Hosting & Care
The unglamorous part that keeps your site online and out of trouble.
A website needs upkeep the same way a truck needs oil changes. For sites we build, this plan covers hosting, security updates, backups, and uptime monitoring, plus small edits and one blog post a month so the site doesn't just sit unchanged for years.

Sound familiar?
What usually goes wrong
- Your site has been hacked or defaced because nobody updated it in years.
- There's no backup, so if something breaks, everything is gone.
- You don't know who to call when the site goes down, or if anyone's watching for it.
- Every small text change means waiting on a developer for weeks and paying for an hour of their time.
- The site hasn't had new content added since it launched, which Google reads as inactive.

The process
How it runs
Honest limits
- We can't promise 100% uptime. No host can. We can promise a fast response when something goes wrong.
- Small edits are included; a full redesign or new pages fall outside this plan.
- The monthly blog post helps activity and freshness. It isn't a guarantee of more traffic on its own.
Questions
Hosting & Care FAQ
What counts as a small edit?
Text changes, swapping a photo, updating hours or a phone number, that kind of thing. Bigger changes get scoped separately.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep your domain and a copy of your site's content. This isn't a contract that traps you.
Can I get this for a site someone else built?
No. Care is for sites we build, because we can only keep something secure and fast when we know exactly how it was made. If your current site is worth keeping, we can still help with your Google listing and local SEO.
Who writes the blog post?
We write it, based on your services and area, then you can review it before it goes live.
