Choosing
Which website maintenance option suits your team?
A monthly care plan suits you if you want updates, monitoring and an agreed amount of change work handled as part of the arrangement. Pay-as-you-go support suits a stable site that rarely changes, though you may wait longer for a response when something breaks. Consider how much of your site depends on forms or current content when deciding how much support to arrange.
Managed hosting gives you a single party responsible for hosting speed and uptime. Self-managed hosting gives your own IT team more direct control when it has server policies to follow. The choice affects who handles hosting work and where your team needs to keep the relevant access.
An in-house developer can take on maintenance. An outside provider fits when the website is nobody’s main job and updates or fixes need a clear owner. We learn about your business, audience and goals, then agree the scope with you, so you know which work sits with us and which remains with your team.
Market
What Canadian teams expect from website care
You might run a small or medium-sized business without an in-house developer. In that case, you need someone accountable for updates, backups and fixes, with a clear route for reporting problems.
If you run an online store, care needs to cover checkout, payments and stock synchronisation: a broken checkout can lose sales. If you pay for ads, your landing pages, forms and tracking need attention too, because a form failure can waste ad spend without an obvious warning.
Marketing teams also need a practical way to request new pages, job posts and campaign updates without starting a separate development project for every change.
Rules
What website care in Canada needs to handle
For private-sector commercial activity, federal privacy rules cover how personal information is collected, used and disclosed; Alberta, British Columbia and Quebec have their own substantially similar private-sector laws. For your contact forms, we review the information you collect and set up form fields and privacy information to reflect its intended use.
Ontario businesses and non-profits with 50 or more employees have public website accessibility requirements under AODA. Where those requirements apply to your site, we set up page layouts and content with WCAG 2.0 Level AA requirements in view when making changes.
How it runs
How website maintenance runs with us
We work remotely from India using video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. In winter, India is 9h ahead of Newfoundland and 12h30m ahead of British Columbia and Yukon; daylight saving changes the gap in some regions. A shared board keeps requests visible while your teams are working at different times.
- 01
Review
We list software versions, plugins, hosting, backups, domain expiry, user accounts and known problems. You tell us what has been causing trouble, and we rank the fixes by risk.
- 02
Set up requests
We use a single channel such as email or a ticket board. You include the page link, the exact change and screenshots where useful, so the request is clear.
- 03
Test updates
We back up the site, update a staging copy, check key pages and forms, then apply the same updates to the live site. You can identify the pages your work depends on.
- 04
Review the report
We share uptime, speed, traffic and a summary of changes. You can use it to see what was done and decide what needs attention next.
Checklist

- Account accessGather website admin, hosting, domain registrar, DNS, email and premium plugin or theme logins.

- ContactsName the person who approves changes and the person to alert first if the site goes down.
- RenewalsCollect dates for the domain, SSL certificate, hosting, premium plugin licences and email accounts.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and time involved?
The work involved changes with your site’s condition and the way it needs to be maintained.
Plugin compatibility
A WordPress site with many plugins needs regular testing as updates are applied, adding checks to the maintenance routine.
Update method
Automatic updates take less manual effort, but conflicts can go unnoticed. Testing updates on staging takes more work before they reach visitors.
Traffic and hosting
Busy sites and online stores need stronger hosting, caching and closer monitoring than sites with lighter demands.
Content requests
Text, images, new pages, blog posts and job listings each need their requested changes carried through to the site.
Avoid
Mistakes to avoid with website maintenance
Leaving the site without an owner
Assign someone to follow up on renewals, broken forms and outdated plugins before a customer has to report a problem.
Keeping the only backups on the website server
Keep a separate copy so a server failure or hack does not take the site and its backups with it.
Losing control of renewals
Move accounts out of former staff or agency personal accounts, and send reminders to a current address. An expired domain can take the site and company email offline.
Putting off updates indefinitely
Plan and test them regularly. Delay leaves known security holes open and makes the eventual catch-up update larger and more likely to break things.

Questions
Asked by businesses in Canada
Page updated 5 November 2026
How much does it cost to hire someone to maintain a website?
There is no fixed price for every site. The main drivers include the platform, the number of plugins and integrations that need checking, and the volume and urgency of content changes. A plugin-heavy CMS generally takes more update and testing work than a static or custom-coded site.
Can you maintain a website you did not build?
Yes. We start with a review, address anything urgent and then maintain the site. We also take regular backups and test restores, so a backup is checked for use in recovery rather than left as an untested file. Tell us about any problems you already know of.
What content changes and backup work are included?
We handle content changes such as new pages, projects, job posts and edits, and we take regular backups with tested restores. For a content request, describe the change you need on the relevant page; that gives us a clear task to carry through to the site.
Will I still own my website if you maintain it?
Yes. You own your domain, content and code, with no lock-in. Keep a written record of accounts, renewal dates and changes made as well. That record gives your business the access and history it needs if you later decide to switch providers.
What support do I get after the site is live?
You receive a monthly report covering uptime, speed, traffic and what changed. Read it for trends such as rising load times, growing error counts or falling form submissions. Forms also need test submissions checked against the intended inbox, since a mail setting, plugin or spam filter change can interrupt delivery.
What security work should a maintenance arrangement cover?
Security work covers software updates, a web application firewall, malware scanning, limited administrator accounts and two-factor login. It also needs a written plan for what happens if the site is compromised. Ask who holds that plan and how the people with admin access are kept to those who need it.
