Websites and technical maintenance

A website is only finished if it is still fast, secure and current two years from now. We build websites and keep them running.

Together with PRGV

Graphic design is usually done together with PRGV — Peter Rijmer Grafische Vormgeving. They define the look and the brand experience, we turn that into a working, fast website and take care of the technical maintenance afterwards. One point of contact for both design and technology.

What you get

• Your own admin: pages, photos, galleries and references are yours to edit
• Multilingual where needed, with clean language URLs and hreflang
• Findable: its own title, description and heading per page, plus sitemap and redirects
• Fast on mobile: images are optimised and pages load without detours
• Privacy-friendly: statistics only after explicit consent

Technical maintenance

Also for websites built elsewhere. We take over maintenance and take care of:

• Hosting and certificates (HTTPS) that never quietly expire
• Platform and component updates, including security patches
• Daily back-ups and a tested restore procedure
• Monitoring: we notice when the site is down, not your customer
• Small content changes without any fuss

Taking over from your design agency or hosting provider

Is your website built by a design agency, or hosted somewhere else right now? We take over the technical maintenance — without your visitors noticing a thing, and including domain management. You keep your own designer; we make sure the technology underneath is sound.

• Migration of website, e-mail and domain names: prepared, tested and carried out at a quiet moment
• Domain management: registration, renewal and DNS handled by us, so a domain never quietly expires
• One point of contact and one invoice for hosting, domains, certificates and maintenance
• Your design agency stays in charge of the design — we do not touch your brand identity

Fast and secure web servers, in Curaçao and in the Netherlands

We run the websites we maintain on our own servers in data centres in Curaçao and in the Netherlands. If your audience is on the island, the site sits on the island; if it is in Europe, it sits in the Netherlands. We pick whichever location is fastest for each client.

• Speed: servers we manage ourselves, with caching and image optimisation, tuned to the real load time of your pages
• Security: firewall, shielded admin environments and HTTPS certificates that renew automatically
• Back-ups in a different location than the server itself, with a restore procedure we actually rehearse
• Monitoring day and night: we spot an outage before your customer reports it

WordPress maintenance and support

A large part of the websites we maintain runs on WordPress — including websites with a custom theme built specifically for that client. We maintain them all, whether we built them or somebody else did.

• Updates of WordPress, plug-ins and themes — first on a test environment, only then live
• Custom theme maintenance: changes, extensions and getting things working again after a major update
• Security: login protection, malware scanning and cleaning up and restoring after a hack
• Support for your own editors: a question about a page, a form or a plug-in is simply a question for us
