Website Maintenance & Support

Updates, monitoring and small improvements so your site stays secure, current and usable.

Website maintenance and support

A new site is not “finished” at launch. Platforms, plugins, dependencies and content needs keep moving. Maintenance is how you avoid surprise outages, insecure software and a homepage that quietly rots.

We offer practical care plans: updates, backups, monitoring and a monthly allowance for small fixes — with larger work quoted separately so the plan stays predictable.

What is typically included

CMS/core and critical dependency updates on a controlled schedule; backups and a known restore path; uptime monitoring on plans that include it; a small content or bug-fix allowance each month; security hygiene; and clear notes on what happened when we touch production. Critical outages are prioritised ahead of routine content changes. We typically reply within one business day.

What is not included

New sections, redesigns, major integrations and campaign landing pages are project work. That separation keeps care plans affordable and stops “unlimited changes” from becoming neither unlimited nor careful. Rollover rules for unused hours, when offered, are written simply so there are no month-end surprises.

Sites we did not build

We can often maintain sites we did not originally build after a short audit. Some stacks need cleanup before a care plan makes sense — we will say so rather than collect a retainer on a ticking bomb.

Pair with growth work

Maintenance keeps the lights on. Pair with SEO or landing pages when you want growth, not only stability. Updates are controlled — not blind auto-updates that break the site overnight.

Questions about Website Maintenance & Support

What is included in maintenance?

Core updates, backups, uptime checks and a monthly allowance for small content or bug fixes. Larger features are quoted separately.

Do I need maintenance if the site is new?

Yes. Platforms, plugins and dependencies change. A care plan stops small issues becoming outages or security problems.

What is not included?

New sections, redesigns, major integrations and campaign landing pages. Those are scoped as project work so the care plan stays predictable.

How quickly do you respond?

We typically reply within one business day. Critical outages are prioritised ahead of routine content changes.

Can you maintain a site you did not build?

Often yes, after a short audit of hosting, updates and technical debt. Some stacks need cleanup before a care plan makes sense.

Do you monitor uptime?

Yes on care plans that include monitoring. Alerts go to us first so we can investigate before you hear from customers.

Are backups included?

Yes. We confirm backup frequency and restore process so recovery is not theoretical.

Can unused hours roll over?

Depends on the plan. We keep the rules simple and written so there are no surprises at month end.

Do you update plugins and themes?

Yes, on a controlled schedule with checks after updates — not blind auto-updates that break the site overnight.
