Website Maintenance Packages for Small Businesses

For most UK small businesses, website maintenance costs between £50 and £150 per month depending on what's included. Our Care package starts at £80/month and covers security, performance, uptime, and reporting. Care+ at £150/month adds content changes, automation monitoring, and quarterly strategy calls. To put it in context, a single emergency fix from a broken plugin or security breach typically costs £200–£400 — more than a month of either package.

At minimum, any decent maintenance package should cover software and plugin updates, security monitoring, regular backups, and uptime tracking. Our packages go further — we include monthly performance checks, plain-English reporting, and break-fix support at no extra cost. Care+ adds content updates, lead flow monitoring, and a quarterly strategy call. The key question to ask any provider: if something breaks after an update, is the fix included? With us, it always is.

If your website generates enquiries, takes bookings, or represents your business to potential customers — yes. A website care plan is the difference between catching a broken contact form in 24 hours and losing three weeks of leads before anyone notices. 43% of UK businesses experienced a cyber breach last year. A care plan isn't an optional extra — it's how you protect a business asset that works for you around the clock.

Yes — and WordPress sites need regular maintenance more than most. The WordPress ecosystem recorded nearly 8,000 new vulnerabilities last year, primarily in third-party plugins. We handle core updates, plugin and theme updates, PHP version compatibility, database optimisation, and security hardening. If you're running WooCommerce, we also monitor checkout flows and payment integrations. We maintain WordPress websites for small businesses across the UK.

Hosting is where your website lives — the server that keeps it online. Maintenance is keeping your website healthy — updates, security, performance, and content. Your hosting company keeps the server running. We keep your website working. Most hosts don't update your plugins, test your forms, check your page speed, or tell you when something's broken. That's what website maintenance covers. Our packages work alongside your existing hosting — no lock-in, no forced migration.

Yes. We'll start with a site audit to understand the platform, hosting setup, and any existing issues — then bring it under our care. If there are problems that need fixing before we can take over maintenance, we'll tell you upfront and quote separately for the remediation work. We currently maintain sites built on WordPress, Astro, and static HTML.

Email or message us. Describe what you need — update a price, swap a photo, add a new service page — and we'll get it done. No support tickets, no portals, no logging into a CMS. Care covers bug fixes and technical work. Care+ includes up to 5 hours of content changes and website improvements per month.

We fix it. If your site goes down, gets compromised, or something stops working, we're on it. We monitor your site proactively, so in most cases we'll spot and resolve a problem before you even notice it. Break-fix support is included in both packages — you won't get an invoice for emergency work.

Rolling monthly after an initial 3-month commitment. After that, cancel with 30 days' notice. We don't lock people in — if we're doing a good job, you'll stay because you want to. The 3-month minimum gives us enough time to complete an initial audit, resolve any inherited issues, and establish a proper maintenance rhythm.

Security patches and plugin updates should be applied weekly — or as soon as they're released for critical vulnerabilities. Performance checks and content reviews work well on a monthly cycle. A full site audit covering broken links, outdated content, and SEO health should happen quarterly. Our maintenance packages handle all of this on a structured schedule so nothing gets missed.
