Why Maintenance Matters

Sites don’t break all at once. They drift.

Nothing dramatic happens the week you stop maintaining a website. The cost shows up a quarter later, in traffic you never see and leads you never receive.

Left alone

  • Pages slow down as content and plugins pile up
  • Unpatched vulnerabilities sit exposed for months
  • Software drifts out of support and breaks quietly
  • Broken forms swallow leads nobody knows were sent
  • Checkout errors cost sales before anyone notices
  • Search rankings slide as Core Web Vitals decay

On a plan

  • A measurably faster site, held to a performance budget
  • Patches applied on a schedule, tested before release
  • Forms and checkout verified on a fixed cadence
  • Rankings protected by technical SEO upkeep
  • One monthly report showing exactly what shipped
  • A team that already knows your site when you call
Why Blue Mint

A senior team, on retainer, in one bill.

Security is the baseline

Patches are staged and tested before production. Most breaches we clean up for new clients trace back to a plugin nobody updated for eight months.

Speed is a revenue line

We watch Core Web Vitals the way you watch sales. Every plan includes a performance budget your site is held to.

Response times you can plan around

Published, tracked, and reported — from 48 hours down to two depending on plan. Outages jump the queue on every plan.

Modern stack, no lock-in

Next.js, Vercel, headless CMS, or the WordPress you already have. You own the code and the credentials from day one.

Flat pricing, at-cost infrastructure

One monthly number. Hosting and API costs pass through at cost with no markup, and we email you before any month runs high.

Built for the long run

The same people every month, who know why your site is built the way it is — not a rotating queue of outsourced tickets.

Frequently Asked

Questions about monthly plans

How do I know which plan I need?

If your site works and you just want it looked after, start at Essential or Standard Care. If you want someone actively improving it every month, Premium Care. If you also need traffic — SEO programs, content, social, ads — you want a Partner tier. Book a free call and we will tell you which one fits, including if the answer is none of them yet.

What is the difference between Care and Partner?

Care tiers keep an existing site healthy: hosting, patching, backups, monitoring, edits, and technical SEO upkeep. Partner tiers include all of that and add the growth engine on top — Google Business Profile management, social scheduling, content and blog production, paid ads, email marketing, and a much larger block of development hours.

Can I change plans later?

Yes. Move up any time and the change takes effect immediately, pro-rated. Move down or cancel with 15 days notice on Care tiers, 30 days on Partner tiers. No contracts, no exit fee, and you keep your site, your accounts, and your backups either way.

What counts as a website edit?

Anything we can complete inside a normal work session: text and image swaps, a new team member, updated pricing, a new blog post, a product added, a form field changed, a section reordered. If a request needs new design or new functionality, we scope it separately and tell you before any work starts.

Do unused hours roll over?

On the Partner tiers, development hours roll over for 30 days within an active subscription — use 8 of 15 this month and you have 22 available next month. On the Care tiers they do not: hours there are reserved capacity, not credit, and your slot in the queue is held whether or not you use it. If you know a heavy month is coming, tell us and we will move hours forward instead of losing them.

Do you support WordPress and Shopify?

Both. On WordPress, core, theme, plugin, and PHP updates are staged and tested before they touch production. On Shopify, theme updates, app conflicts, product uploads, checkout and speed work, and Liquid customization are all in scope. We also maintain custom Next.js and headless builds, which is where most of our clients end up.

Do you work with existing codebases?

Yes. We onboard with a full technical review and documentation pass, then take over from there. Works for WordPress, custom React/Next.js, Shopify, and more.

What if I need a new feature?

Describe it and we will send a fixed-price quote within two business days. Standard Care and above can also spend included hours on it — we will tell you what gets deferred that month before we shift focus.

How fast is support?

Essential replies within 48 hours, Standard within 24, Premium and Growth within 4 business hours, Elite within 2. Anything that takes the site down is treated as an outage on every plan and worked immediately.

Is hosting included?

Hosting is managed for you but billed at cost — we recommend Vercel, Netlify, or AWS depending on your stack, typically $20–$100/month with no markup from us.

What if I need more than Elite Partner includes?

For custom scopes, dedicated engineering squads, or enterprise needs, contact us for a custom retainer. We have worked with teams needing 100+ hours a month.

Let’s keep your website performing at its best.

Thirty minutes, no pitch deck. We’ll look at what you have and tell you which plan fits — or that you don’t need one yet.
