What's included
Everything a business website needs to stay safe
Every care plan covers the essentials below. Plans differ in how many sites, how often, and how fast we respond.
Security updates
PHP, framework, CMS, plugin and theme patches, tested on staging before they reach your live site.
Uptime monitoring
Round-the-clock checks with alerts to us, so problems are found before your customers notice.
Off-site backups
Automated daily backups stored separately from your hosting, with regular restore tests.
SSL/TLS certificates
Automatic renewal and expiry monitoring, and a fast replacement if a certificate authority revokes yours.
Security hardening
Security headers, firewall rules, login protection and periodic reviews of who has access.
Performance checks
Load times and Core Web Vitals tracked, with regressions fixed before they cost you rankings.
Monthly report
What was updated, what was blocked, and what we recommend next, in plain language.
Support when you need it
A direct line to the engineers who look after your site, for questions, changes and fixes.
Node.js, TypeScript, Go & Python applications
Application maintenance: vulnerable dependencies patched, critical updates shipped
Your APIs, back ends and internal tools need the same care as your website. We keep them on supported runtimes with patched dependencies, without breaking production.
Vulnerability scanning
Continuous checks of npm, Go module and Python dependencies with npm audit, govulncheck and pip-audit, plus GitHub or GitLab security alerts.
Critical security updates
Vulnerable packages patched quickly, tested in CI and released through your normal deploy process.
Runtime upgrades
Node.js LTS lines and Go releases lose security support on a fixed schedule. We upgrade before yours does.
Supply-chain protection
Lockfiles pinned and reviewed, new dependencies vetted, and fast action when a package is compromised.
Major version upgrades
TypeScript, Express, Next.js, NestJS, Gin and Django upgrades planned and shipped in small, safe steps.
Containers & CI
Base images rebuilt with security patches, pipelines kept green, and dependency-update bots configured and triaged.
How it starts
Taking over your website, step by step
We maintain WordPress, WooCommerce, Laravel, custom PHP, Django, Wagtail and static sites, plus Node.js, TypeScript, Go and Python applications, on the hosting you already have.
Audit
We review the site, its code and its hosting with a security audit.
Fix the urgent things
Critical issues are fixed first, at a fixed price.
Onboard
Monitoring, backups and the update routine are set up and access is documented.
Ongoing care
Updates, checks and a monthly report, with us on call when you need us.
Plans sized to your website
A fixed monthly or yearly fee based on how complex your site is and how critical uptime is to your business. No hourly surprises.
FAQ
Maintenance questions
Do you maintain websites you didn't build?
Yes. We start with an audit, fix anything urgent at a fixed price, then take the site over on a care plan. WordPress, Laravel, custom PHP, Django and static sites are all welcome.
What happens when a vulnerability like php2shell is announced?
Sites on a care plan are checked and patched as a priority, and you get a short note explaining what was affected and what we did.
Do you also maintain Node.js, TypeScript and Go applications?
Yes. We patch vulnerable npm and Go module dependencies, ship critical security updates and keep applications on supported Node.js and Go versions, with every change tested in CI before release.
Can we keep our current hosting?
Yes. We work with your existing host. If the hosting itself is holding the site back, we'll recommend a move and handle it for you.
How much does website maintenance cost?
A fixed monthly or yearly fee, sized to your site: how complex it is and how critical uptime is to your business. Ask for a quote after the security check.
