What is Web Maintenance?
Web Maintenance is a service that allows adjustment,
rearrangement and updates to a web site. It includes revising
and editing existing web pages to keep your website up to
date. Examples of web maintenance are changing text, images,
news, promotions, or advertisements on your web site.
Why Web Maintenance is important?
Maintenance is an important part of having a web site. If
your web site content do not change from time to time you may
lose your audience or their return to you. Research shows that a
web site needs to be frequently updated and maintained for the following reasons:
- Changes in your business, e.g. new products or prices.
- Malfunction of the hyperlinks and graphic on a web site.
- Fresh and updated information ensures visitors have a reason
to visit or return to your web site.
Yet web maintenance is no easy task. Perhaps you are no longer in touch
with the original designers of your web site, or you have
developed a web site yourself but you don't have the time and/or
expertise to develop it further.
Why do you need Web Maintenance?
A user-friendly web site can increase your customers'
satisfaction, and hence they will keep building good business
relationship with you. Web maintenance allows you to achieve this by:
Changing content - Editing text, images, and other items when
you have promotions and advertisements on your web site allows
you to react quickly to fast-changing market conditions.
Increasing traffic - Internet surfers will come back for
information if your web site keeps updating constantly.

E-Mail maintenance
E-Mail maintenance is important especially if your company
has a large number of employees. If an employee resigns yet
his/her e-mail account is still active, then your ex-employee
can still access to the e-mail account and this would allow him
to keep in touch with the clients of your company. Therefore,
you need an e-mail maintenance service so that whenever your
staff leave your company, his/her email account can be removed immediately. |
