Who Needs Website Support in Henderson, NV

At some point in time, every Henderson website will require some form of web maintenance. It's just that the internet changes all the time. However, we don't charge a lot for Henderson web maintenance, so you'll be able to afford it! Website maintenance in Henderson might be needed for these reasons:

• When a hosting provider upgrades their servers, they may remove older versions of PHP that your Henderson website was originally developed to support. When this happens, you need to refactor your application or upgrade to a newer framework that supports the newer PHP version. You can't expect custom web functionality from the past to work forever.
• When an ecommerce platform or a content management system releases new versions, they eventually must deprecate the old versions so their teams can focus on maintaining the newer technologies. Magento 1.x store owners recently had to migrate to Magento 2.x, or an alternative ecommerce platform, because Magento 1.x was no longer maintained by Magento after it reached "End of Life". As a result, Magento 1.x ecommerce businesses in Henderson were looking for ecommerce developers to help migrate their websites.
• Whenever a website owner falls victim to malware or some other form of malicious activity, the website needs to be cleaned of malware and reviewed for security exploits. This can be a time-consuming activity, and often happens because the website owner wasn't being mindful of the first two website maintenance examples, listed above.
• You need to refresh your Henderson website content when it's outdated or doesn't explain your organization, products, or services well enough for future visitors. This type of web support is critical to ensuring your Henderson website is benefiting you.

Above and beyond just updating something, there are plenty of reasons why a website might need maintenance. Plan your budget and schedules for website support and maintenance based on your Henderson business's potential future needs.

How We Perform Henderson, NV Website Support

We have an experienced web maintenance team who puts forth great effort to understand your maintenance needs, schedule your work in a timely fashion, and follow up with your Henderson business after the tasks have been completed.

Most Henderson website maintenance services start with an email from the website owner. Your email gets routed to our ticket system and automatically gets assigned to your project manager. Anyone on our team can work on the ticket without delay, resulting in faster turnaround time.

The process for Henderson web support services that come from phone or chat is similar. The support request is entered into our ticket system by the person in the conversation with you, which allows the work order to be routed to the most appropriate web developer on our team.
