What is the cost of website maintenance?

Website maintenance typically costs $50–$300 per month depending on the complexity of your site.

Basic maintenance includes software updates, security patches, backups, and uptime monitoring. More comprehensive plans add content updates, performance optimization, SEO monitoring, and priority support. WordPress sites generally need more active maintenance due to plugin and core updates. Neglecting maintenance can lead to security vulnerabilities, broken functionality, and declining search rankings. Many web agencies, including MooseBase, offer maintenance packages that keep your site secure, fast, and up to date without requiring your attention.
