Website Maintenance Plans: $97, $197 and $397

Pick by what a day of downtime costs you, not by how big the site is. Essential for a brochure site, Professional for a site that generates leads, Managed for revenue-critical sites and stores.
The first four jobs run on every tier: updates, offsite backups, uptime monitoring, and security scanning. The rest scale with the plan.
If the honest answer is that you need the cheapest plan, we will tell you that.

What keeps the phone quiet

What goes wrong on a site nobody is watching.

An update breaks the form

A plugin updates itself on a Tuesday night. The contact form stops sending. Nobody notices for three weeks, because nobody was checking the site after updates, and the leads went nowhere.

The backup was on the same server

The host had a problem, the site went down, and the backup went with it because it lived in the same place. Offsite, daily, with retention is the whole point.

A mystery quote before a price

You asked what maintenance costs and got a sales call. The prices are on this page. You will not get a mystery quote or a pitch before you can find out what this costs.

“It’s been a blessing working with Clint over the years on website projects. He always makes it look better than I had pictured in my mind.”

What you get

Built to book the job.

Essential, $97 a month

For brochure and small business sites. Monthly core, theme, and plugin updates. Daily offsite backups with 30-day retention. 24/7 uptime monitoring with alerts. Daily malware and security scanning. SSL and domain expiry monitoring. Monthly report. 30 minutes of content edits a month. Our cell number, 24/7/365.

Professional, $197 a month, most chosen

For sites that generate leads and cannot afford to be broken. Everything in Essential, plus weekly updates with a visual check before and after, 90-day backup retention, quarterly Core Web Vitals tuning, broken link and 404 monitoring, quarterly WCAG accessibility scan, error log review with fixes, 2 hours of content or dev time a month, and compromise cleanup included.

Managed, $397 a month

For revenue-critical sites, membership sites, and stores. Everything in Professional, plus a staging environment where updates are tested before they touch production, monthly performance and Core Web Vitals monitoring, monthly accessibility scan with remediation, schema and technical SEO health monitoring, 5 hours of content or dev time a month, and a quarterly strategy call.

Every plan, the core four

Updates, daily offsite backups, uptime checks every five minutes with alerts to us rather than to you, and daily malware scanning plus SSL and domain expiry monitoring.

Our cell number on all three tiers

Never gated behind the top plan. We are first responders, so 24/7/365 is how we already work.

What no plan includes

Hosting is billed separately. New page builds and redesigns are project work. Paid ads, SEO campaigns, and social media are separate services. Anything past your included monthly time is quoted before we start it. Web hosting

The short answer

Website maintenance plans from BlakSheep Creative start at $97 a month and cover updates, daily offsite backups, daily security scanning, and uptime monitoring every five minutes. Three plans: Essential at $97, Professional at $197, and Managed at $397 a month. Tiers differ in how often jobs run, retention, included time, and review depth. No contract, cancel anytime, our cell number on every tier, and two months free when you pay annually.

Common questions about website maintenance plans

Which website maintenance plan should I choose?

Professional at $197 fits most sites that bring in leads. Choose Essential at $97 if the site is a brochure that rarely changes, and Managed at $397 if downtime costs you money the same day it happens. The question that decides it is not how big the site is, it is what a day of downtime costs you.

Can I change plans later?

Yes, up or down, at any time. Everything is month to month unless you prepay a year, and there is no cancellation fee. If your site starts generating leads and Essential is no longer enough, moving up takes a message.

What does a website maintenance package normally cost?

For a small business site, $95 to $300 a month is the normal range in 2026. Under about $50 a month you are usually buying automated plugin updates with no human review. Our plans run $97 to $397, and the prices are published so you do not need a sales call to find out.

Is there a contract?

No. Month to month, cancel anytime. Pay for a year up front and two months are free, which is the only commitment we offer and it is optional. You can also move up or down a tier at any time, and there is no cancellation fee on any plan.

What happens in the first month?

We audit the current state of the site, tell you what we found, and fix anything urgent before the regular plan work begins. Most sites we take over were built by someone else, so the first month is usually the busiest.

Do plans include emergency work?

Compromise cleanup is included on Professional and Managed. On Essential it is quoted separately, because a real compromise is a multi-day job and we would rather price it honestly than bury it in a monthly fee. Anything past your included monthly time on any plan is quoted before we start it.
