These are just a few of the South Carolina website support packages we offer. In fact, South Carolina web maintenance is basically anything a website designer or internet marketer does to your website.

Our web maintenance and support firm is happy to provide Aiken, Charleston, Columbia, Florence, Greenville, Hilton Head Island, Mount Pleasant, Myrtle Beach, North Charleston, Rock Hill, and Summerville with fast website support services.

Pricing for South Carolina Website Maintenance

The cost of our web maintenance services begins at $119.50/hour, but discounts are available for pre-purchased blocks of time, which can lower the hourly rate to as low as $99.95.

With the purchase of a website maintenance retainer, there are no hidden fees, contracts, minimum deductions, or expirations.

Kindly note that we seldom encounter tasks that take less than 10 minutes to complete, as reviewing an email or receiving a phone call, working on the task, providing feedback, and logging the task usually requires at least 10 minutes.

Our team will furnish you with a monthly update to inform you of the remaining time balance on your pre-purchased web support retainer, ensuring that you stay aware of your usage.

The Platforms We Maintain for South Carolina Websites

With years of experience developing websites for South Carolina organizations (and those in other areas of the country), our web designers and web developers have been immersed in multiple platforms. That said, it is better to become a master of a handful of platforms rather than try to specialize in them all. For that reason, our web maintenance company for South Carolina websites tends to service only the following platforms:

• South Carolina WordPress Web Support
• South Carolina WooCommerce Website Support
• South Carolina Shopify Web Maintenance

We've managed Joomla and Magento platforms for South Carolina companies in the past. The reason we moved away from those platforms was to let our web support specialists focus more on training and support.

Example Web Maintenance Service List for South Carolina Businesses

After the launch of a website, we're often asked for detailed examples of South Carolina website maintenance requests. Here are several examples of South Carolina web support services we've been asked to perform in the past and would be more than happy to provide to you!

Basic South Carolina Website Edits

Changes to your South Carolina website could be as basic as updating a paragraph, swapping images, or adding a new page. This is just normal, routine web maintenance to keep content fresh for both search engines and visitors.

South Carolina Page Speed Improvements

We can analyze your South Carolina website for hosting concerns, caching glitches, unoptimized images, console errors, broken links, poor queries, and more if it's slow. It'll help improve page load times, which will make users and search engines happy.

Platform Upgrades / Security Patches

If your South Carolina website is running on a content management system, like WordPress, it is important to keep the platform updated. This helps improve security and functionality - sometimes the upgrades are relatively quick to perform, which is a win-win!

Plugin / Extension Updates

It's important to update your South Carolina website's plugins and extensions to reflect the latest changes by the developers. It's similar to updating the CMS platform since it helps patch security and functionality problems.

Fixing Search Console Issues

Did you get a report from Google Search Console telling you about a coverage issue? If so, we can review the coverage concerns, fix the glitches, and update you on the results. Make Google happy, and you'll rank higher throughout South Carolina and beyond!

Implement Structured Data

When you search Google organically, have you noticed reviews or prices in the search results? This is structured data, which is a standardized way of describing content on the web, whether it's a local company in South Carolina or an ecommerce product.

Implement Open Graph on Your Website

Adding Open Graph Tags to your website will help search engines better understand your page content and improve the appearance of your website in social media platforms when people share links of your South Carolina organization.

Add Live Chat

Would you like to try live chat? We can make recommendations on the best live chat systems for your business requirements, install the tracking code, and configure the design to match the branding of your South Carolina business!

Restrict Malicious IP Addresses

Is your South Carolina website getting fake orders, contact submissions, or live chats? If you want to protect your website from malicious traffic, we can help by implementing IP restrictions.

Create Website Backups

Do you want to create a backup of your South Carolina website? We can help you create one-time or scheduled backups that store locally or at an offsite location.

Questions to Ask South Carolina Website Support Companies

Ask the South Carolina website maintenance agency some questions about their services before you sign up for a package. This will help you get a better idea of the relationship you will have with the South Carolina website support team before you give them money, provide them website access, and give them complete access to your website for one of their website maintenance packages. Let's go over some easy questions to ask:

• Can you tell me how you handle website security? Do you run website security scans for customers?
• When can I expect an average South Carolina web support request to be completed?
• Are you outsourcing your South Carolina website support packages?
• How much does South Carolina web maintenance cost?
• Are there minimum deductions or minimum billable expenses for South Carolina website updates?

• Will you keep me informed about new updates within my platform?

We find it beneficial to run these questions by any South Carolina website services company before subscribing to their website maintenance packages, since it will provide much better understanding for you regarding the future relationship, the security of your website, and the expected turnaround time for important maintenance requests.
