Website Maintenance and Support

 

Protect your website from security risks and potential site failure with our monthly maintenance service.

The average website owner does not think about website maintenance.  It is rarely top of mind, and for the most part viewed as either a necessary or unnecessary business expense.  

A website contains a database and several pieces of software all of which resides on a web server.  Just like the software on your personal computer, it needs to be updated from time to time.  Website maintenance, then, is the practice of updating the software that runs your website, and can include, updating the software that runs on the web server where your website is hosted.

The criticality of website maintenence is to keep it up-to-date so that:

  • Vulnerability to malware is kept at a minimum
  • The many pieces of software on your website are kept syncronized to compatible operating versions
  • Keep the website compliant to the ever changing search engine algorithm
