What our maintenance packages include

Our plans provide essential protection and performance tuning.

Performance & Availability Optimisation

  • Speed & Performance Checks

    We regularly monitor loading times, Core Web Vitals, and overall performance, identifying potential bottlenecks before they impact rankings or user experience.

    Regular, automated optimisation of your website’s database to remove overhead, improve query efficiency, and contribute to faster site performance.

HAVING A PLAN

Our process for web maintenance

Our systematic approach ensures consistent, proactive care for your website, month after month.

01

Onboarding & Site Setup

We securely gather necessary credentials (hosting, WP-admin), implement monitoring tools, perform an initial detailed health check (identifying immediate issues), configure and test off-site backups, and confirm your plan specifics.

02

Scheduled Proactive Tasks

Based on your plan’s frequency (e.g., weekly, monthly), our team methodically performs the core maintenance cycle: running all software updates in a staging environment where possible, executing security scans, checking performance metrics, optimising the database, and verifying backup completion.

03

Continuous Monitoring & Alerts

Our automated systems monitor uptime and security signals 24/7. Critical alerts (e.g., site down, suspected malware) trigger immediate notifications to our team for prompt investigation and response based on your plan level.

04

Reporting & Communication

At the start of each month, you receive your detailed health report. If your plan includes support hours, requests are managed efficiently through our dedicated support system with clear communication and tracking.

Customer Reviews

Trust built on real results

“Outfox SEO built us a dieting and fitness website that successfully competes against US and UK businesses with millions of pounds worth of funding and extensive full time marketing teams. We never dreamed we would be able to compete against these types of businesses in Google’s search results.”
Stacey,
Hit My Macros
“We worked with Outfox to get a new professional site which we are very pleased with. Outfox were very easy to deal with and made the whole process straightforward. This is important because as a community owned business we don’t have lots of technical knowledge. Outfox gave us several ideas for the site and we were able to review and make changes before it was finished. We have noticed several visitors to the cafe have mentioned they found us on google, which didn’t happen before. We are happy to recommend Outfox SEO.”
Gail Anderson
Café Coln
”We enlisted OutFox SEO to enhance our Google rankings, and the results have been remarkable. Now, we proudly occupy top positions on Google for our selected keyword phrases, for example “How to become an energy supplier. ” Their service has been nothing short of fantastic, delivered by a team of highly knowledgeable individuals.”

“OutFox SEO proved to be an exceptional choice of web partner. They handled the branding, design, and development of my jewellery website with great skill. Moreover, they devised an effective SEO strategy tailored to my budget, enabling me to compete with other players in the market. Currently, we are on the verge of deploying their expertise for our upcoming Google Ads campaign.”

Regular maintenance is crucial for security (patching vulnerabilities), performance (speed optimisation, updates), reliability (uptime, backups), compatibility (browser/device updates), and protecting your investment. Neglecting it leads to risks like hacking, slow speeds, poor user experience, and potential data loss.
