A website that stays looked after
We keep your site updated, backed up and checked each month, so you can get on with running the business.
In plain English.
Most websites are built, launched and then left alone. A year later the plugins are out of date, the contact form has quietly stopped sending, and nobody is sure when the last backup ran. A care plan stops that drift by giving one person the job of checking your site regularly.
Each month we apply updates on a staging copy first, check that forms and checkout still work, and confirm backups are landing somewhere other than your web server. We watch for expiring SSL certificates and domain renewals, and we look at Search Console for new errors.
The plan also covers small content changes. New opening hours, a staff photo, a price tweak or a fresh page built from an existing layout can simply be emailed over. Bigger projects are quoted separately before any work starts, so the monthly fee stays predictable.
It suits you if.
- Your site was built a while ago and nobody has updated it since
- You would rather email a change than log in and do it yourself
- You rely on enquiries or orders coming through the site
- You have no idea where your backups are kept, or if they exist
- You want one named person to call when something looks wrong
What we do.
Updates tested before they go live
Core, theme and plugin updates are tried on a staging copy first. If something breaks there, it gets fixed before your visitors ever see it.
Off-server backups
Daily backups are stored away from your hosting account, so a server failure or a hack does not take your only copy with it.
Uptime and form checks
We monitor the site for downtime and send test submissions through your forms, because a broken form can cost weeks of enquiries before anyone notices.
Small edits included
Text, image and opening-hour changes are part of the plan. You email us, we make the change and reply when it is live.
Renewal watch
SSL certificates, domain names and licensed plugins all expire. We track the dates so a lapsed renewal never takes your site offline.
A short monthly note
You get a plain summary of what was updated, what we checked and anything we think needs your attention.
How it runs.
- 01
Free 15-minute call
Tell Garreth what the site runs on, who built it and what worries you about it. We agree a monthly fee before anything else happens.
- 02
Health check and handover
We collect logins, take a full backup and look over the site, flagging anything outdated or fragile before the plan starts.
- 03
Monthly routine
Updates, checks and backups run on a set schedule each month, and small edit requests are handled as they arrive.
- 04
Review as you grow
If your needs change, for example a new shop or booking system, we review the plan with you and agree any change in price first.
Questions people ask.
How much does a care plan cost?
It depends on the platform, the number of plugins and how many edits you expect each month. After a free call we give you a fixed monthly fee. It does not creep up, and anything outside the plan is quoted before we start.
Can you look after a site someone else built?
Yes. We start with a health check so we understand how it was put together. If we find something risky, such as an abandoned plugin or very old PHP, we explain it plainly and tell you what fixing it would involve.
What do you need from me to start?
Admin access to the website, access to your hosting control panel, and the login for wherever your domain is registered. If you do not have some of these, we can help you recover them from the old provider.
Can I stop the plan later?
Yes. The notice period is agreed when you sign up. If you leave, we hand over a recent full backup and every login we hold, so you or another developer can carry on without a gap.
