WEBSITE CONTENT UPDATING + NEW SECTIONS / FUNCTIONALITY
All our websites are created in a content management system (CMS) that makes updating easy (we use WordPress with a custom-designed theme and functionality) but we can undertake the ongoing content-updating work for those who don’t wish to do it themselves. We can also add new sections and pages and/or functionality to your website when you need it.
Hourly Rate
$110/hour (work will be invoiced monthly—$150/month minimum charge)
or:
Small Work Bundle
$300 for up to 3 hours of work—prepaid and valid through December 31 of the year in which purchased.
Covers small tasks like minor text/image updates, troubleshooting, or plugin adjustments.
Time is tracked, and clients receive an update when their balance is low.
Requests exceeding the bundle will be quoted separately or require purchasing a new bundle.
WEBSITE HEALTH MAINTENANCE PACKAGES
Every website needs to be kept up to date in terms of the hosting environment software, the CMS software, plugins, users and backups (preferably regular backups to the cloud as well as to an external device).
We offer the following packages:
One-on-One Backup and Update Setup Session
This session is for people who wish to use a backup plugin like Updraft to make backups of their website manually or on a schedule but who don’t feel confident to do the initial setup and configuration to save to the Cloud themselves.
$249
Essential Backup and Update Package
Hosting environment and WordPress/plugins kept up to date and backups are regularly created and stored securely in the Cloud.
$499
Comprehensive Information Website Backup and Site Health Package
Hosting environment and WordPress/plugins kept up to date, custom theme files and javascripts are checked for deprecated code and updated and backups are regularly created and stored securely in the Cloud.
$749
E-Commerce Website Complete Health Checkup and Backup Service
This package is for custom-designed websites that use WooCommerce (which require WooCommerce files to be separately updated). All code is maintained to high-performance standards and backups are regularly created and stored securely in the Cloud.
$949
WEBSITE AUDIT PACKAGES
Over time, a less than optimally-maintained website loses its ability to get or hold attention and website audits provide the diagnostics to identify where help is needed.
We offer the following three levels of website audits:
A basic SEO audit covers essential technical SEO, basic on-page SEO, and a high-level content review.
$1,500
An intermediate-level website SEO audit includes everything in the Basic SEO Audit plus analysis of image alt-texts, structured data, javascript rendering issues, and more of an in-depth look at content quality and relevance, content gaps and opportunities and user engagement.
$2,500
An advanced-level website SEO audit covers all aspects of the Intermediate SEO Audit with additional depth and breadth—including competitive analysis comparing your website to top competitors and a social media audit evaluating presence, engagement, and top-performing content.
$4,000
USER TESTING
One or more live user-testers will explore your website using the personas of your ideal visitors with assigned “intentions”. These sessions reveal issues that are limiting your website’s effectiveness. Video recordings of all sessions are provided.
$300+
HACK CLEAN-UP
Not actually a package, as every hack is a bit different, but we can clean your website of hacked files in the unfortunate event that you get hacked. Easiest if you have a recent backup of all your files and database.
$300+
WEBSITE HOSTING
If we have designed your website, we can host it for you on a shared hosting server. To be able to offer more affordable pricing than regular hosting companies we offer five-year packages only and tech support is not included (but may be added via a health site maintenance package).
Basic small-medium website: $300/5 years
(Maximum storage capacity: 50GB)
E-commerce website: $350/5 years
(Maximum storage capacity: 100GB)
Artist website with archival functionality: $350/5 years
(Maximum storage capacity: 100GB)
We also recommend Dreamhost.com as a superior hosting company who provide excellent hosting services at very reasonable prices.
