Website Maintenance and SEO for Clients
For clients whose site I built: the website always online, up to date and looked after after launch — with SEO done from the start.
Maintenance and ongoing SEO are for clients only — websites I built. I don't offer this service separately for websites built by other people.
A website's SEO starts before the website exists: structure, titles, descriptions, speed and structured data are all done during the build. Every site I deliver goes live with that in place — it isn't an extra.
After launch, the website needs care to stay fast, secure and up to date. That's where maintenance comes in — and, for sites with a blog, SEO for every new post.
Who it's for
- Clients whose website I built and who want someone looking after it after launch.
- Clients with a blog who want every new post optimized for Google and for AI.
What's included
- During the build (included in every website): technical and content SEO, done before launch.
- Maintenance: fixes, small updates, security updates and speed monitoring.
- Blog — option 1: I optimize your new posts periodically, for an agreed fee.
- Blog — option 2: an AI system that optimizes every post on its own, installed for a one-time extra fee (see AI Content Automation).
- Maintenance terms are agreed in the quote.
A new post doesn't get SEO just by being published on the blog: either someone optimizes each one, or a system does it automatically.
How it works
- 01
Briefing
I get to know your business, your goals and your audience before designing a single screen. No briefing, no website — it's the foundation of everything.
- 02
Design
I create the visual identity and layout from scratch (or from a catalog template), focused on clarity, hierarchy and conversion.
- 03
Development
I turn the design into real code: fast, responsive and optimized, tested on different screens before it goes live.
- 04
Launch
I publish it, check everything in production and show you how to use it. After that, I'm still around for tweaks and support.
The deadline is fixed in the briefing, before work starts. Payment is usually 50% upfront and 50% on delivery, and the domain and the code are yours.
Shall we talk about your project?
Tell me what you need and I'll send you a quote with a fixed deadline.
