Cost Analysis

The Hidden Cost of Website Neglect

It's easy to skip maintenance until something breaks. But emergency work always costs more than prevention, and the bill shows up at the worst possible moment.

One disaster costs more than years of maintenance

Prevention is hourly work billed against a retainer. Recovery runs into the thousands, and sometimes into the tens of thousands.

A Monthly Summary of the Work

Every month you get a summary of the work: what we updated, what we fixed, how long each job took, and what's left on your retainer.

Work CompletedHours UsedRetainer BalanceUpdates Applied
How Pricing Works

A Retainer, Not a Subscription

You pay for the work we actually do. Quiet months cost you less, and a busy month doesn't mean upgrading to a bigger plan.

Step 1

Fund a retainer

You put down a deposit up front. We'll suggest a size based on your site and how much you expect to change it.

Step 2

We bill work against it

Updates, fixes, content changes, speed work, or anything else we do on your project comes out of the balance at $150 an hour. There's no monthly fee.

Step 3

You get a monthly report

Every month we send a report on what we did, how long it took, and what's left on the retainer.

A retainer is a deposit you pay up front. We bill against it at $150 an hour whenever we touch your project, for any reason, and send you a monthly report on what we did. Retainer clients go first, with emergency support from 8am to 11pm Eastern, 7 days a week. Without a retainer, we can still work on your project. We send an invoice at $150 an hour and respond within one business day, but there's no priority and no emergency support.

Website Maintenance FAQs

Maintenance runs on a retainer instead of a monthly plan. A retainer is a deposit you pay up front. We bill against it at $150 an hour whenever we touch your project, for any reason, and send you a monthly report on what we did. Updates, fixes, content changes and speed work all come out of it, and each month's report shows what's left. Retainer clients go first, with emergency support from 8am to 11pm Eastern, 7 days a week. We'll suggest a deposit size based on your site and how much you expect to change it.

Yes, as long as it isn't on WordPress. We take over maintenance for sites built elsewhere all the time: core and dependency updates ship within 48 hours, alongside daily malware scans and security hardening.
