Website maintenance that prevents problems instead of billing for them

Websites aren't finish-and-forget. Our maintenance plans keep your site updated, backed up, secure and fast — with a real team to call when you need changes.

the challenge

An unmaintained website is a slow-motion emergency

Outdated software gets hacked. Backups that were never tested fail when needed. Small errors pile up until the contact form has quietly been broken for months. Most website disasters were preventable maintenance items first.

our approach

Built around the outcome, not a template.

Our maintenance plans cover the essentials on a schedule: core, theme and plugin updates tested before they go live; automated backups you can actually restore from; uptime and security monitoring; and periodic speed and SEO health checks.

Plans include a monthly allowance for content changes and small improvements — so 'can you just update this page?' gets done in days, not someday.

faq

Website Maintenance — questions, answered

Yes — after a quick technical audit so we know what we're taking on. Most of our maintenance clients came to us with sites built elsewhere.

Updates, backups, security and uptime monitoring, performance checks, and a monthly time allowance for content changes. We'll match a plan to your site's complexity.

On a maintenance plan, we isolate the issue, clean the site, restore from backup if needed and patch the entry point — that response is part of the service.

Yes, plans are month-to-month. Your site and backups are yours regardless.
