Websites that stay fast and safe
Website maintenance and care plans for Kenyan businesses: updates, backups, security and support, so your website keeps working while you run the business.
01Why it matters
A website is like a car: it needs regular servicing.
WordPress, its plugins and its theme release updates all the time, many of them security fixes. Websites that miss them are the ones that get hacked, redirect visitors to spam or get flagged by Google, usually at the worst possible moment.
A care plan does the dull, important work every week: updates, backups stored away from your hosting, uptime monitoring and a check that your forms and payments still work. If something does break, a clean backup means hours of disruption, not weeks.
If your website collects personal details and a breach puts people at risk, Kenya’s Data Protection Act requires you to notify the Data Commissioner within 72 hours. Prevention is far cheaper. Read what website maintenance costs in Kenya for the full picture.

We clean it or restore a clean backup, update everything and close the hole that let the attacker in. Premium care includes emergency response.

Basic suits a small brochure site with few changes. Professional suits a site that brings in enquiries and needs regular updates. Premium suits online shops and busy sites.
