Website Maintenance Services & Packages That Keep Your Site Fast, Secure, and Actually Online
Website maintenance is the ongoing care a site needs after launch — someone watching for security holes, applying updates, taking backups, and catching outages before your customers do. CodeHazel's packages start at $29/month and cover WordPress, Shopify, and custom-built sites, with a real person checking in, not a bot pinging you at 3am.
Trusted by 150+ clients worldwide
What's Included in Our Website Maintenance Services?
A website maintenance package is an ongoing service that keeps your site secure, updated, and running smoothly after launch. At CodeHazel, every plan includes core updates, security monitoring, backups, and performance checks — so your site stays fast, safe, and functional year-round.
Maintenance doesn't cover full redesigns or new feature builds — for that, see our Website Design & Development Services.
- Security Updates & Malware Scanning — Patch vulnerabilities before they're exploited, not after.
- Uptime Monitoring — 24/7 checks with instant alerts the moment your site goes down.
- Daily & Weekly Backups — Offsite, restorable copies, so a bad update never means starting over.
- Core, Plugin & Theme Updates — Applied and tested, not just auto-run and hoped for.
- Performance & Speed Optimization — Image compression, caching, and database cleanup on a schedule.
- Broken Link & 404 Monitoring — Caught and fixed before they cost you rankings or visitors.
- Content & Minor Edits — Text swaps, image updates, and small page changes included monthly.
- SSL & Domain Health Checks — Certificates renewed and DNS issues caught before they lock anyone out.
- Monthly Reporting — A plain-language summary of what was updated, fixed, and monitored.
- Emergency Support — Site down or hacked? You get priority response, not a ticket queue.

WordPress Website Maintenance Packages
WordPress powers over 40% of the web, which also makes it the most targeted CMS out there — the vast majority of WordPress hacks trace back to an outdated plugin or theme, not the core software itself. Our WordPress plans focus on exactly that gap.
- Core, theme & plugin updates
- Malware scanning & vulnerability patching
- Database cleanup & optimization
- Staging-site testing before anything goes live
- Backup verification (we test that restores actually work)
Ecommerce Website Maintenance Packages
Every hour your store is slow or down is revenue walking out the door. Ecommerce maintenance goes further than a standard plan — it means watching the checkout path itself, not just the site around it.
- Plugin & payment gateway testing
- Cart & checkout monitoring
- Inventory sync error checks
- PCI-compliance-related security scans
- Peak-traffic performance checks (sales, holidays, launches)
Shopify Website Maintenance
Shopify handles hosting and core security for you — but themes, apps, and custom code are still your responsibility, and they're where most Shopify issues actually start.
- Theme & app update management
- Broken app/integration checks
- Checkout & page speed monitoring
- Liquid code review after app updates
- Inventory & product data sync checks
Webflow Website Maintenance
Webflow sites rarely get "hacked" in the traditional sense, but CMS collections, integrations, and custom code still drift out of date and break quietly if nobody's watching.
- CMS collection & content audits
- Third-party embed & integration checks
- Page speed & asset optimization
- Broken link & form monitoring
- Backup exports on a set schedule
Laravel Website Maintenance
Laravel apps carry real backend logic — dependency updates, server config, and database health matter as much as anything visible on the front end.
- Composer dependency & framework updates
- Server, PHP version & environment checks
- Database backup & query performance review
- Security patch monitoring (Laravel & underlying packages)
- Error log review & bug triage
Custom Website Maintenance
Hand-coded or built on a framework we haven't listed — no CMS doesn't mean no maintenance. We scope a plan around whatever stack it's actually built on.
- Dependency & library updates
- Server & hosting health checks
- Manual code-level security review
- Uptime & performance monitoring
- Documentation handover if you ever bring it in-house
Website Maintenance for Small Businesses
You didn't start your business to become a part-time IT manager. You need your site to just work — without eating into time you should spend on customers.
"My site broke and I don't know why."
You shouldn't need to know why. We monitor 24/7 and fix issues before they cost you visitors or sales.
"I don't have time to update it myself."
We handle content, plugin, and technical updates — your site stays current without taking your afternoon.
"I'm worried about getting hacked."
Small business sites are targeted more, not less. We run regular scans, backups, and patch vulnerabilities before they're exploited.
"I can't afford an in-house developer."
You don't need one. Plans start at $49/mo — full protection at a fraction of a hire's cost, no long-term contract.
"My website feels slow and outdated."
We optimize performance, improve load times, and keep your site feeling modern without a full rebuild.
No lock-in contracts. Cancel anytime.

Most agencies treat maintenance as a line item they'd rather not deal with. It's most of what we do — which is why it doesn't get the leftover attention.
Dedicated Support
A named point of contact who knows your site's history — not a rotating helpdesk that makes you re-explain the problem every time you call. You get someone who already knows what CMS you're on, what broke last time, and what your site looked like before the last three "quick fixes" someone else made.
Transparent Monthly Reporting
A clear breakdown of what was updated, fixed, and monitored — no vague line items.
24-Hour Response SLA
Every ticket gets a response within 24 hours, guaranteed.
No Lock-In Contracts
Month-to-month, cancel anytime, no penalty for leaving.
Proactive, Not Reactive
Issues caught and fixed before visitors notice, not after a customer complains.
Multi-Platform Expertise
WordPress, Shopify, Magento, React, Laravel and more — handled by one team instead of bouncing between specialists.
Trusted by 250+ businesses since 2015.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still deciding on a plan? Here's what most site owners ask before signing up.
How much does website maintenance cost?
Most small business plans run $29–$150/month depending on site complexity and how much active management you need. Ecommerce and high-traffic sites typically need the higher tier.
What affects the price:
- Site type: Brochure sites cost less than stores
- Update frequency: More content changes = more included hours
- Monitoring level: 24/7 monitoring costs more than business-hours checks
What's the difference between website maintenance and web hosting?
Hosting is the server your site lives on. Maintenance is the ongoing work of keeping what’s on that server updated, secure, and backed up. You can have great hosting and still get hacked from an outdated plugin — the two aren’t a substitute for each other.
Do you offer website maintenance for small businesses without an IT team?
Yes — that’s most of who we work with. You don’t need any technical background; we handle updates, monitoring, and fixes, and send a monthly report in plain language.
What happens if my site gets hacked?
You get priority emergency support — we isolate the issue, restore from a clean backup, and patch the vulnerability that caused it. Ecommerce/Pro plans include 24/7 monitoring specifically to catch this before it happens.
Do you provide ecommerce website maintenance packages?
Yes — our Ecommerce/Pro plan adds payment gateway checks, cart and checkout monitoring, and inventory sync error checks on top of everything in Growth.
Can you maintain a site you didn't build?
Yes. Most new clients come to us with a site built by someone else. We start with a full audit before enrolling any site in a plan, so we know exactly what we’re maintaining.
What's included in a WordPress website maintenance package?
Core, theme, and plugin updates, malware scanning, database cleanup, and backup management — tested before anything goes live on your production site.
How often do you back up my site?
Daily automated backups on all plans, stored offsite — not just on the same server as your site, which defeats the point.
Is there a contract?
No. Plans are month-to-month, and you can cancel anytime. We’d rather earn the renewal than lock you into one.
What if I need something outside my plan's included hours?
Extra work is billed at a clear hourly rate, quoted before we start — no surprise invoices.
