Maintain & protect · Ongoing support

Ongoing website support from a developer who already knows your site.

Monthly developer time for content changes, fixes, small features, plugin decisions and technical questions, estimated before we start and done on staging where it matters.

A developer who already knows your site

In short

Ongoing website support gives you regular developer time for the jobs that come up between projects: content changes, fixes, small features, plugin decisions and technical questions, handled by people who already know how your site is built.

Most businesses don’t need a full-time developer, but they do need one reliably: when a form needs another field, a landing page needs building for a campaign, a plugin needs replacing, or a supplier asks a technical question about your website. Without a regular arrangement, each of those becomes a search for someone new who has to learn the site from scratch.

Support vs maintenance

Maintenance

Preventive · the same every month
  • Updates, backups, monitoring, security
  • Keeps the site healthy
  • Report each month

Support

Reactive and creative · what you need
  • Changes, fixes, small features, advice
  • Moves the site forward
  • Hours used as requests come in

Many clients have both: maintenance keeps the foundations sound, support hours handle everything else. Either can be taken on its own.

What you can ask for

Content and page changes

New pages, layout tweaks, landing pages, updated menus and footers.

Fixes

Anything that stops working, from a broken form to a layout glitch.

Plugins and integrations

Choosing, setting up or replacing plugins; connecting CRMs, email tools and booking systems.

Small improvements

Speed tweaks, accessibility fixes, conversion improvements on key pages.

SEO housekeeping

Redirects, titles, descriptions, structured data and Search Console issues.

Advice

A second opinion on a quote, a supplier’s request or a technical decision.

How requests work

01

Send the request

Email with what you need.

02

We confirm

Estimate and timing before starting.

03

Work on staging

Where it affects the site.

04

You review

Check and approve.

05

Deploy

At a quiet time.

06

Logged

Hours and changes recorded.

Larger requests get a short written scope first. Anything that would use more time than you have available is confirmed with you before we start, never added quietly to the bill.

How support time is arranged

Support is arranged as a block of developer time each month, sized to how much your site usually needs. The arrangement sets out, in writing:

  • how many hours are included each month
  • how quickly requests are acknowledged and typically scheduled
  • what happens to unused time and to requests over the allowance
  • which requests count as urgent

We’d rather agree these clearly at the start than argue about them later.

Working alongside agencies and in-house teams

If you’re an agency or have an in-house marketer, we can act as your technical back-up: handling the development, server and migration work while you look after design, content and the client relationship. We agree upfront who talks to whom, where requests come from, and how work is handed over.

What support time doesn't cover

Support time suits jobs measured in hours. Larger pieces of work (a redesign, a migration, a new store, a big SEO project) get their own written scope and quote, so your monthly allowance isn’t swallowed by one project. Third-party licences and services are paid by you, in your name.

Every request and the time it took is logged, so you can see exactly where the hours went, and we can suggest a smaller or larger allowance if your usage changes.

An example month of support

Illustrative scenario

A training company using support hours

In one month: a new course landing page is built from an existing template; the booking form gains a dietary-requirements field and its confirmation email is updated; a slow, abandoned events plugin is replaced with a maintained one, with past events migrated; and a supplier’s request to add a tracking script is reviewed and implemented in a way that doesn’t slow the site. Each request is estimated, approved, done on staging where relevant, and logged.

Composite example to explain the process. Not a specific client.

What we'll need to start

Site access

A WordPress administrator account and hosting access.

A short tour

What the site is for, who edits it, and what’s caused problems before.

Who can send requests

So we know whose instructions to act on.

Typical volume

Roughly how much changes each month, so the time allowance fits.

Frequently asked questions

Response expectations depend on your support arrangement and are set out in writing. Urgent problems like a broken site always come first.

We’ll estimate it and ask before going over your allowance. Nothing is added without your approval.

Yes. We agree who sends requests and how designs are handed over.

Not necessarily, but they work well together: maintenance prevents problems, support time handles changes.

Yes, for technical and on-page housekeeping. Larger SEO projects are scoped separately.
