Low-maintenance website upkeep

Many business owners treat buying a website like buying a computer: pay the invoice, launch the site and assume that's the end of it. But many websites need constant care, which leaves people asking: how much does website maintenance cost over time?

With database-driven sites such as WordPress, maintenance can be an ongoing expense. You may need to pay someone to fix broken page elements, apply security updates or sort out plugin conflicts.

Why static websites change everything

Because we build low-maintenance static websites, your ongoing upkeep costs stay low:

• No software to break: there are no plugins to update and no software engine to crash. Your pages stay exactly as they should be.
• Predictable, minimal fees: your regular costs are your yearly domain name renewal and hosting. The first year of both is included in our £350 package.
• Simple updates: need to change a phone number, update a price or add a new photo? Just send it to us and we'll make the change, with no code for you to touch. See our hosting and care page.
