Website maintenance

Website maintenance plans with clear monthly boundaries

Website maintenance is for businesses that want their site checked, updated and kept useful after launch, without turning every small change into a separate project.

Crawford Software Works can provide practical support for small business websites, including update checks, minor content changes, backup awareness, security basics and improvement notes where agreed.

What a maintenance plan can include

Plans can be kept light for simple brochure websites, or expanded where a site needs more regular content, technical or visibility checks.

Updates

Website and CMS checks

Checks around updates, obvious broken areas and parts of the site that need attention.

Backups

Backup awareness

Help understanding what is backed up, how often it is backed up and what can realistically be restored.

Security

Security and health checks

Practical checks around SSL, forms, login areas, stale files, plugins and other common risks.

Content

Minor content updates

Agreed small text, image or page updates so the website does not slowly become out of date.

Performance

Performance checks

Light checks for slow pages, oversized media and avoidable issues that make the site feel heavy.

Visibility

SEO, AEO and GEO notes

Practical improvement notes for search visibility, answer-led content and local relevance where included.

Practical fit

Useful when the site still needs care after launch

Maintenance suits businesses that rely on their website for trust, enquiries or information, but do not want to chase several suppliers for every small problem.

It can work for WordPress websites, clean custom websites, simple brochure sites and growing websites that need more structure over time.

Keep the plan fair and clear

Minor agreed updates can be included. Larger redesigns, new features, portals, automations or major software work should be quoted separately so the maintenance plan stays realistic.

Choose the level of support around the website

Light maintenance

Useful for simple sites that need occasional checks, minor updates and a clear person to contact.

Ongoing website care

Better for sites that need regular checks, reporting, backup awareness, security checks and content support.

Custom system support

For portals, dashboards, custom CMS tools or business workflows, support should be scoped around the actual system.
