Why Do Websites Need Maintenance?
Technology moves fast. Your website relies on dozens of important software components, and we ensure that every aspect stays up to date. Along with security, monitoring, and backups – and our full coverage guarantee – you are fully protected from the countless issues a website can experience!
We Provide:
Software Updates
Just like your mobile device and computer, your website runs dozens of critical processes and software that require regular updates. The updates not only improve performance and prevent breakages, but help guard against the swarms of malware that attempt to compromise your site on a daily basis.
Malware Protection
Up to 80% of website traffic can be bots and crawlers, constantly scanning for vulnerabilities. Without maintenance, it’s only a matter of time before they find one. Their goal is to hack, control, steal data, or inject malware. Cleanup can be difficult, and Google may block your site, damaging your reputation and business.
24/7 Monitoring
We monitor your site 24/7, ready to respond to crashes, malware incidents, or unusual activity in a timely manner. We also keep an eye on resource usage, ensuring your site runs as fast and efficiently as possible.

The Most Common Risks of Unmaintained Websites
A poorly maintained website leads to a diminished brand, and loss of user trust. Broken features, security warnings, or slow performance will make visitors question the professionalism and reliability of your business.
Outdated Software
The software powering your site will start to fall out of date within a few weeks, leading to security vulnerabilities, performance issues, and broken functionality.
Malware and Hacking
Security holes from outdated software often lead to malware injections or hacking. Cleanup can be very difficult, and Google may even block your site.
Crashes & Data Corruption
Outdated websites are susceptible to data corruption, potentially breaking the site entirely. Without proper backups, the website could be lost permanently.
Incompatibility
Old code and outdated software eventually become incompatible with modern browsers and devices, causing slow performance, broken features, and an inconsistent user experience.
Website Downtime
An unmaintained website is more prone to unexpected downtime, often without the owner’s knowledge. This can result in lost business and a damaged reputation until the issue is resolved.
Decreased SEO and Speed
Search engines notice a stagnant website, and increasing issues. An unmaintained site suffers lower rankings, decreased visibility, reduced traffic, and ultimately fewer customers.
