Website Maintenance and Management

Website maintenance and management for businesses that want their website kept secure, up to date and working, without hiring someone to do it.

Most businesses do not need a full-time web developer, but a website still needs regular care. Software and plugins need updating, security issues need fixing quickly, content goes out of date, and backups need to be taken. Our website maintenance and management service takes care of this for you, on a monthly retainer based on the hours your website needs.

We maintain WordPress websites and custom-built websites. Websites hosted with Bluescope are backed up every day.

What Website Maintenance Includes

Backups and Restores

Websites hosted with Bluescope are backed up every day, with 30 days of backups kept. If something goes wrong, we can restore your website, usually within minutes.

Updates

We keep WordPress, themes, plugins and other software up to date, so known security issues are fixed promptly.

Text & Image Edits

We update text and images on your website, using the content you provide.

Blog Updates

Send us your blog or news post and we will add it to your website, formatted and ready to publish.

New Page Creation

Launching a new product or service? We create the page and link it from the rest of your website.

Monitor Uptime

We monitor your website so that if it goes down we know about it and can act quickly.

Why Regular Maintenance Matters

Most security problems on WordPress websites come from themes and plugins that have not been updated. Attackers look for websites running old versions with known weaknesses, so a website that is left alone becomes more of a risk every month.

Regular maintenance also keeps your website fast and working properly, so visitors can find what they need and enquiry forms reach you.

Who It Suits

Our website maintenance and management service suits businesses that do not have a web developer on staff, or whose team would rather spend its time on the business than on the website.

If your business already has a Managed IT Services agreement, website administration is included in it.

What if my website is hacked or stops working?

If your website is hosted with Bluescope, we restore it from the latest good backup, usually within minutes. If you have a support agreement with us, we then investigate and fix the cause. Restores are included for clients on our website maintenance and management service, a Managed Services Agreement or a Bluescope Direct Support package. For hosting-only customers, a restore may be chargeable. A restore puts your website back as it was. It does not find out why something went wrong. Investigating and repairing a hacked or broken website is only carried out for clients with a support agreement in place: our website maintenance and management service, a Managed Services Agreement or a Bluescope Direct Support package.
