• Adding new web pages as you release new products or services.
• Freshen up your blog with new content.
• Rearranging your Washington website's navigation menu.

• Providing a solution to any other website problem.

Those services are just a taste of what Washington website maintenance might look like. In fact, Washington web support is really anything a website designer or online marketing professional does to your website to change it in some manner.

Our website maintenance and support firm is happy to provide Auburn, Bellevue, Bellingham, Everett, Kennewick, Kent, Kirkland, Redmond, Renton, Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma, and Vancouver with fast website support services.

Pricing for Washington Website Maintenance

Our web maintenance services start at $119.50/hour; however, we offer reduced rates as low as $99.95/hour for pre-purchased blocks of time.

If you opt for a web maintenance retainer, there are no minimum deductions, contracts, expirations, or hidden fees.

Please bear in mind that it's unusual for us to receive tasks that require less than 10 minutes to finish, as the task review process, response to emails or phone calls, feedback, and logging typically take up 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 website maintenance retainer, ensuring that you stay aware of your usage.

The Platforms We Maintain for Washington Websites

We have a diverse team of web designers and web developers, for Washington businesses, who have been immersed in multiple website platforms over the years. Having said that, it's better to master a few platforms than try to specialize in them all. Therefore, we tend to only maintain Washington websites on these platforms:

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

We've managed Joomla and Magento platforms for Washington organizations in the past. However, we chose not to use those platforms so our web maintenance professionals could focus on training and support within the more popular platforms.

Example Web Support Service List for Washington Businesses

We are often asked for detailed examples of Washington web maintenance requests that might come up after the launch of a website. The following are some examples of Washington web support plans we've provided in the past.

Easy Washington Website Changes

Changes to your Washington website could be as easy as updating a paragraph, swapping images, or adding a new page. These are just normal, routine website support tasks to keep content fresh for both search engines and visitors.

Washington Site Performance Improvements

We can analyze your Washington website for hosting concerns, caching glitches, unoptimized images, console errors, broken links, poor queries, and more if it's slow. User experience and search engine optimization will both benefit from better page load times.

Platform Updates / Security Patches

It's important to keep your Washington website updated if it runs on a CMS like WordPress. This helps improve security and functionality - sometimes the updates are relatively quick to perform, which is a win-win!

Plugin / Extension Upgrades

It's important to update plugins and extensions on your Washington website if they were developed and maintained by a third-party. The idea is similar to updating the CMS platform since it fixes security and functionality glitches.

Google Search Console Fixes

Did Google Search Console tell you about a coverage problem? If so, we can fix the coverage issues, and let you know how it went. Make Google happy, and you'll rank higher throughout Washington and beyond!

Setup Structured Data

When you search Google organically, have you noticed reviews or prices in the search results? This is brought to you by structured data, which is a standardized way of describing the content on the web page, whether it be of a nearby organization in Washington, and ecommerce product or some other common data type.

Implement Open Graph on Your Website

When people share links of your Washington business on social media, your website will look better if you add Open Graph Tags. These tags help define an image, title, and description for each page on your website.

Add Google Tag Manager

Are you interested in adding Google Tag Manager to your website to help you manage custom scripts more easily? No problem at all! We can add Google Tag Manager to your Washington website and even teach you how to use it.

Setup Conversion Tracking

If you are interested in understanding the benefit of the digital marketing campaign for your Washington website, it is important to setup conversion tracking. It'll help you understand where your conversions come from, like direct traffic, referral links, organic search, or PPC advertising.

Optimize Images

Do you have a Washington site that's slow because of large images? Not a problem! All your images can be compressed by our tools, and we can even setup recurring compression for newly added images!

Setup Live Chat

Is your website ready for live chat? Our experts can help you pick the right live chat system, install the tracking code, and customize the design to match your Washington company branding!

Review Error Logs for Issues

Have you noticed large error_log files on your hosting account? To stop recurring error messages, we can diagnose the problem and update programming code.

Integrate reCaptcha on Contact Forms

We can set up a checkbox or invisible reCaptcha to help minimize unwanted submissions on your Washington website.

Implement a Caching Plugin

Looking to install a caching plugin on your Washington website, but not sure how to configure it? We can help recommend caching plugins, or just install and configure them for you!

Send Website Emails Over SMTP

We can configure your contact form and website platform to send emails through an SMTP account instead of PHP mail to improve email deliverability.

Restrict Malicious IP Addresses

Is your Washington website being bombarded with fake orders, contact submissions or live chats from a specific network? Our team can help set up IP restrictions so your website doesn't get hit with as much malicious traffic.

Create Website Backups

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

Create a Development Website

It is often recommended that you setup a development or staging website before proceeding with a major update or extension installation. If you'd like help creating and managing that development / staging site, just let us know!

Implement A/B Testing

Do you prefer to make design modifications based on statistical data regarding how users interact with your Washington web page? If so, we can help you implement A/B testing to gather data to help inform you of the best choice between two or more design layouts.

Create 301 Redirects

Are you launching a new website or removing pages from your website? You should create 301 redirects for your Washington website. We've seen businesses in and around Washington lose huge amounts of organic traffic due to widespread broken pages. We can help you create 301 redirects within .htaccess files, nginx templates, and CMS platforms.

Provide Website Training

Do you need help learning how to make changes to your Washington website? If your Washington website was developed in a platform we work within, such as WordPress or WordPress, we'll be happy to help!

Questions to Ask Washington Website Maintenance Firms

Before signing up for any Washington website support package, it is important to ask the Washington web maintenance firm some questions about how their services work. It'll give you a better idea of the relationship you'll have with the Washington web support team before you pay them, give them website access, and give them full access to your hosting. Here are some easy questions to ask:

• Can you tell me how you handle website security? Do you run website security scans for businesses?
• What is the turnaround time for Washington web maintenance requests?
• Are you outsourcing your Washington website maintenance services?
• How much does Washington website support cost?
• Are there any minimum deductions or minimum billable expenses for Washington website updates?
• What are your normal hours of operation?
• When there are new updates on my platform, will you let me know?

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