How maintenance benefits your business.
Your website keeps working
We apply the updates and test afterwards, so the site does not quietly break on a page you never visit.
A bad day does not become a disaster
We take backups and check that they actually work, so a website can be put back rather than rebuilt.
You do not lose enquiries without knowing
We test your enquiry form regularly. A form that has silently stopped sending is the most expensive fault a website can have.
A website is not a thing you buy once.
WordPress and its plugins update constantly, mostly for security. Skip those updates for a year and the site becomes a target. Apply them carelessly and something breaks on a page you never visit.
The failure is quiet either way. Most owners find out that a contact form stopped sending three months after it stopped, when they wonder why the enquiries dried up.
Maintenance is unglamorous and it is the difference between a site that keeps working and one that slowly stops.
What maintenance covers.
- Updates applied, with platform and plugins kept current and tested
- Backups taken regularly and checked, so a bad day is not a disaster
- Security monitoring, so problems are caught before they become outages
- Small changes included, meaning text and image edits as you need them
- The contact form tested, because a silently broken form is the most expensive fault there is
- A real person to contact when something looks wrong
Who it is for. Any business that depends on its website staying online.
Here is what happens.
Free 30-minute consultation
What the site runs on and what it needs to keep doing.
Take a baseline
A full backup and a record of what is installed, before anything changes.
Set the routine
Updates, backups and checks on a schedule that suits the site.
Monitor
Problems caught early rather than reported by a customer.
Report
What was done and anything you should know about, in plain language.
Why this is cheaper than the alternative.
A hacked or broken site is an emergency, and emergency work costs several times what routine work costs. Recovering a site with no recent backup can cost more than the site did.
The other cost is invisible. Every week a form is broken or a page is down is a week of enquiries you never knew about and cannot recover.
Maintenance is a small recurring cost that removes both. It is also the only service here I will tell you to skip if your site is simple and static enough not to need it.
- Updates left for a year, then applied all at once
- Backups assumed to exist because the host mentioned them
- Nobody testing whether the contact form still sends
- Problems discovered by a customer, or not at all
- Updates applied regularly and tested afterwards
- Backups taken and actually checked
- The enquiry route tested, because that is what earns money
- Problems caught before they become an outage
Real clients. Real names.
A Clutch-verified nonprofit build for a client in Toronto, a church site in New Delhi, and a 5.0 rating from 14 Google reviews you can read yourself.
What people ask.
Hosts back up the server, usually. That is not the same as testing that your site works, that your form sends, or that a plugin update did not break a page.
Text edits, swapping an image, updating hours or prices. Anything that needs design or new functionality is quoted separately, and you will be told before, not after.
Yes. It is a service, not a lock-in, and your site stays yours throughout.
Possibly not. Ask me at the consultation and I will give you an honest answer even when it means less work for me.
What goes with this.
Want it to keep working?
Book a free 30-minute consultation. I keep the number of ongoing clients small, because this kind of work is only worth paying for if somebody is actually paying attention to it.
Free 30 minutes. No sales pitch. No obligation.
