Website Improvement and Regular Maintenance
I will improve the design, structure, speed, or functionality of your existing website and help keep it secure, up to date, and easy to use.
An Existing Website Does Not Always Need to Be Rebuilt
If a website has become slow, visually outdated, or difficult to manage, a complete rebuild may not be necessary. Sometimes the greatest benefit comes from a clearer structure, a refined design, technical fixes, or more thoughtful content placement.
I will first assess the current situation and determine which changes will deliver the greatest benefit to your business and the website’s users.
How Our Collaboration Begins
1. Website Assessment
I review the website, its technical environment, and the issues you have identified. If access to the administration area is required, we will agree separately on how it will be provided.
2. Agreeing on the Scope of Work
I group the tasks and prepare a recommended order of work. Before making any changes, we agree on the scope, price, and required materials.
3. Implementing Improvements
I complete the agreed work and verify the results. If you would like regular maintenance, we will agree on the process for submitting and completing future tasks.
What Can Be Improved
Structure and Usability
I will review the menu, page order, content layout, buttons, and contact forms. Visitors will find it easier to understand your offer and complete the desired action.
Visual Design
I will refine the colours, typography, spacing, images, and interface elements. I can update individual sections or create a consistent design system for the entire website.
If the issue begins with an inconsistent brand image, we can develop a visual identity before redesigning the website.
Speed and Technical Condition
I will review the images, plugins, theme, and other elements that may slow the website down or cause errors. If necessary, I will organise software updates, backups, and security settings.
Content and Functionality
I can prepare, edit, and publish website copy, images, products, and other content, as well as add agreed sections or features. Translation and other additional services are agreed upon separately.
Mobile Version
I will check how the website works on phones and tablets. I will fix elements that overlap, are difficult to read, or are inconvenient to use on smaller screens.
Regular Website Maintenance
Regular maintenance helps identify technical issues early and reduces the risk of the website stopping working after a software update.
Depending on the agreement, maintenance may include:
- updating the website platform, theme, plugins, modules, or extensions where supported by the relevant platform;
- backup and security checks;
- troubleshooting and website monitoring;
- speed and performance checks;
- writing and editing copy and publishing content;
- updating information about services, products, or team members;
- checking contact forms and essential features;
- minor design and functionality improvements.
Before our collaboration begins, we will agree on the specific scope of work, process, and price. Tasks outside the agreed maintenance scope are treated as separate paid work.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I Need One-Off Improvements or Regular Support?
If the website’s content changes frequently or ongoing technical monitoring is required, regular maintenance and administration will be the more suitable option.
Can You Improve a Website You Did Not Build?
Yes, even if the website was built on another platform. Before starting work, I assess its technical environment, access options, and limitations. After the assessment, I will be able to determine which improvements can be implemented safely.
Does Maintenance Have to Be Ordered Every Month?
No. You can request a one-off improvement or choose an ongoing collaboration. The most suitable model depends on the website’s complexity and how frequently changes are needed.
Does Administration Include Publishing Content?
Yes, if it is included in the agreed scope of work. I can write or edit copy and publish images, products, services, and other website content.
Can I Use the Price Calculator to Estimate Improvement Costs?
The calculator is intended to estimate the approximate cost of a new website. The cost of improving and maintaining an existing website is determined after assessing its technical condition and the work required.
When Is a New Website the Better Option?
If the current website is based on outdated technology, contains many interconnected errors, or the company’s offer has changed, a complete rebuild may be the safer solution.
In this situation, we will retain the valuable content while rebuilding the structure, design, and technical foundation. Read more about the process in the new website development section.
If you would like to understand the potential budget for a new website, use the website price calculator. The calculator is intended to estimate the approximate cost of a new website, not improvement or maintenance work.
