Care & growth · Sarasota, FL

The part most freelancers disappear after.

Hosting, updates, backups, uptime and speed monitoring — plus a monthly block of hours for the changes you'll inevitably want. For Sarasota businesses whose site needs to still be working next year.

  • From $75/month
  • No lock-in contract
  • Works on sites I didn't build

What's included

Quiet months are the product.

A good care plan is mostly invisible. You notice it the month something would have broken and didn't.

Kept safe

Security patches and dependency updates applied as they land, not when something is already wrong. Off-site backups, tested by actually restoring them.

  • Security and dependency updates
  • Backups that are verified, not assumed
  • SSL and domain renewals watched

Kept up

Uptime monitoring that tells me before it tells you, and speed checks so the site doesn't quietly get slower with every image somebody uploads.

  • Uptime checks around the clock
  • Performance monitoring
  • Priority response when something breaks

Kept current

A monthly block of hours for real changes — new prices, new staff, a new service, seasonal copy — so the site keeps matching the business instead of drifting out of date.

  • Monthly content and design changes
  • Unused hours roll over one month
  • Bigger work quoted separately, fixed

Why it matters

Sites don't fail dramatically. They rot.

  1. 01

    The contact form stops sending

    A form that silently stopped delivering is the most expensive bug a small business can have, because nothing looks wrong. Monitoring catches it; nobody watching means months of lost enquiries.

  2. 02

    The certificate expires

    Browsers put a full-page security warning in front of your site over a renewal nobody was tracking. It takes minutes to fix and days to notice.

  3. 03

    The prices go stale

    The site still says what you charged two years ago, so every enquiry starts with a correction. Change hours exist so that never becomes a project.

  4. 04

    Nobody remembers how it works

    The developer moved on and the login is in someone's old inbox. Part of a plan is that the domain, host and code stay documented and yours.

Questions

The ones people actually ask.

Do you take on sites you didn't build?

Yes, after a look at what's there. Some sites need a bit of work before they're sensible to maintain, and I'll tell you that up front rather than bill you monthly to babysit a mess.

Am I locked in?

No. It's month to month, and the site, domain and code are yours the whole time. A care plan you can leave is the only kind worth selling.

What if I don't need one?

Then don't buy one. A small static site with no plugins can sit happily for a year untouched — that's part of why I build them that way.

Need something built first? Start with web design or app development.
