If you purchase a website maintenance retainer, there are no contracts, hidden fees, expirations, or minimum deductions.

The Platforms We Maintain for McKinney, TX Websites

With years of experience developing websites for McKinney businesses (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 firm for McKinney websites tends to service only the following platforms:

• McKinney WordPress Web Support
• McKinney WooCommerce Website Support
• McKinney Shopify Web Maintenance

As a web maintenance company, we used to maintain and support Joomla and Magento websites for McKinney-area businesses. However, we chose not to use those platforms so our web support experts could focus on training and support within the more popular platforms.
