What Does Website Maintenance Include?

Security updates

Out-of-date plugins and themes are a common way small business websites get hacked. We keep them current and test the site afterwards.

Backups you can restore

Daily backups with 15 days of recovery, so a bad update or a hack can be rolled back quickly.

Uptime monitoring

We are alerted if your site goes down, often before you notice.

Changes when you need them

Care and Care Plus include change time each month for text, images, new pages and small fixes.

One point of contact

Hosting, domain and website questions go to one team that already knows your site.

React and Next.js

Maintenance for React Websites

React and Next.js websites use the same plans and prices. Instead of plugin updates, we keep the framework and its dependencies up to date. React sites have no built-in editor, so your plan's change time covers page and blog edits, or you can add a headless CMS for $499 + GST and make edits yourself. See WordPress or React.
