What counts as routine support?
Clear boundaries on what is covered under routine monthly care versus custom project work.
“Routine support covers changes within the existing design and functionality: updating services, staff, photographs, contact details, opening hours and similar business information.”
New pages, redesigns, third-party integrations, e-commerce features and custom functionality are assessed separately before work begins.

Can ZappSites maintain a website built elsewhere?
How we evaluate websites built elsewhere before offering a managed maintenance agreement.
“Possibly. We first review the platform, access, theme, plugins, licences and current condition. Sites with unsupported or insecure components may require remediation or rebuilding before a maintenance commitment can be offered.”
Existing Website
You send us the live URL and brief description of your current setup.
Platform & Access Review
We review the underlying CMS, hosting server, and administrative access.
Security / Plugin / Licence Check
We inspect for outdated plugins, vulnerable scripts, and third-party licence status.
Maintenance Suitable?
We evaluate if the codebase meets our baseline security and performance criteria.
Maintenance Plan or Remediation
We offer an ongoing care plan or recommend a clean rebuild to avoid ongoing instability.
You focus on the business. We handle the website.
“Your website should not become another task on your weekly to-do list. ZappSites handles the routine technical and content maintenance so you can focus on customers.”
