Care plans

Hosting, monitoring, backups, patching and a monthly allowance of changes. Every site we build is on one, and this page is what that actually buys.

  1. BuildWhat your package pays for.
  2. LaunchYour care plan starts here, with the first months included.
  3. MonitorUptime checks, and a published uptime commitment.
  4. MaintainAutomated backups, security patches, dependency updates and a published response time.
  5. GrowReports, a staging site and strategy calls, on the tiers that include them.

Your care plan

Is this what you need?

What a plan is for

  • Keeping the site fast, patched and online without you having to think about any of it.
  • Getting changes made by asking, rather than by learning a dashboard first.
  • Having somebody to call who already knows how your site is built.
  • Knowing a restore has been tested rather than assuming a backup exists.

Things worth knowing before you sign

  • There is a twelve-month minimum term, then it runs monthly.
  • Every build we sell includes a plan. We do not launch sites we are not looking after — an unpatched site with our name on it is a liability we would rather not carry.
  • A plan is not a redesign. Big changes are quoted as change requests, and small ones come out of your monthly allowance.
  • We do not take over sites we did not build. We cannot promise uptime on something we have not seen.

How a plan is priced

Three parts, and your bill shows them separately rather than as one unexplained number.

  1. A base tier, which is the plan you choose and what it entitles you to.
  2. Scope, because a five-page brochure site and a four-hundred-product catalogue are not the same thing to look after.
  3. Usage, if you go well beyond your bandwidth or storage allowance — and you can see your usage in your dashboard rather than finding out from a bill.

Paying annually saves the equivalent of two months, calculated from the two published prices rather than advertised as a round percentage.
