Security patches go unapplied
Dependencies, plugins and servers need updating. Unpatched software is how most small sites get compromised.

What it costs you now
Software starts ageing the day it launches.
Becomes a small project
A text edit that needs a quote and a queue gets postponed until it matters.
Is found by a customer
Without monitoring, the first sign of a problem is someone telling you the site is down.
How it works
What a healthy month looks like, step by step.
The same rhythm every month. Step through it.

Monitor
Uptime, speed and errors are watched around the clock, so we hear about problems before you do.
-
Patch
Security updates are applied and tested on a copy first, so an update never becomes an outage.
-
Change
Edits and small improvements are made from your allowance, with no new quote each time.
-

Straight answers
Care & growth: your questions, answered.
What is a website care plan?
A monthly service covering hosting, backups, uptime and performance monitoring, security updates and a block of change hours, with a stated response time. It keeps a site or app secure, fast and current after launch.
How much does website maintenance cost?
Care Essentials is from £99 a month and Care Plus from £199 a month. A growth retainer for continuous improvement starts from £490 a month. Plans are month-to-month after the first quarter.
Can you maintain a site you did not build?
Yes, after a short audit to see what we are taking on, so the plan matches the reality of the system.
Do I need a plan to own my website?
No. You own the code and accounts from handover. A care plan is a convenience, never a dependency.
