Common questions
What is website maintenance?
Website maintenance is the ongoing process of updating, monitoring, and improving a website to keep it functioning well. It may include things like software updates, security checks, backups, performance improvements, and troubleshooting broken features. Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your website and reduce avoidable technical issues.
How much does website maintenance cost in St. Louis?
The cost of a website maintenance plan depends on several factors: your site’s size, its complexity, the software you use, and particular maintenance requirements. A straightforward WordPress website with a few pages requires less maintenance than a custom-built site with ecommerce capabilities or third-party integrations. At St. Louis Web Design Company, our website maintenance packages cost anywhere from under $200 and up to $1,000 or more depending on your needs.
How often does my website need maintenance?
At a minimum, your website should undergo routine maintenance at least once a quarter. However, St. Louis Web Design Company highly recommends monthly site maintenance to stay ahead of security risks and maintain hassle-free operation.
Can St. Louis Web Design Company maintain a website that another company built?
Yes, our developers can evaluate sites developed by other website maintenance agencies or independent developers. We’ll audit your existing platform, hosting environment, integrations, and administrative access to determine which maintenance services we can offer. You don’t necessarily need to rebuild your entire site to improve its functionality or reliability.
Does website maintenance help with SEO?
Yes. Website maintenance supports several factors that can influence search engine performance: page load speeds, mobile usability, broken links, and site crawlability. Maintaining a functional, accessible website helps provide a better experience for visitors and shows search engines your site is trustworthy. Remember, though: An ongoing SEO strategy and content development are separate from routine technical maintenance.
