WordPress Maintenance & Website Support

Resolve the issues. Plan the improvements. Keep your website useful.

Our approach

Report and resolve website support requests

Website support works better when a report includes the affected URL, what should happen, what actually happens and the impact on the business. We use that context to distinguish an urgent fault from a planned improvement or a request that needs a separate scope.

Before taking on a site, we review the platform, access and dependencies. This avoids promising support for a component that another supplier controls or a system whose operation has not been established.

Test and release website updates

The appropriate process depends on the task, but responsibility should remain clear: who approves it, where it is tested and how completion is checked. A small text edit and a payment integration change need different levels of review.

Separate maintenance from new development

Ongoing maintenance, issue resolution and larger improvements can be scoped together or separately. We explain the arrangement and any response terms in the agreement. This page does not promise an invented response time or imply that every request is included.

Discuss your target markets

Bird works from London and Essex with businesses serving nearby customers, the wider UK and international markets. We agree which of those audiences matters to this brief before recommending pages or campaigns. Contact the team to confirm meeting arrangements and bring the website, business priorities and any relevant constraints to the discussion.

Frequently asked questions

What kinds of website support requests can you handle?

We review faults, updates and improvement requests against the platform and access available. A useful request describes the affected URL, expected behaviour and what actually happens. New features may need a separate development estimate.

Is website maintenance the same as hosting?

They cover different responsibilities. Hosting operates the environment, while maintenance may cover application updates, compatibility checks and care of the website. Your agreement should state who owns each part.

Do you offer guaranteed response times?

Any response or resolution commitment must be written into the agreed support service. We do not assume a universal service level for every website or request. Urgency, coverage and escalation arrangements are discussed before the service starts.

Can you support a website built by another agency?

We can assess the platform, access and existing condition before agreeing support. A technical review may identify dependencies or unresolved issues that need attention first. We then define what the service can reliably cover.

How are changes tested before they go live?

The process depends on the website and the request. Where appropriate, changes are checked in a suitable test environment and validated against representative journeys. Ownership of release approval, backups and rollback should be clear.

What should we include when reporting a fault?

Provide the URL, steps to reproduce the problem, the device or browser and the expected result. Screenshots or a short recording can help. Avoid sending passwords or sensitive customer information in an ordinary support brief.
