Website maintenance agency

A live website needs attention as software, content and business requirements change. A care plan should make clear what is checked, what is included and how to request help.

Talk it through

Ongoing website care with a clear scope and someone to turn to

A broken form or failed update can interrupt everyday business. Maintenance gives those risks regular attention, with suitable backups and a clear response plan when something needs fixing.

What to agree in a website care plan

The useful detail is the scope of each task, the frequency and who takes responsibility.

  • Software updates and checks

    Plan how updates are assessed and tested, including whether a staging copy is appropriate.

  • Backups and recovery

    A backup plan needs a retention policy and a workable way to restore the site.

  • Availability monitoring

    Monitoring can flag outages, but detection and resolution are separate responsibilities.

  • Security maintenance

    Supported software and timely attention to known vulnerabilities can reduce risk.

  • Help with routine changes

    Define which content changes a plan covers and how larger requests are priced.

  • A useful record of the work

    A clear update should show what was done, outstanding issues and decisions needed from you.

Know what your maintenance plan covers

Maintenance, hosting and new development are different services, even when bought together. A useful agreement explains where one ends and another begins, so a request does not become an unexpected bill.

You own your website. We can maintain it on our hosting or in an environment you own with one of our recommended hosts. The support scope and any third-party costs should be clear from the outset.

Questions about website maintenance

  • What does website maintenance cost?

    No. Every site we build is yours to host and maintain wherever and however you like. The plan exists because most people would rather not think about it.

  • Can you maintain a website in our own hosting account?

    Yes, provided the hosting environment is with one of our recommended hosts. You can own the account while Amply maintains the website. Hosting and ongoing support are paid services.

  • What counts as a small change?

    Examples might include text changes, photographs or staff profiles. . Larger changes need their own scope.

  • Do you maintain sites you did not build?

    . Existing software, access and condition affect what can reasonably be supported.

  • What happens if the site goes down?

    . A care plan should distinguish noticing an outage from a commitment to resolve it within a particular time.

  • What if we need additional work?

    Work outside the agreed support scope is charged at an hourly or day rate. The scope of the additional work determines which is appropriate.
