Monthly Website Maintenance / Upkeep Plans

Why consider a maintenance plan when there’s an as-needed option available?

Too often nonprofit websites fall short of their potential—even after a successful re-branding and makeover. The key reason is a lack of time and/or motivation to maintaining appearance and, most importantly, adding timely content and updates. Frequently, the management of the website simply falls through the cracks. But, it doesn’t have to be like that.

When a budgeted amount of time per week / per month is set aside for the development and upkeep of the website, performed by a website pro who has your back, then the client is more inclined to re-prioritize the website. (Because money has already been allocated, and they’re getting help.) From this,  a more dynamic and utilized web presence is sure to follow quickly. (And, naturally, the organization’s staff is more freed-up for other important tasks.)
