Recurring care so the site stays current — hosting, monitoring, security, schema maintenance, citation reporting, and dedicated change hours every month.
Most clients sit on Growth Care. Essential is for owners who'll handle their own copy edits; Authority is for sites where the website is the business.
One-off rebuilds are easy to sell but they don't keep clients in front of AI search as the standards move. The care plan is what makes the AI-readiness investment compound.
llms.txt is changing. Schema.org adds new types. AI crawlers update their parsers. A site optimised today drifts out of currency without active maintenance.
Modern cloud infrastructure stays cheap and fast — but DNS issues, SSL renewals, and dependency security patches still need someone watching. Care plans put that someone on retainer.
Knowing whether ChatGPT, Claude, Grok and Perplexity are actually citing your site, and for which queries, is the only way to measure whether the AI-readiness work is paying off. We track it monthly.
Every plan includes dedicated hours for content updates, copy tweaks, and small features. Beats one-off £150/hour change requests every time you spot a typo.
Every package includes the first year of Essential Care. Upgrades to Growth or Authority are typically agreed on the launch call — once you've seen the live site and have a feel for how much you'll be tweaking.
