WEB SITE MONITORING & MAINTENANCE

Regular (we suggest at least monthly) maintenance and monitoring include:

• Link Checks: Testing to ensure your site navigation, images and links to other sites are all correct and functioning.
• Function Checks: Checking the workings on the site such as form submission, uploads, downloads, blogs, mailing list, shopping cart and any other active components to ensure that they work properly.
• Email: Receiving, forwarding and even responding to email on your behalf, ensuring all legitimate incoming mail is received &/or forwarded for prompt attention. Of course we will also help with spam filtering, setting up the server to remove mail sent to invalid site addresses and setting up your own email software.
• Traffic Reports: Statistical reports of website traffic by day/week/month, identifying the actual number of unique visits, with details such as the time and pages visited in order to help you determine the effectiveness of your site promotion efforts.
• SEO Effectiveness: Analysis of search engine spider visits, search phrases used to find your website, visited pages and search engine results for key search phrases.



• Updates: Images and information on the site such as art galleries, calendars, schedules, event reports, and site news should be updated regularly. New articles should be added to information sites too.
• Marketing Materials: Creating new marketing materials and business stationery that integrate your website and your entire business identity as needed.
• Linking: Seeking out sites that are related in interest, geography or industry and arranging for backward links where possible. We can also help with advice on paid marketing alternatives and getting your site listed on free and paid directories.
• Additions: Adding new pages and/or functions to your site.
• Redesign or Redevelopment: All websites occasionally need a complete redesign to meet better standards, create search-engine-friendly coding, improve navigation, make your site more user-friendly or to freshen the look and feel of the website.
