Site Maintenance Freefall?

Site Updates and Maintenance

Feeling like your site maintenance is getting away from you? Programming languages are constantly updated and so your site needs to keep up with those changes. This only happens with on-going maintenance. In reality, a website needs about $300-$400 worth of maintenance a year. Of course you went to a designer and said, ‘I need a website’, had a site built and then thought it would be good forever. HTML, Flash, ASPX, Cold Fusion are languages that are falling away, being replaced by more advanced javascript and PHP.

In April 2015, Google started looking at a website’s mobile-friendliness as an SEO ranking factor. What this means is that you will no longer be able to sit on a site for years without updating it. Recent trends in web design like HTML5, expanded styling possibilities, responsiveness, accessibility, and speed all affect how well your site ranks in search.

Honestly, we simply want our client sites to work for them into perpetuity and the only way to do that is to keep them updated ourselves. So we build that into our plans.

Content Updates & Changes

When we first started building on WordPress, we did so because it was so simple for the client to use. And over time, we’ve discovered that it’s not quite that simple – business owners just don’t have the time to learn WordPress. So even their smallest changes were submitted to us. Date changes, blog articles, new staff bios, inventory – all these keep your site up-to-date.

For this reason, we build content changes into our plans. Instead of sending you off to directories and files full of gobbledygook to figure out how to change a price, we just take care of it using a ticketing system. Simple for you, simple for us.
