More often than not, web companies go out of business and for this reason some clients might be stuck with a website that they need updating. On the other hand, some clients might not be too happy with their current web company and want to use someone else. Either way there’s a case for people looking for website maintenance from time to time.

There are many various types of website maintenance and we are going to try and cover as much as possible on this blog, feel free to contact us if you are looking for any of the below maintenance services.

Content Updates

One of the most popular web maintenance services is to actually update the existing content on a website. Say for example you have a website with some outdated information or services you no longer provide – content updates will refresh any pages on the website you want to bring up to date.
Content updates in the form of web maintenance is one of the most easier and straight forward parts of maintaining your website as it’s normally a case of simple updating some images, removing some text or adding more.
You can also safely assume that adding brand new pages onto a website is also counted in “content updates” part of our website maintenance services in Canada.

  • Some example content updates are:
  • Slideshows & Images
  • Blogs & Text Content
  • Links & Contact Forms
  • Review & Update SEO

Core & Plugin Updates

Maybe you are using a system like WordPress or Joomla that hasn’t been updated in a long while? Even though the likes of WordPress can be easily updated you may have some custom work carried out previously that might actually cause issues when the site gets updated. When we carry out updates we will either back up the entire site and carry out a major update and work on any issues that arise, or we will on a “case by case” basis update all the individual components of the site (plugins, themes etc) whilst testing at each stage.

Either way, the website system you use, the plugins you use – all need updating! Without regular updates you leave your website, customers and data open to security flaws and hackers.
