibility. A small task can include troubleshooting and fixing non-functioning pages to ensure that everything works as intended. For instance, if a link is broken or a page returns an error, you can use a small task to have it repaired.

Requesting a Small Task

Requesting a small task with Ten10 is simple and straightforward. Here’s how the process works:

  1. Identify the Task: Review your website and identify a task that can be completed within 15 minutes, such as updating content, making a small design tweak, or installing a plugin.
  2. Contact Us: Send an email to hello@ten10.ie with a detailed description of the small task you want our team to complete. Be as specific as possible to ensure our team can complete the task efficiently.
  3. Task Review: Once your request is received, our team will review the details. We will confirm that the task falls within the scope of a small task (i.e., it can be completed within 15 minutes).
  4. Task Completion: After approval, our team will complete the task within your plan’s small task allowance. You’ll be notified once the task is done.

Additional Development

If the task you request requires more than 15 minutes to complete, we will inform you that additional development work is required. In these cases, we’ll provide you with a quote, and any development work will be charged separately upon approval. This ensures that more complex tasks are handled with the necessary time and resources, while smaller tasks remain covered under your WordPress Care Plan.

For example, installing and configuring a complex plugin may take longer than 15 minutes, requiring custom development to integrate it into your website. In such cases, we will let you know the scope and cost before proceeding.
