Discuss website maintenance

Start with the website you have

Website maintenance for Calgary starts with the site's platform, condition and business purpose. Identify the pages and customer journeys that matter, outstanding faults, recent changes and who can approve work. An existing-site review helps separate routine care from takeover repairs, redesign or new development that needs its own scope.

Agree which workstreams are included, who carries out each check and what evidence is recorded. Review the published hosting and care plans and the website care planning guide; these checks are not a promise that every workstream is included in every tier.

Website maintenance scope components

Access and dependencies

Record the domain registrar, DNS, hosting, website administrator, source repository where applicable, analytics and connected services. Confirm authorised access, account recovery and responsibility for subscriptions and renewals. The customer keeps ownership of critical accounts.

Backups and recovery checks

Identify which files, database and configuration are captured, where copies are kept and who can restore them. Agree retention and a recovery-check method appropriate to the platform. Record the result and any gaps; a successful backup job alone does not demonstrate that the website can be restored.

Updates and release approval

Review platform and dependency updates, compatibility and known issues before a change. Agree a maintenance window, recovery point and rollback approach. Use a staging environment where available, verify agreed pages and functions after release, and record changes and exceptions. Confirm who approves content edits and publication.

Forms and connected services

Agree authorised test submissions and check delivery to the intended inbox or connected system, not just the on-screen confirmation. Review relevant booking, payment, CRM or other integrations where present. Define who resolves vendor-side faults and who checks analytics, consent settings and performance after changes.

Calgary website maintenance: make the monthly scope explicit

A useful Calgary website maintenance proposal makes recurring responsibility testable. Before comparing plans, record the platform, hosting relationship, domain and DNS ownership, business-critical pages, forms, analytics, approval contacts, backup evidence, connected vendors, and current faults.

Included recurring work

List each agreed update, check, report, content allowance, and monitoring task with its frequency and owner. Do not assume that hosting, support, maintenance, and new development are the same service.

Requests and releases

Define the request channel, authorised approvers, response targets, maintenance windows, post-change checks, exception handling, and rollback path that apply under the agreement.

Recovery and account control

Keep the domain, hosting, analytics, billing, code, and recovery accounts under customer ownership. Identify what is backed up, who can restore it, and when a restoration check was last recorded; a successful backup job alone is not recovery evidence.

Excluded and separately scoped work

Keep routine care distinct from redesigns, migrations, new features and substantial repairs. State whether takeover repairs, malware cleanup, accessibility remediation, new integrations, and substantial content work need a separate estimate.

North Star has no Calgary office. Recurring care is delivered remotely from its Prince George and Grande Prairie operations. Any travel, physical access, or locally coordinated work is identified and scoped separately before scheduling.

Compare the published care tiers, then request a Calgary website maintenance scope review with the website URL, platform, current concern, required recurring work, and approval contact. Do not send passwords through the enquiry form.

Remote website care with clear responsibilities

North Star coordinates website maintenance remotely for Calgary businesses. Share the site URL, platform, hosting provider, current concerns and an approval contact to scope the work. Do not send passwords through the initial enquiry; agree an appropriate access method during onboarding. North Star does not claim a local office or local team in Calgary.

Website maintenance and website support overlap but are not the same: recurring updates, backups, monitoring and recovery checks keep the site healthy; approved content changes and troubleshooting are handled only within the selected plan. New features, migrations and substantial repairs require separate scope.

Document request channels, included tasks, approval steps, maintenance windows, response targets and escalation contacts in the selected agreement. Availability and recovery depend on the platform, access and third-party providers; the page does not promise immediate fixes or uninterrupted service. Separately scope new features, substantial content work, redesigns and repairs outside the agreed care plan.

Frequently asked questions

What is included in website maintenance?

Scope can include updates, security checks, backups, uptime monitoring, performance review, content changes, form testing, analytics, and technical support. The selected care plan defines the included work.

Does the customer keep ownership of the website?

Yes. The customer keeps ownership of the domain, website, content, analytics, and critical accounts. North Star can manage them without taking ownership away.

Can North Star maintain a site built by another provider?

Often, yes. The first step is an access, platform, hosting, security, dependency, and code review so the support scope is based on the actual condition of the site.
