It\u2019s equally important that <strong>all key plugins are licensed, updated, and secure<\/strong>. At WPM, we take this seriously \u2013 we manage licenses centrally, keep them regularly updated, and ensure your website runs fast, stable, and without issues.<\/p>\n<h2>How Agency Licenses Work<\/h2>\n<p>During development, we use proven professional plugins that handle SEO, speed optimization, multilingual functionality, and GDPR compliance. Some of the most commonly used include <strong>WPML<\/strong> (multilingual), <strong>WP Rocket<\/strong> (caching and performance optimization), <strong>Rank Math PRO<\/strong> (SEO tool), <strong>Real Cookie Banner<\/strong> (GDPR compliance, Devowl), and <strong>ACF Pro<\/strong> (Advanced Custom Fields).<\/p>\n<p>At WPM, we have <strong>agency licenses<\/strong> for all these plugins, meaning we can set them up and activate them for you as part of your project. License fees are not included in the base project price, but <strong>can be included upon request<\/strong> in our maintenance program, where we handle regular updates, security, and legal compliance.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Active Licenses Matter<\/h2>\n<p>WordPress is constantly evolving with new features, security fixes, and core updates. Without active licenses, <strong>plugins stop receiving updates<\/strong>, which can quickly lead to problems:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Security risks<\/strong> due to outdated versions,<\/li>\n<li><strong>incompatibility<\/strong> with the updated core or theme,<\/li>\n<li>and <strong>slower website performance<\/strong>, which affects SEO.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Active licenses ensure that your site always benefits from the latest improvements and protection \u2014 directly impacting <strong>reliability, speed, and user experience<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Savings and Peace of Mind for Clients<\/h2>\n<p>By joining our maintenance program, we take care of <strong>license management, regular updates, and technical compliance<\/strong>. This means less hassle for you \u2014 no manual renewals and no risk of broken functionality. Many clients choose to include licenses in their monthly maintenance plan because it provides <strong>complete peace of mind and constant oversight of website performance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Custom Licensing Costs<\/h2>\n<p>Every project is different, so <strong>license costs are determined individually<\/strong> based on the plugins used and the scope of maintenance. If you choose to manage them independently, we\u2019ll help you transfer licenses and advise on the optimal setup.<\/p>\n<h2>In Summary: Active Licenses, Peaceful Sleep<\/h2>\n<p>License management isn\u2019t just a technical detail \u2014 it\u2019s the <strong>foundation of a stable, fast, and secure website<\/strong>. With WPM, you have a partner who ensures everything runs as it should: active licenses, regular updates, and websites always ready to grow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want to learn more about our maintenance plans and licensing options?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/wpm.si\/en\/inquiry\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"button primary\" rel=\"noopener\" >\n\t\t<span>Send inquiry!<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n<div class=\"row align-middle paketi\"  id=\"row-845072992\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1119351702\" class=\"col pb-0 medium-6 small-12 large-4\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"pricing-table-wrapper\">\n  <div class=\"pricing-table ux_price_table text-center box-shadow-2 box-shadow-4-hover\"style=\"border-radius:25px;\">\n    <div class=\"pricing-table-header\">\n      <div class=\"title uppercase strong\">Maintenance Package M<\/div>\n      <div class=\"price is-xxlarge\">35,99 EUR<\/div>\n          <\/div>\n    <div class=\"pricing-table-items items\">\n      \n<div class=\"bullet-item\" title=\"\"><span class=\"text\">Monthly website review<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"bullet-item\" title=\"\"><span class=\"text\">Monthly updates and maintenance<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"bullet-item\" title=\"\"><span class=\"text\">Daily dackup<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"bullet-item tooltip has-hover\" title=\"Support work up to 1 hour per month\"><span class=\"text\">Minor support work<\/span><span class=\"tag-label bullet-more-info circle\">?<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"bullet-item\" title=\"\"><span class=\"text\">Response time up to 16 hours<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"bullet-item\" title=\"\"><span class=\"text\">Email support<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"bullet-item\" title=\"\"><span class=\"text\">Technical SEO analysis once per year<\/span><\/div>\n<h2>60,00 \u20ac + VAT<\/h2>\n<p>per month<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/wpm.si\/en\/inquiry\/\" class=\"button primary\" >\n\t\t<span>Inquiry<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n    <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t<div id=\"gap-1677440385\" class=\"gap-element clearfix show-for-small\" style=\"display:block;
