Website Maintenance in Swansea

Swansea's economy is built on service businesses, 88.9% of the city's 108,000 jobs are in service sectors, from tourism and hospitality to professional services and retail. These businesses depend on their websites to attract customers, take bookings, and build credibility. But without regular maintenance, websites deteriorate silently until something breaks at the worst possible moment.

A security breach, a slow-loading homepage during peak tourism season, or a booking form that stops working on a Bank Holiday weekend, these aren't hypothetical scenarios. They happen to Swansea businesses every month, costing thousands in lost revenue and damaged reputation.

Our website maintenance service for Swansea businesses costs £50/month and prevents these costly problems. Daily backups, 24/7 security monitoring, performance optimisation, and same-day emergency support, everything your Swansea website needs to stay fast, secure, and generating business.

Tourism seasonality creates risk. Swansea's hotel occupancy peaks at 85% in summer, and visitor numbers surge to 4.62 million annually. If your website goes down or slows during peak season, you lose bookings you can't recover. Regular maintenance ensures your site handles traffic spikes without breaking.

Security threats don't take holidays. Swansea businesses processing online payments, collecting customer data, or storing sensitive information are targets for automated hacking attacks. Without regular security updates and monitoring, vulnerabilities accumulate until exploitation is inevitable.

Google penalises neglected websites. Page speed, mobile compatibility, and security all factor into Google rankings. A website that loaded in 2 seconds when launched might take 5+ seconds a year later as updates, content, and technical debt accumulate. This gradual slowdown costs Swansea businesses organic search visibility.

Mobile compatibility breaks over time. New phone models, browser updates, and operating system changes can break elements of your website without warning. Swansea's residents and tourists overwhelmingly search on mobile, if your site doesn't work perfectly on their device, they leave and find a competitor.

Daily automated backups: Every element of your Swansea business website is backed up daily to secure off-site storage. If disaster strikes, hacking, accidental deletion, or server failure, we restore your site within hours.

24/7 security monitoring: Real-time scanning detects malware, suspicious activity, and vulnerability exploits. Threats are neutralised immediately, usually before they can cause any damage to your website or customer data.

Performance optimisation: Monthly speed audits and improvements keep your site loading fast. We compress images, clean code, optimise databases, and implement caching, ensuring your Swansea customers get a fast experience every time.

Software and security updates: WordPress core, theme, and plugin updates applied safely with full backup and testing. Critical security patches within 24 hours of release.

Content updates: Need to update your menu, change opening hours for summer season, add a new team member photo, or refresh your services? All included in your monthly fee. Changes made within one business day.

Monthly reporting: Clear, jargon-free reports showing your website's uptime, speed performance, security status, and any actions taken. Complete transparency on what your £50/month is delivering.

Emergency support: Critical issues get same-day response. We're based in South Wales and available for face-to-face meetings in Swansea when needed.

Tourism and accommodation: With £658 million in annual visitor spending, downtime during peak season is catastrophic. Hotels, B&Bs, holiday lets, and activity providers need guaranteed uptime and fast performance to capture bookings.

Restaurants and hospitality: Wind Street venues, Mumbles restaurants, and cafes across Swansea depend on online menus, booking systems, and Google visibility. A broken website on a Friday evening means empty tables.

Trades and construction: Swansea's 1,140 construction businesses need their websites available 24/7 for emergency searches. If your site goes down on a Sunday morning, that emergency plumbing job goes to a competitor.

Professional services: Accountants, solicitors, and consultants handling sensitive client data need websites that are secure and GDPR-compliant. Regular maintenance isn't optional for businesses processing personal information.

E-commerce retailers: Swansea shops selling online need websites that process payments securely and load quickly. A slow checkout page increases cart abandonment; a security breach destroys customer trust permanently.

Value for money: £50/month costs less than a single hour with most IT support companies. It prevents problems that typically cost £5,000-£15,000 to fix reactively.

Local support: We're based in South Wales, not overseas. When you need help, you speak to someone who knows Swansea and can be on-site if necessary.

Proactive, not reactive: We catch problems before they affect your customers. Our monitoring runs 24/7 and we optimise performance monthly, your website gets better over time, not worse.

No lock-in contracts: Month-to-month agreement. Cancel anytime if you're not satisfied. We keep Swansea clients through quality, not contractual obligations.

Works with any website: We maintain WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, and custom-built websites regardless of who originally built them.
