All you need is a
Website Maintenance Plan.
This plan includes routine and ad-hoc updates made to your website monthly for a full year.
You will gain an expert website designer and WordPress developer dedicated to your website. As a small business owner myself, I understand that each website’s needs differ. Your website maintenance plan includes a retainer of hours each month that can be used on any aspect of your website. You’re not limited to make pre-defined updates and have full discretion over how your hours can be used each month.
Updates include anything—technical or not—that relates to your website’s design and function (including email newsletters). The website maintenance plan is not an alternative for a virtual assistant, copywriter, or SEO specialist.

How your monthly maintenance schedule will breakdown:
Week 1: Create your wishlist
- Identify all the updates you would like made to your website
- Add them to your project board Backlog
Week 2: Prioritize and schedule
- Each task is reviewed and prioritized
- Updates are scheduled based on priority
Week 3: Development
- Site is pulled into Staging
- Updates are made, both from the scheduled priorities plus any available theme and plugin releases
- All updates are tested in Staging before sent for final review
Week 4: Launch!
- You review all updates in Staging and provide feedback and final approval
- Once approved, all updates launch
Ad-Hoc updates are launched as needed
Occasionally, your website will have updates that need to occur between maintenance cycles. With the website maintenance plan, these ad-hoc updates are worked in as needed. This means you won’t need to wait a full cycle to see a critical update launch!
Frequently Asked Questions and Concerns

This sounds like a lot! Can I afford a website maintenance plan? This sounds like a lot! Can I afford a website maintenance plan?

Yes! Website maintenance is an investment, but costs far less than the downtime and price tag of a custom website redesign.
Outsourcing your website maintenance is an easy and affordable way to maintain control without giving up your time. After all, you’re the boss.
Packages start at $360 per month and can be canceled anytime.

Many aspects of managing your website can be easily done yourself. And a good use for the website maintenance plan is to provide training for your team. I am a huge advocate for website owners truly owning their website and running it as they do their business.
Just like you know the ins and outs of your business, a website professional knows the ins and outs of the more technical aspects of your website.
Even for those who want to be hands-on with their website, a website maintenance plan is an excellent transition from the initial build to long-term self management.
