Keep Your Website Updated and Working

A website is software. Plugins age, forms break and security holes appear. Maintenance handles the monthly work — and the small content changes you keep meaning to make.

Works with websites built by Redvent or anyone else. Month to month, 30 days notice.

How healthy is your website?

We check speed, security, backups, broken links and mobile display — and send a short plain-language report within two working days.

Minor content changes

What Counts as a Minor Change?

Minor changes include:

  • Replacing supplied text
  • Replacing an existing image
  • Updating contact details

  • Updating operating hours
  • Correcting a website link

New pages, redesigns, new functionality, large uploads and custom development are quoted separately. Unused support time does not carry over to the following month.

How it works

Website Care in Four Steps

1

Select

Choose the maintenance plan that suits your website.

2

Provide Access

Give Redvent the required WordPress and hosting access.

3

Assessment

We check the website before maintenance begins.

4

Maintain

We perform the work included in your selected package.

Maintenance questions

Can you maintain a website Redvent did not build?

Yes, after a free health check to confirm access and condition. Most WordPress websites can be taken on immediately.

What if I need more changes than my plan includes?

Extra time is billed in 30-minute blocks, or you can move up a plan for that month.

Is hosting included?

No. Maintenance works with your existing hosting or Redvent hosting. Moving to Redvent hosting is free for maintenance customers.
