    Pairing Plans for Maximum Value

    Most clients pair the Monthly Support plan with a Web Services Retainer. The monthly plan handles proactive maintenance (plugin updates, security, backups), while the retainer covers project work — new pages, design changes, content creation, and marketing tasks.

    This combination ensures your site stays secure and current and gives you on-demand access to our full team for growth initiatives — without the overhead of hiring in-house.

    Common Questions

    Do I need the monthly support plan if I already have a web services retainer?

    YES — the monthly maintenance program is a proactive service with scheduled tasks for plugins and theme updates each month.

    Do I need a retainer if I already have monthly support?

    It depends on how much additional work you anticipate — new pages, rebranding, content, or cart expansion. Clients often pair both to cover proactive maintenance and project work.

    Can I use a retainer to build a new website?

    Yes! For complex projects involving multiple integrations or unknown database factors, a Web Services Retainer is the best way to start. Your true project cost is determined through the full production process.

    Can I use a retainer for SEO and PPC?

    Yes, for specific tasks like meta description updates or PPC audits. However, for long-term results, a monthly SEO or PPC program is essential — Google updates its algorithm 1,000+ times per year.
