What’s Included in Website Maintenance — and Why Does It Matter?

Your website is live — now what?
A common misconception is that once a website is launched, it can run on autopilot. But just like your car or your health, it needs regular checkups to stay secure, up-to-date, and performing well. That’s where website maintenance comes in.

At Ramp Design Co., I offer proactive maintenance plans to keep your website running smoothly — so you can stay focused on your business.

Why It Matters
