Your site, always up to date and in safe hands.
Ongoing updates, security patches, daily backups, and a local expert to call when something needs fixing, so you can focus on running your business.
What is covered
Your site looked after, around the clock.
Monitored 24/7, updated monthly, and backed up daily.
Uptime Monitoring
24/7 monitoring emails me the moment your site goes down, so most issues are fixed before you or your customers notice.
Security Patches
Vulnerability scanning, with patches applied as soon as they are available, not at the next monthly update.
Server Upgrades
PHP, Nginx, and database versions kept current, so your site runs on a supported stack.
CMS Updates
Your CMS and all dependencies updated monthly, tested in staging first, then deployed without disrupting your live site.
Platforms I maintain and support.
WordPress, Statamic, or a custom stack: I keep it updated, secure, and running.

Website Maintenance
Ongoing website care for Tasmanian businesses.
A website isn't set-and-forget.
CMS updates, plugin security patches, SSL renewals, and hosting performance all need ongoing attention, and when something goes wrong, a slow response can mean hours of downtime and lost business. Most Tasmanian small business owners don't have the time or technical knowledge to handle this themselves, and they shouldn't have to.
My maintenance plans cover monthly CMS and plugin updates, daily offsite backups, uptime monitoring, and priority support. You're not waiting in a general queue; you're dealt with first.
What's included in a maintenance plan
Beyond the core maintenance tasks, every plan includes quarterly performance reviews covering load speed, Core Web Vitals, and any errors showing in Search Console. If I spot something between reviews, I'll flag it rather than wait for you to notice. Higher-tier plans also include a set number of content changes each month.
Maintenance plans are available on their own or added to any website design package. If someone else built your site and you want a local expert looking after it, get in touch. I'm happy to take over from wherever things are at.

Maintenance FAQ
Common questions,
straight answers.
Don't see your question? Send me a message and I'll reply within 24 hours.
What happens if my site goes down?
UptimeRobot alerts me by email and I start investigating. Maintenance plan clients get a response within two hours, and common hosting problems are usually fixed sooner. Afterwards you get a postmortem report on what happened.
What are offsite backups and why do they matter?
Your site files and database are backed up daily to a separate location from your hosting server. If the server fails or the site is compromised, I can restore a clean copy quickly, losing at most 24 hours of data.
Can you maintain a site someone else built?
Yes. I take over sites built on Statamic, WordPress and other common platforms. I start with an audit to understand the setup, then look after it from there. You don't need to stay with your original developer.
Can I request content changes as part of my plan?
Yes. Depending on your plan, a set number of content changes are included each month: text edits, image swaps, new pages and similar tasks. Minor changes are usually done within one business day.
How often are CMS and plugin updates applied?
Monthly, after testing in a staging environment. Security patches are applied as soon as they're released, outside the monthly schedule.
Do I need a maintenance plan if my site was just built?
For CMS-powered sites, yes. WordPress especially needs regular security updates: an unpatched site can be compromised within weeks of a vulnerability being disclosed. A brand-new site still needs monitoring and daily backups from day one.
