Frequently Asked Questions
I'm not technical—will I understand what you're doing?
Absolutely! We explain everything in plain English, not tech jargon. Our monthly reports are clear and easy to understand. When we talk, we communicate like regular people, not IT robots. Many of our Ferndale clients are creative professionals who appreciate our no-nonsense approach.
Can you maintain my Squarespace, Wix, or WordPress site?
Yes! We work with all major website platforms including WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, and custom sites. We've maintained artist portfolios, boutique shops, restaurant sites, gallery websites—every type of Ferndale business site.
What if I built my own site and it's kind of a mess?
No judgment! We've seen it all. We'll audit your site, identify what needs fixing, and either maintain it as-is or recommend improvements. Many Ferndale businesses come to us after DIY attempts. We're here to help, not criticize.
Do I really need daily backups?
Yes! Imagine losing all your portfolio photos, customer orders, or years of blog posts. Daily backups are insurance against hacking, technical failures, and accidents. We've saved many Ferndale businesses from devastating losses. It's affordable protection you can't skip.
What happens if my website goes down?
Our monitoring detects downtime immediately and alerts us. We investigate right away and usually fix issues quickly—often before you even notice. For major problems, we can restore from backups to get your Ferndale business back online fast.
Can you help with updating my content and photos?
Yes! Minor content updates like changing text, swapping photos, updating hours, or posting news are typically included in your maintenance plan. Larger updates are quoted separately but completed quickly since we already know your site.
What if I'm not happy with the service?
We don't lock you into long-term contracts. All plans are month-to-month with 30 days notice to cancel. We earn your business every month by providing great service, not by trapping you in a contract. Most Ferndale clients stay with us for years because they're happy.
Why choose a local company instead of a big national service?
We're part of the Ferndale community, not a faceless corporation. You get personal attention from real people who understand local businesses. When you call, you reach us directly—no phone trees or overseas call centers. We care about Ferndale's success because we're part of it.
