Can you support a website you did not build?
Often, yes. The website may need an initial review, especially when it contains old plugins, custom code or no staging environment.
MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT
Flexible website maintenance and technical support based on what the site actually needs
Support requirements vary. One business may need routine updates and content changes. Another may need investigation for plugin conflicts, integrations or ongoing improvements.
Instead of forcing every client into one of several fixed tiers, I provide website and technical support hourly, as a defined task, or through a recurring block of reserved time agreed around the actual workload.

Service detail
Support can cover
The exact support scope depends on the site, code quality, hosting and business risk. An initial review may be needed before ongoing responsibility is accepted.
- WordPress core, theme and plugin update review
- content and layout changes
- broken forms, links or frontend behavior
- plugin and theme conflicts
- WooCommerce issues
- performance investigation
- analytics or Search Console implementation issues
- custom plugin maintenance
- API and webhook failures
- automation workflow changes
- deployment and release assistance
- backup and uptime checks where the hosting environment supports them
- accessibility fixes
- technical SEO implementation
- staging and production coordination
- documentation of changes
Service detail
Hourly support
Hourly support is suitable when tasks are occasional, the workload changes month to month, a bug must be investigated before it can be estimated, the website contains undocumented custom code, or the business wants flexibility rather than unused plan allowances.
Technical development and support starts from $18/hour. Work is tracked and summarized at a level appropriate to the engagement.
Service detail
Scoped tasks
A clearly defined improvement can be quoted as a fixed scope. The estimate is confirmed after the current system and acceptance criteria are understood.
- repair one broken form workflow
- update a set of page sections
- resolve a reproducible plugin conflict
- add a small WooCommerce rule
- connect one API event
- improve one performance bottleneck
- migrate a defined set of content
Service detail
Recurring reserved support
Businesses and agencies that need predictable access can reserve a recurring block of hours. The block, response expectations and type of work are agreed based on the real website and expected workload.
There are no artificial Essential, Business or Priority tiers. The support arrangement follows the system and the client’s priorities.
- a simple business site may need only a small block
- an active WooCommerce store may need more regular attention
- a plugin or integration may need release and monitoring support
- an agency may reserve implementation capacity across several client tasks
Service detail
Before support begins
For an existing site, I may review inherited risk. It is not a promise that every pre-existing issue can be discovered in one review.
- WordPress and PHP versions
- theme and plugin status
- hosting and backups
- custom code locations
- staging availability
- known errors
- form and checkout paths
- analytics and search setup
- integrations and credentials
- deployment process
- current security concerns

How support requests are handled

Confirm the work model
Proceed hourly, approve a fixed estimate or use available reserved hours.
- 04
Implement and summarize
Changes are made through the safest available environment, tested and summarized with any follow-up recommendation.
Pricing
Pricing
Third-party licenses, hosting and provider charges remain with the client unless explicitly included in an approved scope. This is stated briefly during estimation rather than through a long generic policy block.
- Technical development and support: from $18/hour.
- Defined improvement: scoped estimate after review.
- Recurring support: reserved hours agreed around the expected workload.

Website Development
A business website should help a visitor understand what you do, decide whether you are relevant and take the next step without searching through an unclear menu.

Custom WordPress Plugin Development
Existing plugins are often the right starting point, but a focused custom plugin can be safer when a business rule is too specific or critical functionality has drifted into the theme.
View detailsCommon questions
Questions clients usually ask
Do unused recurring hours roll over?
That depends on the agreed arrangement. The terms should match how capacity is reserved and should be confirmed in the support scope rather than imposed as a universal public rule.
Do you provide emergency support?
Urgent work depends on availability, access and the system involved. Do not promise 24/7 or after-hours coverage unless it is explicitly contracted.
Can support include new features?
Yes. Small improvements may be handled hourly or through reserved time. Larger features should be separated into a scoped project.
Do you guarantee security?
No one can guarantee that a website will never be compromised. Support can include update review, safer configuration, issue investigation and coordination with hosting/security providers where relevant.
