Your site won't break, get hacked, or go down without you knowing. Hands-free maintenance, off-site backups, and proactive security from a personal engineer.
Fully managed care with zero headaches or surprises. We actively protect and maintain your site 24/7 so you can focus on your business.
Every update is tested behind the scenes before it goes anywhere near your live site, so a routine update never turns into a broken homepage.
A protective layer sits in front of your site around the clock, blocking malicious traffic, bad logins, and automated attacks before they ever reach you. Basic firewall protection is included on every plan, with Professional adding network-level threat intelligence (AntiBot Global Firewall) and Mint Condition upgrading to full firewall protection.
Your site is backed up every day and kept somewhere completely separate from your server, so if anything ever goes wrong, we can always get you back up and running.
We scan your site daily for malware, suspicious files, and known vulnerabilities, catching problems early before they can affect your visitors or your reputation.
Continuous monitoring every 5 minutes. If your site drops, we get alerted immediately to bring it back online.
If something goes wrong during working hours, we're on it quickly. Malware clean-up is included every month, so a bad month doesn't cost you extra.
A plain-English summary every month showing what was updated, what we checked, and how your site is performing, so you always know it's being looked after.
We clean up your database and streamline your site's files so pages load quickly and feel smooth for every visitor.
We keep an eye on your site's search health, catching broken links and technical issues early so they don't quietly hurt your rankings.
Proper Google Analytics setup and monthly insights in plain English, so you know exactly how visitors are finding and using your site.
Your SSL certificate is monitored and renewed automatically, and we make sure your site always loads securely over HTTPS with no nasty "not secure" warnings.
A private copy of your site where changes can be tried out safely first, so nothing risky ever touches your live site without being checked.

Layout jump virtually eliminated

Configured server-side caching (dynamic, file-based & object caching) so pages serve instantly instead of rebuilding on every visit.
The homepage's autoplay video had no fallback image, so the page visibly "jumped" while it loaded. Added a proper poster frame — jump eliminated.
Re-encoded the homepage video from 3.5MB to 1.24MB (desktop) with a dedicated 0.15MB mobile version — same visual quality, a fraction of the data.
Is your site leaving speed — and visitors — on the table? This is the kind of fix that's easy to miss and expensive to ignore. We find it and fix it.
