# Takeover + maintenance

From $60/month, after a $750 audit

Your WordPress site already exists, but no one looks after it anymore. I take it over, then host it and keep it up to date every month, for small businesses and nonprofits in Montreal and across Québec.

## What's included

- **I start with an audit** I look at the state of the site before I commit to maintaining it.
- **I put the access back in your name** The domain, the host and the site's admin.
- **I host it** On my server, or with your own host if you prefer.
- **I keep it updated** WordPress, the theme and the plugins, once a month.
- **I back it up** Every day. If something breaks, I get the site working again.
- **I report back** Every month, a list of what I did.

## What it costs

### Simple

For a site that rarely changes.

$60/month · Hosting included · Changes at $75 an hour

### Standard

For a site that gets updated every month.

$100/month · Hosting included · 1 h of changes a month

### Complet

For a site with features of its own.

$180/month · Hosting included · 2 h of changes a month

For nonprofits: about 15% less

## How it works

- **A call** (45 min) We take 45 minutes to talk about your website.
- **The audit** (Two weeks) I look at speed, security, updates and access. I don't touch anything.
- **My proposal** (With the report) The list of what needs fixing, with the price. The audit is taken off it.
- **The takeover** (Depends on the site) I recover the access, make a full backup and fix what's urgent.
- **Maintenance** (Then every month) Your website is up to date and I look after it every month.

## It's for you if

- The person who built your website no longer answers.
- Your WordPress hasn't been updated in a long time.
- Your maintenance contract costs too much for what it covers.

## Not for you if

- You want a new website.
- Your site is on Wix or Squarespace. It then has to be rebuilt elsewhere.
- You need someone available every day.

## Your questions

### Why an audit first?

The audit tells me what state your website is in before I commit to maintaining it. Its price is taken off my quote if you hire me for the follow-up work.

### We've lost all our logins. Is that a problem?

Usually not. The domain name and the hosting are in someone's name. We start from there to put everything back in your organization's name.

### Do we have to change hosts?

No. I host your website on my server, or I look after your own host's if you'd rather keep it.

### Does everything need to be rebuilt?

Not necessarily. A slow or outdated site can often be fixed without starting over. The audit is there to find out before you spend anything.

### Can we stop whenever we want?

Yes. Maintenance has no minimum term, with one month's notice, and I hand everything over.
