What a maintenance retainer actually covers

When clients ask us about maintenance, they often expect a single line item, "we'll keep your plugins updated". That's part of it. But a real maintenance plan has a lot more going on underneath. Security monitoring, uptime alerts, daily backups, speed tuning, broken link sweeps, monthly SEO health checks, and a small content-change allowance so your team isn't filing tickets for every headline tweak.

We run this work across WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Next.js and a few other platforms. The list of what's covered is written into the agreement, so you always know what's in and out of scope.

What's in the plan

  • Daily off-site backups with 30-day restore window
  • Weekly security scans and patching
  • Core, theme and plugin updates, tested before going live
  • 24/7 uptime monitoring with incident response
  • Monthly page-speed and Core Web Vitals review
  • Broken link and redirect sweeps
  • Content updates, typically 2–4 hours a month included
  • Quarterly SEO technical audit
How we run the work

Four rhythms that keep your site healthy.

Daily

Backups run, uptime checks ping, security scans sweep. You hear from us only if something trips.

Weekly

Plugin and dependency updates tested in staging, shipped to production after a quick smoke test. Broken link sweep on key pages.

Monthly

A page-speed and Core Web Vitals report. A health summary with any issues we spotted and what we did about them.

Quarterly

A deeper technical SEO audit. Schema refresh. An hour-long review call with your team to plan the next 90 days.

Why it matters

The cost of a neglected website adds up quietly.

Most of the websites we take on for maintenance come to us after something broke. A security vulnerability that flagged on Google Safe Browsing. A plugin conflict that dropped the site for six hours during peak campaign spend. Page speed that slipped into the red and started costing organic rankings.

All of that is avoidable with boring, steady work done every week. Maintenance isn't glamorous, but it's the single cheapest way to protect the investment you already made in your site.

  • Avoid Google Safe Browsing flags that kill organic traffic overnight
  • Keep Core Web Vitals in the green so SEO rankings don't slip
  • Clean plugin and theme stack, fewer attack surfaces, fewer conflicts
  • Fast incident response when something does go wrong
  • One team that already knows your site, instead of a freelancer search in a panic
FAQ

Website maintenance, answered.

Do you maintain sites you didn't build?

Yes. We take on inherited sites after a short onboarding audit, mostly to understand the stack, security posture and any landmines. Once that's done, we run maintenance the same way we do on our own builds.

What platforms do you support?

WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Framer, Astro and Next.js-based stacks are the bulk of our maintenance book. Other platforms case-by-case.

What if I need bigger changes, a new section or redesign?

Small content changes are included. Anything bigger moves into a scoped development block, billed separately. We'll always quote before starting.

Is there a lock-in period?

No. Month-to-month. You can step away with 30 days' notice and we'll hand over everything cleanly, no data hostage situations.
