Website management

Website management for South African businesses

One studio that builds your .co.za website and then looks after it for good. Hosting, domain, email, security, monitoring, and the changes you need, handled on one flat monthly plan.

What website management actually means

Most South African businesses do not want to learn a content system, chase a hosting renewal, or hunt for a freelancer every time something breaks. Website management means you hand all of that to one studio. We build the site, put it on a fast server, keep it secure and online, and make the changes you ask for, month after month.

It is the difference between owning a car and owning a car with a mechanic on call who also fills the tank, renews the licence, and washes it every month.

What we handle every month

Hosting and uptime

Your site runs on monitored hosting in a Johannesburg data centre, with automatic SSL renewal and daily backups. If it goes down, we are alerted and we put it right.

Domain and email

Your .co.za domain and @yourdomain.co.za mailboxes are included and managed for you. No registrar logins, no renewal invoices.

Changes and updates

New prices, a fresh photo, an extra page, a news post. You send the request, we make the change within your plan's monthly hours.

Monitoring and a monthly report

Uptime, page speed, broken links, and backup confirmation, summed up in a one-page report each month so you know it is healthy.

How it differs from simple hosting

Commodity hosts give you a server and a login, then leave the rest to you. That is fine if you have someone in-house who builds and maintains the site. Most small businesses do not, so the site slowly drifts: plugins go stale, the SSL lapses, the content ages, and nobody notices until a customer does.

Who it is for

It fits any South African business that wants a proper website without becoming its webmaster: tradespeople, consultants, clinics, salons, studios, tourism operators, and small service firms. If you would rather spend your time on your business than on your website, this is built for you.

Plans and pricing

Three flat monthly plans, each including the domain, email, and Johannesburg hosting. Basic suits a one-to-three page site, Plus is the sweet spot for an established SMB, and Managed Business adds bookings, payments, and a customer portal. See the full breakdown and server specs on the plans page, or read about ongoing website maintenance and the domain, email, and hosting we include.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask

01 Is this the same as web hosting?
No. Hosting just keeps your files on a server. Website management means we design and build the site, host it, monitor it, renew the SSL, keep backups, and make the changes you ask for each month, all on one plan.
02 What if I already have a website?
We can take over an existing site, or rebuild it if that is the better answer. We look at it first and tell you honestly which makes more sense.
03 How many changes are included?
Each plan includes a set number of change hours a month: 1 hour on Basic, 3 on Plus, 8 on Managed Business. Small overflow we usually absorb, and we tell you before anything goes over.
04 Who do I deal with when I need something?
The studio that built your site. You send a request by email and reach the same people who made it, the ones who already know how it works.
