Our Website Maintenance Services in Melbourne
Performance Optimisation
We tune caching, images, databases and CDN for faster loads and optimal performance. Continuous performance monitoring flags slowdowns early, so fixes land before users or campaigns feel the drop.
24/7 Uptime Monitoring
Always-on checks watch availability, errors and spikes with proactive monitoring and security monitoring. Alerts route straight to our developers, so incidents are contained quickly and visibility stays clear for your team.
Emergency Support
When minutes matter, we fix and confirm service restoration fast. Priority workflows protect conversions and keep ecommerce sites selling while we stabilise the platform and communicate clear next steps.
Malware Protection
Layered website security blocks security threats before they spread. Routine malware scans, tuned firewalls and access reviews reduce risk, while remediation playbooks remove infections and harden your setup.
Core and Plugin Updates
Planned cycles cover WordPress core, plugins and theme software updates. We test, deploy regular updates and patch vulnerabilities on staging first, safeguarding stability without disrupting campaigns.
Regular Backups
Automated daily back ups capture code and content, with restore tests scheduled. Copies are stored off-site and securely, so rollbacks are reliable and recovery is measured in minutes.
Cross-Device Testing
We verify key journeys across browsers and mobiles on the technical side and UX. Forms, carts and tracking work consistently, so customers can move from ad to action without friction.
Post-Update QA
After every release, structured checks validate layouts, forms and analytics events. These security measures keep the site stable, well-maintained and ready for the next launch.
Monthly Maintenance Report
Simple dashboards show work completed, incidents, speed trends and priorities for ongoing maintenance. You see what improved, what is next, and how the plan supports marketing outcomes.
