The website headaches we take off your plate

Hand any of these to us and get back to running your business.

  • The person who built your site stopped answering.

    We take over websites built by anyone, on any platform, and become the team you email. No rebuild and no starting over.

  • A ten-minute change came back with a quote for weeks.

    Standard updates go live within 48 to 72 hours. St. John's Construction was quoted weeks and double the cost elsewhere; we made their changes in two days.

  • An update broke the site, and a customer noticed first.

    We apply WordPress, plugin and theme updates with care, check the live site afterward and restore from backup if anything misbehaves.

  • Chrome is warning visitors that your site is not secure.

    SSL certificates stay installed and renewed, malware scans run on schedule and infections get cleaned up, so visitors see a site they can trust.

  • Your hours, prices or team page are out of date.

    Email the change in plain words. We edit it, format it, check it twice and tell you when it is live.

  • Nobody can say when the site was last backed up.

    Scheduled backups go to off-site storage, so a bad update, a hack or a failed server never costs you the website.

The website maintenance one-stop shop.

Website Upkeep keeps your site at its best with regular updates, protection against threats, and pages that load fast on every device.

We maintain, protect and improve websites so your hours go into your business instead of your plugins. One team handles the care, the security and the content, on whatever platform your site runs.

Questions, answered

Website maintenance questions

Something we did not cover? Send us a note and a real person answers within one business day.

What does website maintenance include?

Website maintenance covers regular updates to content and graphics, security checks, bug fixes, performance tuning, plugin and CMS updates, backups and technical support, so the site runs smoothly and stays protected. Our website maintenance plans show what each level includes.

How often should my website be updated?

Security patches and backups belong on a monthly schedule at the very least, and our plans run them continuously. Content is a business decision: a company that publishes news, offers or events needs fresh pages more frequently than a five-page brochure site.

Can Website Upkeep improve my site's security?

Yes. Maintenance installs security patches, scans for vulnerabilities and keeps every piece of software current, which closes the gaps most attacks rely on. Firewall licenses and malware protection come with the Essentials and Full Service plans.

What is the turnaround time for a typical update request?

Standard updates are completed within 48 to 72 hours of your email. Larger changes get a timeline before we start, so nothing is open-ended. Contact us with anything urgent.

Can website maintenance affect my search engine rankings?

It helps them. Fresh content, fast load times and a secure connection are all signals search engines weigh when ranking a page. Our SEO services build on that foundation.

What happens if my website goes down? Do you have a recovery plan?

We start investigating right away and work to restore service fast. Where a backup exists, we bring the site back to its last good state. Sites on our servers get the quickest recovery; see our hosting options.

Are there different maintenance packages available?

Three plans run from essential care and hosting (Economic) to full-service care with content work, emergency support and a personal account manager (Full Service). Compare them on our pricing page, or ask for a custom plan.

How are website backups handled and how often are they done?

Backup frequency depends on the plan, from daily to weekly. Copies are stored on secure, off-site servers so the site can be recovered after a malfunction or a security breach.

What is the role of SEO in website maintenance?

SEO upkeep keeps content and meta tags current, improves site speed, and holds the site to the practices search engines reward, so the visibility you have earned does not slip.

What does a security check involve?

We scan for vulnerabilities and malware, review security settings, confirm every defense is current, update passwords and look for unauthorized changes to your files.
