Website Maintenance
Website Maintenance So You
Never Have to Think About It
Your website is a business asset — it needs maintenance like any other. We handle updates, security, performance monitoring, and content changes so your site stays fast, secure, and accurate while you focus on running your business.
Overview
What happens to websites that don't get maintained.
An unmaintained website doesn't just stay the same — it deteriorates. Contact information goes stale. Broken links accumulate. Page speed degrades as browsers and devices evolve. Security vulnerabilities appear. And Google quietly starts ranking your site lower because its freshness signals are weak.
Website maintenance isn't exciting, but it's the difference between a site that keeps performing and one that slowly stops working. Our maintenance plans cover everything from routine content updates to security monitoring to performance checks — handled on a schedule, without you having to ask.
What's Included
Everything you get.
Content updates
Text changes, image swaps, new service additions, pricing updates — send us the change and we handle it, typically within 24–48 hours.
Performance monitoring
Regular PageSpeed and Core Web Vitals checks to make sure your site stays fast as browsers, devices, and Google's standards evolve.
Uptime monitoring
We're notified the second your site goes down — before your customers notice — and we act immediately to restore it.
Security checks
Regular audits for vulnerabilities, outdated dependencies, and anything that could compromise your site or your visitors' data.
Monthly reporting
A plain-English summary of what was done, how the site is performing, and any recommendations for improvement.
Priority response

FAQ
Common questions.
How much does website maintenance cost?
Maintenance plans start at $29/month for basic monitoring and small content updates. More comprehensive plans covering regular content work, SEO reporting, and priority support are available. Contact us for a plan matched to your site's needs.
Do you maintain websites you didn't build?
Yes, with a one-time onboarding audit. We need to understand the codebase before we take responsibility for maintaining it. Contact us with details about your current site.
What counts as a "content update"?
Text changes, image replacements, adding or removing pages, updating contact information, modifying service listings — anything that doesn't require significant new development. Structural changes or new feature builds are scoped separately.
What happens if my site gets hacked?
We treat security incidents as emergencies. Maintenance clients get immediate response, site restoration from the most recent clean state, and a post-incident report on what happened and how we've prevented it from happening again.
Can I cancel my maintenance plan?
Yes — month-to-month with no cancellation fee. We'll send you all your files and credentials when you go.
