Ongoing updates and support
A website is not a one-time project — plugins age, certificates expire, and content drifts out of date. Without maintenance, security vulnerabilities and broken forms silently cost you leads.
E26 Media offers website maintenance retainers for clients we built and for sites inherited from other agencies — security patches, uptime monitoring, backup verification, and minor content updates on a predictable monthly fee.
Based in Mangalore, we respond via WhatsApp and email with SLA-backed turnaround for production issues.
Monthly security and dependency updates for WordPress, Next.js, or static stacks. SSL renewal monitoring. Daily or weekly backups with restore testing quarterly. Uptime alerts when your site goes down.
Minor content edits — text changes, image swaps, new team members — within included hours. Larger features are quoted as enhancement sprints.
Break-fix support costs more per incident and waits until something breaks — often during a campaign or product launch. Retainers prioritise your site in the queue and include proactive monitoring.
Clients running Google Ads or local SEO cannot afford multi-hour outages. Maintenance pays for itself the first time we prevent a hack or restore from backup.

Proof
Common questions about website maintenance in Mangalore and Karnataka.
Investment depends on scope — features, integrations, timeline, and content volume. After a free consultation at our Kanakanady office or via video call, we provide a fixed quote with milestone payments. No hidden line items.
Entry-level projects start lower; enterprise-grade builds require larger investment. We share transparent pricing bands during discovery so you can budget realistically before committing.
Yes. Typical structure: 40% at project kickoff, 30% at design or mid-build approval, 30% at launch. Larger software and app projects can be split across more milestones.
Often yes. Extremely low quotes usually mean templates, no SEO, no support, or junior outsourcing. For business-critical work, invest in quality delivery, documentation, and post-launch support.
We offer optional maintenance retainers covering security updates, backups, content changes, and monitoring. Marketing retainers include monthly reporting and optimisation.
Share your goals, page count or feature list, timeline, and budget range via our contact form or WhatsApp. We respond within 24 business hours with a realistic range and recommended approach.
Focused projects often complete in 3–8 weeks. Complex software, apps, or multi-integration builds typically run 8–16+ weeks. You receive a milestone timeline before development starts.
Rush delivery is possible when scope is clear and content is ready. We will flag trade-offs — reduced custom design, phased launches, or additional resources — so you decide with full visibility.
Delayed content, unclear approvals, and scope changes mid-build are the top causes. We use weekly demos and written sign-offs to keep momentum.
Most projects kick off within 5–10 business days after agreement and initial payment, once discovery inputs are scheduled.
Discover → Plan → Design → Build → Launch → Grow. You see staging progress weekly, approve designs before code, and receive training plus documentation at handover.
