Website maintenance: what it includes and what it costs
Website maintenance keeps your site up to date, secure and running: changes to copy and prices, backups, link checks and help with questions. In my service it costs 25 to 60 dollars a month and is optional.
What it includes
- Small changes to copy, prices and photos.
- Checks of links, forms and buttons.
- Backups and monitoring that the site is online.
- Renewal and review of the domain and hosting (you pay these to your provider).
- Help when something fails or you have a question.
When you need it
- You change prices, menu or hours often.
- You do not want to deal with the technical side.
- The site has bookings, orders or a bot that cannot fail.
When you do not
If your landing page hardly changes and you can update a text yourself, you can skip monthly maintenance: after launch I stay available for questions and I teach you how to use it.
Price
| Service | Price (USD) |
|---|---|
| Monthly maintenance | 25 – 60 per month |
| One-off change of copy or photos | by scope, quoted beforehand |
The price depends on the number of pages and the changes expected. More on the pricing page.
Frequently asked questions
Is maintenance mandatory?
No. It is an optional extra; the landing page works without it.
Does it include the domain and hosting?
No: the domain and hosting are paid to your provider. Maintenance covers my work on the site.
Can I change the texts myself?
In most cases yes: at delivery I show you how.
