Website Maintenance Services In Toronto

Most small business sites sit between $75 and $250 a month depending on how much changes and how much traffic they carry. That covers updates, backups, security monitoring, uptime checks and a set amount of content edits. Larger sites and online stores run higher because there is more to break and more at stake when it does. We also do one-off work at an hourly rate if you would rather not commit to a plan.

Core, plugin and theme updates applied and tested rather than clicked blindly. Off-site backups taken on a schedule and checked that they restore. Security monitoring and malware scanning. Uptime monitoring so we find out before you do. Broken link and error checks. Speed monitoring. And a block of time each month for the small content changes every business needs — a new phone number, a price, a staff photo.

You can leave it alone, and plenty of sites run untouched for years. The risk is that nothing looks wrong until it suddenly is: an out-of-date plugin becomes the way somebody gets in, an expired certificate throws a browser warning at every visitor, or a PHP upgrade at the host takes the site down on a Saturday. Maintenance is not about the site looking different next month. It is about it still being there.

We clean it, find how they got in, and close it. That order matters — a site cleaned without finding the entry point gets reinfected, usually within days. We remove the injected code, check for backdoors left behind, restore from a known-good backup where necessary, and then deal with the vulnerability. If Google has flagged the site we handle the review request too. See security and clean-up.

Yes, and a good share of our maintenance work is exactly that. We start with an audit — what it is built on, what state the updates are in, whether backups exist and whether they work, and what is already broken. You get that assessment before committing to anything, including an honest answer if the site is better rebuilt than maintained.

WordPress and Joomla mainly, plus WooCommerce and other ecommerce builds on top of them. We also look after custom-built sites. If you are unsure what yours runs on, send us the address and we will tell you. See WordPress website design.

Same business day for anything that has taken a site down or is costing you orders. Routine requests — a text change, a new page — go into the normal queue and are usually done within a couple of days. Site-down situations are the ones that matter and they get treated accordingly.

Indirectly, and we will not pretend otherwise. Maintenance protects rankings rather than building them — a site that is fast, secure, error-free and always up will not lose ground for technical reasons. Actually climbing for competitive Toronto search terms is separate ongoing work. See SEO services.

Monthly plans, cancel whenever you like, no long contract. Your site, code, domain, hosting account and backups are yours throughout and stay in your name. If you leave we hand over everything, including the backups. Worth confirming that with anyone you are considering — not every provider does it.

Yes. We are in North York and work with businesses across Toronto, the GTA and Ontario, with clients elsewhere in Canada. Maintenance is entirely remote work, so where you are makes no practical difference.
