Why would you want us to maintain your site?

Time Saving: Frees you up to run your business instead of spending numerous hours learning how to maintain your site.

Accuracy: Accuracy and consistency is important to all of us. We know that your site and the information on it are important to you. We do our best to get it right the first time.

Quick Turnaround: Updates are usually done within 3-5 business days.

Keeping Content Fresh: Using information provided by your staff we add new data or edit existing data on your website. This content may include product information, job opportunities, company information, staffing changes, contact or address changes, press releases, etc.

Repairing Dead Links: Even if you haven't changed your site in months, it is very possible that there are links on your site that are broken. This most often occurs when other sites, that your site is linked to, change. As other websites update, delete or rename pages, the links on your site that point to those pages need to be updated as well. By having a web management service plan, you can ensure that dead links can be fixed as soon as they are discovered.

Website Management: Using state-of-the-art site management tools we can monitor your site and can make changes that may improve your site performance. We can also provide "user" information such as where your visitors are coming from, how many there are and what they look at while visiting your site.

Page Additions: The skills required to maintain a site are also the skills required to design and build a site. Using these skills we can add pages and features to your site so you don't have to have your site put through an entire re-design. Our experience maintaining your current site and the relationships developed during that process will help expedite and simplify the addition process. sin.se

Website Maintenance Policy: We maintain a current local backup copy of your website. "Management" is defined as keeping the website current. It is not intended to be a redesign or revamp. Updates are completed 3-5 business days after they are received, except weekends and holidays. Updates received after 5:00pm CT may not be completed until the next business day unless prior arrangements have been made. Time is based on actual total time involved in completing the updates at the time of billing (usually on or about the 15th of the month).

There is a one hour minimum charge for updates made during any given monthly billing cycle. If no updates or changes have been requested, there is no fee for management. Although we make every effort to make accurate changes, it is the client's responsibility to review updates and notify us of any necessary changes that need to be made. We do not charge for changes that are our fault. However, if a change needs to be made due to client error, the regular hourly update fees will be charged. We reserve the right to distinguish between "updates" and "new design". New design work is charged at our design rate.

Updates should be provided electronically (by email). Attachments should be in .txt or .doc (Word) format. Pictures need to be .jpg or .gif. Updates may also be sent by postal mail or by fax. These require retyping data or scanning photos and will cost more to complete the changes. Your website may be using third-party components (website trackers, weather info-feeds, etc.). We have no control over what third party sites do and take no responsibility for loss of information due to actions of these sites. Any changes to your website stemming from regulations of these third party components will be billed at the normal hourly rate. (Example, A retail site might be connected to Authorize.net. If Authorize.net requires changes in the code, this will be billed as normal Management fees).
