Care & maintenance
The websites that embarrass a business are almost never badly built. They are two years old, three prices out of date, and nobody has had a reason to open them since launch.
Care is the standing arrangement that stops that. Dependencies and platform versions are kept current, security advisories are acted on, backups are verified rather than assumed, and uptime and performance are watched.
Two hours a month of actual changes are included (prices, staff, a new service, a page that needs rewriting), because the alternative is a quote for every small edit, which is how sites go stale.
The monthly report is one page: what changed, what was patched, how the site performed, and what we think should happen next month. If nothing needed doing, it says that.
- Updates, patches and verified backups
- Two hours of content changes a month
- A report you can actually read
Four things arrive, in this order.
Everything below is in the scope by default. If a project does not need one of them, it comes off the quote rather than being quietly left out.
- 01
Updates
Framework, dependency and platform updates applied on a staging URL first, then promoted.
- 02
Security
Advisories monitored, certificates renewed, headers reviewed, and access audited twice a year.
- 03
Changes
Two hours a month of content and small design changes, rolled over one month if unused.
- 04
The report
One page, monthly: what changed, uptime, performance, and the recommendation for next month.
From the first call to the handover.
You see the work at every stage, on something real. Nothing on this list needs chasing.
- 01
Baseline
Where the site is now: versions, performance, accessibility, and anything already broken.
- 02
Catch up
One pass to bring everything current, included in the first month rather than billed extra.
- 03
Monthly cycle
Updates, verification, your changes and the report, on the same date every month.
- 04
Quarterly review
Thirty minutes on what the site is doing for the business, and what should change.
The things people ask before they commit.
Do you only maintain sites you built?
No, but we start with a paid audit for sites we did not build, so nobody signs a monthly agreement over an unknown.
What if I need more than two hours?
Additional work is billed at an hourly rate quoted up front, and we tell you before we start rather than after.
Can I cancel?
Monthly, with thirty days' notice. Everything stays yours, and we hand over the deployment.
Need care & maintenance?
Send through what the business needs and a fixed quote comes back inside two days.
