Long-term care, for sites we built.
Ongoing updates, monitoring, and incremental improvements for the sites we’ve shipped. Maintenance done by the studio that knows your site intimately — not a ticket queue, not a stranger reading documentation for the first time.
Three disciplines. One ongoing practice.
Updates & patches.
WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates handled on a regular cadence. Every update tested in staging before going live — never blind updates that break production.
- WordPress core updates
- Plugin and theme updates (tested)
- Security patches prioritized
- Database optimization and cleanup
Uptime & security.
Continuous monitoring of uptime, performance, and security signals. If something goes wrong, we know about it before you do — and have the context to fix it quickly.
- 24/7 uptime monitoring
- Core Web Vitals tracking
- Malware scanning & intrusion detection
- Daily offsite backups
Ongoing improvements.
Small content additions, section refinements, new landing pages — the kind of work that compounds over time. A retained monthly allowance for the ongoing care a site needs to stay sharp.
- Content additions and updates
- New sections and landing pages
- Schema and SEO refinements
- Performance re-tuning as needed
Four positions most agencies won’t take.
Maintenance is often the part of an engagement that gets handed off to the cheapest available technician. We don’t operate that way — and the differences are worth stating directly.
We only maintain what we built.
Maintenance assumes intimate knowledge of how a site was built — the theme decisions, the plugin choices, the architecture. Inheriting someone else’s build means flying blind. We don’t take that risk on your behalf.
The same people, end to end.
No handoff to a different team after launch. The studio that built your site is the studio maintaining it. Context doesn’t get lost in transition because there isn’t one.
Updates go through staging.
Every WordPress core, plugin, and theme update gets tested on a staging copy before touching production. Blind updates are how sites break — and we don’t break sites.
No ticket queue.
Maintenance clients have a direct line to the studio. Email gets answered within a business day. No support tier escalation, no SLA gymnastics — just a working relationship with the people who know your site.
Éclataur, maintained continuously.
Our flagship property runs on the same maintenance discipline we’d apply to client sites. Weekly updates, daily backups, monthly performance reviews, and small ongoing refinements that compound into a property that holds up over time.
