Website Maintenance & Hosting in Western NC

Your website should work for you, not stress you out. We handle updates, backups, security, and hosting so you can focus on running your business.

The Website Problem Nobody Talks About

A restaurant owner in Bryson City called me in a panic last year. Her website was down. Completely blank. She had no idea why.

Turns out, she hadn't updated WordPress in over two years. A plugin had a security vulnerability. Someone exploited it. Her site got hacked and her hosting company shut it down.

It took a week to fix. A week where customers couldn't find her menu, her hours, or her phone number online. A week of lost reservations.

The frustrating part? It was completely preventable. A few minutes of updates each month would have avoided the whole thing.

Most small business owners don't think about their website until something breaks. By then, it's an emergency. We take care of the boring stuff in the background so you never have to deal with that panic call.

What Happens When You Ignore Your Website

Your website isn't a "set it and forget it" thing. It's more like a car. It needs regular maintenance or it starts to break down.

Here's what can go wrong:

  • Security vulnerabilities. Outdated plugins and software are the #1 way sites get hacked. Once you're hacked, Google may blacklist you and your SEO rankings tank.
  • Slow loading speeds. Over time, sites get bloated. Images pile up. Database tables grow. Your site slows down and visitors leave.
  • Broken features. That contact form you haven't tested in months? It might have stopped working. You'd never know until a customer complains.
  • Hosting issues. Cheap shared hosting works until it doesn't. One bad neighbor on your server and your site crawls.
  • No backups. If something goes wrong and you don't have backups, you could lose everything.

None of this is fun to think about. That's why most people don't. And that's exactly why we offer this service.

This Isn't Just for Sites We Built

We maintain websites we didn't build all the time. If you have an existing site on WordPress, Squarespace, or another platform, we can take over maintenance.

If your site needs a refresh, we also offer web design services. But if your current site works fine and just needs someone to keep it running, we can help with that too.

Who This Is For

This service is perfect for small businesses in Western North Carolina who:

  • Have a website but don't have time to maintain it
  • Aren't sure if their site is secure or backed up
  • Have been burned by cheap hosting that's slow or unreliable
  • Want one less thing to worry about
  • Need someone to call when something breaks

We work with restaurants, retail shops, professional services, contractors, and all kinds of local businesses. If you have a website, we can maintain it.

Works Great With Our Other Services

Many of our maintenance clients also use our SEO services or Google Business Profile management. When one team handles your website, hosting, and marketing, everything works together smoothly.

But you don't have to bundle anything. If you just need someone to keep your site running, that works too.

Common Questions

What platforms do you support?
We work with WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, and most common website platforms. If you're not sure, just ask.
Do I have to use your hosting?
No. We can maintain your site on your existing hosting if you prefer. But we recommend our managed hosting because it gives us more control to keep things running smoothly and fast.
What if I need a bigger change, not just maintenance?
Minor content updates are included. For larger projects like adding new pages or redesigning sections, we'll quote that separately. Many maintenance clients use us for occasional larger projects too.
How quickly do you respond to issues?
For emergencies like your site going down, we respond the same day. For regular requests, we typically get back to you within 24 hours on business days.
Is there a contract?
No long-term contracts. We bill monthly and you can cancel anytime. If you're on our hosting and cancel, we'll help you migrate to another provider.
What areas do you serve?
We're based in Waynesville and serve businesses throughout Western North Carolina. Website maintenance can be done remotely, so we also work with clients outside the area. Check out our service areas for more.
