Who Needs Website Support in Las Vegas, NV

Every Las Vegas website will need some web maintenance at some point. It's because the internet is always changing. But don't worry, our Las Vegas web maintenance costs aren't too high, so you can afford it! There are a few reasons why a website in Las Vegas might need maintenance:

• When a hosting provider upgrades their servers, they may remove older versions of PHP that your Las Vegas website was originally developed to support. That means you'll have to refactor your app or upgrade to a newer framework that supports the latest PHP release. You can't expect custom web functionality from the past to work forever.
• In order to focus on maintaining the newer version of an ecommerce platform or content management system, they eventually have to deprecate the previous releases. Magento 1.x store owners recently had to migrate to Magento 2.x or an alternative ecommerce platform because Magento 1.x had reached "End of Life" status and wouldn't be maintained or updated. As a result, Magento 1.x ecommerce businesses in Las Vegas 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• You need to refresh your Las Vegas website content when it's outdated or doesn't explain your organization, products, or services well enough for future visitors. Maintaining your Las Vegas website is key to making sure it's working for you.

There are many reasons why a website might need maintenance, other than just to update something. When planning budgets and schedules for web support and support, consider your Las Vegas business's potential future needs.

How We Perform Las Vegas, NV Website Support

Our professional web maintenance team puts in a lot of effort to understand your needs, schedule your work on time, and follow up with your Las Vegas business after the work is done.

A Las Vegas website maintenance service usually starts with an email from you. Your email gets routed into our ticket system and automatically assigned to your project manager. We can then work on the ticket without delay, which leads to faster turnaround and easier internal communication.
