Website Management in Perth, WA

Professional Website Maintenance & Upgrades

Many of our web development clients choose to have us manage their websites and make intermittent updates whenever needed. Although in many cases, it’s possible to update the website yourself, it’s not worth the hassle unless you are familiar with the process. Rather than attempt to make updates themselves, clients just email the required changes and we normally get it done within 2 business days (for small website updates).

If you have a website that needs regular updating, you can easily maintain most of the site yourself with WordPress and simply get us to help whenever you get stuck or need custom programming done. WordPress is very user friendly and was originally made for people who can’t build a website using proper code. Nowadays, even most professional Web Developers use or consider using WordPress to develop and manage websites.

For the ~100 websites we maintain, we simply keep a work log file and record any modifications made upon request. Maintenance can include all our services including programming, design, development, seo, graphics etc. Our charges are currently from $40 to $80 per hour (+ GST for Australian Clients) and billed in 15 minute blocks.

Although clients could sometimes be taught how to make the changes themselves, most prefer to have us take care of this for them. If a client is not familiar with web development, they may consume several hours of their time when we could possibly make the changes for them in just 15 minutes. This takes the worry off our clients shoulders and allows them to concentrate on running their business.

Note: The product databases used with our online shopping websites are very easily updated from our clients end. Most of our clients are now taking care of this themselves.

Requesting changes only requires a phonecall or an email from someone authorised within the organisation. If plausible, we can provide an estimate of how long each change is going to take. An invoice is sent every 3,6,9 or 12 months depending on the amount of work that has been logged.

The client file is made available to the client upon request. It is simply a text file that is date stamped each time we make changes. We log details about what is done and how much time is spent on each set of requested changes.
