WordPress support Darwin businesses can count on, month to month
My website maintenance Darwin plans keep your WordPress site updated, backed up and watched for security problems. Plans start at $19 a month with no lock in contract.
Small regular updates prevent big expensive problems
A WordPress site is made of three parts that all get updated separately. WordPress itself, the theme that controls the design and the plugins that add features. Each one releases fixes and security patches through the year.
Skip those updates for long enough and two things happen. The site starts breaking as parts fall out of step with each other. Then hackers find the gaps. Most of the hacked sites I clean up had plugins that were months or years out of date.
A maintenance plan takes all of that off your plate. I run the updates, test the site afterwards, keep backups and send you a short report so you know it has been done.
Month to month with 30 days notice to cancel
All prices include GST. Every website I build gets the first year free. I can also take on sites built by other developers too.

The everyday jobs that keep a site useful
New prices, staff changes, holiday hours or a fresh photo gallery added for you.
Scans for malware and suspicious changes with patches applied quickly.
Caching, image compression and database clean ups to keep pages loading fast.
Dead links found and fixed so visitors and Google do not hit errors.
If something goes wrong the site can be rolled back to a working copy.
Page titles, descriptions and sitemaps kept in order as the site changes.
Questions about email, domains, forms or plugins answered by phone or email.
Honest guidance on which plugins to add, replace or remove.
Remote help that fits around your work
Plenty of my maintenance clients are flat out during the build up and the dry season and do not have time to think about their website. That is the point of a plan. Updates happen in the background, reports land in your inbox and you only hear from me when something needs a decision.
Because everything is handled remotely, it makes no difference if you are in Casuarina, Coolalinga or Katherine. When you need a change, an email with the details is usually all it takes. For bigger jobs a quick video call with screen sharing works well.
If your site has already been hit by malware, start with hacked website repair. If it is simply old and tired, a website redesign may be better value than patching it up.
Taking over a site someone else built is fine
1
I log in, take a full backup and check versions, plugins and any security issues.
2
Overdue updates are applied carefully and the site is tested after each step.
3
Backups, scans and monitoring are scheduled to match your chosen plan.
4
Updates run on schedule and you get a report showing what was done.

Website maintenance in Darwin with Website Design Darwin costs $19, $59, $99 or $189 a month including GST, depending on how often updates, backups and security scans run. Every plan is month to month with 30 days notice, so there is no lock in contract.
Nick Fritzkowski at Website Design Darwin provides WordPress support in Darwin and across the Northern Territory. He handles updates, backups, security scans, fixes and content changes by phone, email and video call, for sites he built and for sites built by other developers.
The $99 Business plan suits most Darwin business websites that rely on enquiries. It includes daily backups, weekly updates, weekly security scans, uptime monitoring and hack recovery, so a problem can be caught and fixed quickly before customers notice.
I can maintain a WordPress site for a Casuarina business that was built by someone else. I start with a health check and full backup, bring any overdue updates up to date safely and then move the site onto the plan that suits you.
If a Palmerston website on the Business or Elite plan gets hacked, the cleanup and recovery is included in the plan. On Basic and Essentials I restore from the most recent backup where possible and quote any further repair work before starting.
A Top End website that rarely changes still needs maintenance because WordPress, themes and plugins keep releasing security fixes. Even the $19 Basic plan covers monthly updates and backups, which closes most of the gaps hackers look for.
You can cancel a Darwin website maintenance plan with 30 days notice at any time. There are no lock in contracts or exit fees. You keep full access to your website and I can hand over the latest backup if you want one.
Send me your web address and I will do a quick check and recommend the right plan.
