Do
you need help maintaining your website?
Regular website maintenance and updating is very important.
When visitors see evidence that the content on your site is
out of date, it sends a message to them that there's "no
one home.
Most Important Reasons To Update Your Website Regularly
- Things change. Your products and services may be
changing every so often and your site needs to reflect that.
Keep it up-to-date.
- Increase your search engine rankings. Your website's
position with search engines will start dropping if there
is nothing new being added, particularly if your competitors
are updating regularly.
- Keep your company looking professional. Not updating
content that is obviously out of date makes your company
look shabby.
- Encourage visitors to return. People often don't
make purchases or contact a company on their first visit
to its website. When they do return, if the content looks
fresh, they are more likely to do business with you.
- Be modern. It's important to regularly check the
language and design of your site to make sure it is still
relevant to your customers. Language and images change.
Your website should too.
- Make sure everything is working. Websites are just
like everything else - sometimes they malfunction. It's
important to check that the site is in good working order.
Why Can't I Maintain My Own Website?
If you know how to do it and have the time to do a good job,
go for it! It will save you money and since it's your site,
you are the best person to handle the job.
The reality is that most people don't have the skills or
the time to do a decent job. If your website skills are not
good, you will probably make a mess of the site and end up
paying someone to fix it. If you are busy with other things,
updating your site may be low priority and not get done as
often as needed.
What If My Website Only Needs An Occasional Update? Isn't that
expensive?
Good question. Many sites don't need to be updated every
day or even every week. Our rate is $60 per hour, and the
good news is that we charge by the minute. If we do five minutes
work, you pay $5.00. For more details, click
