Websites decay silently: unapplied updates, expired certificates, plugins drifting out of security support, backups nobody has tested. A maintenance retainer makes decay somebody’s actual job, with monitoring that catches problems before visitors do, and small fixes included rather than invoiced into oblivion.

Retainers cover one site or a small portfolio. Terms are monthly, cancellable, and scoped in writing: what is included, what is billable, and the response times you can hold to.

Questions

Asked about maintenance.

Updates, monitoring, backups plus restore drills, certificate management, and a fixed allowance of small changes, written into the retainer scope. Larger work is quoted separately at the same published rates. No surprise invoices, ever.

Yes, after an onboarding audit, the site’s health is assessed so the retainer starts from facts. If a site needs rescue work before maintenance makes sense, that is priced once, up front.

You receive a handover pack: credentials, documentation, backup archive and a status report. No hostage-taking, no exit fees. The retainer exists because it earns its cost, not because it is trapped.

Website Maintenance & Care Plans

A website nobody touches quietly stops working. Care plans keep yours fast, safe and earning.

Every website decays: plugins drift out of date, forms break silently, backups get skipped, "small changes" pile up undone. Most owners discover the decay the day the site goes down or the enquiries stop. A care plan exists so you never have that day.

What a care plan covers

  • Technical health - core/software updates, security patching, malware monitoring, uptime checks.
  • Backups that restore - daily backups, tested restores, restore-in-an-hour commitment.
  • Small edits, included - content changes, price updates, new photos, notice uploads. Message us; done same or next working day.
  • A named human - you message the person who knows your site. Not a ticket queue.
  • Monthly report - uptime, visits, enquiries, what we changed. In plain language.

Tiers

  • Hosting only ~₹500+/mo - managed hosting, SSL, backups, monitoring. For sites you maintain yourself.
  • Care ~₹1.5k+/mo - everything above plus updates, security and included small edits. The default after every build.
  • Growth ~₹6k+/mo - Care plus SEO, Google Business Profile, content and monthly reporting. For sites that must produce enquiries.
  • Partner ~₹15k+/mo - Growth plus landing pages, conversion testing and a monthly working call. For multi-location and high-ticket businesses.

Every new build includes the first month free. Plans are cancel-anytime with 30 days notice - and your site leaves with you. See what running costs in the calculator, or start a care plan.
