Summary
FAQs
What happens if my site goes down or has an emergency?
Maintenance retainer clients get priority support for urgent issues. I'll work to resolve critical problems as quickly as possible and keep you updated throughout the process.
How many content updates are included each month?
The retainer includes reasonable content updates—typically 1-2 hours worth of changes per month. Larger projects like new page creation or major redesigns would be quoted separately.
Do you provide hosting as part of this service?
Yes! For most small to medium business websites, I can include reliable hosting as part of the monthly retainer cost. This covers standard business websites with typical traffic levels. For high-traffic sites or specialized hosting requirements, we'd discuss custom hosting solutions separately.
What if I need more work than what's included?
Any work beyond the monthly scope is handled at my standard hourly rate, but retainer clients receive priority scheduling and discounted rates for additional projects.
Can I pause or cancel the retainer?
Yes, you can pause or cancel with 30 days' notice. However, I recommend maintaining consistent care for optimal site performance and security.
How do I request updates or report issues?
I provide a simple system for submitting requests—usually a shared project management tool or email system where you can easily communicate what you need.
Do you work on sites you didn't originally build?
Absolutely! I can take over maintenance for any site. There may be an initial audit period to familiarize myself with your site's setup and identify any existing issues.
What's included in the monthly reports?
Reports cover site performance metrics, security status, completed maintenance tasks, content updates made, and recommendations for improvements or optimizations.
How quickly do you respond to maintenance requests?
Non-urgent requests are typically handled within 1-2 business days. Emergency issues receive immediate attention during business hours.
