Many businesses budget for the website build but forget maintenance entirely โ until something breaks. Here's what maintenance actually costs and what you get for it.
Typical Monthly Costs
- Basic plan: โน2,000/month โ security updates, monthly backup, uptime monitoring
- Growth plan: โน5,000/month โ weekly backups, content edits, performance optimization
- E-commerce plan: โน15,000/month โ daily backups, unlimited product updates, payment monitoring
What Happens Without a Maintenance Plan
Outdated plugins become security vulnerabilities, expired SSL certificates break trust indicators, and small content errors sit unfixed for months โ all quietly hurting conversions and rankings.
Is Maintenance Worth It?
For most active business websites, yes โ the cost of a single security incident or extended downtime period usually exceeds a year of basic maintenance. See our full maintenance plans for details.
Can You Skip It?
If your website is a simple, rarely-updated brochure site, you can stretch maintenance intervals โ but we still recommend at minimum an annual security check and backup.
