Website Maintenance
& Webmaster Services
Practical ongoing support for businesses that need an experienced web developer to maintain, troubleshoot, update or improve an existing website — without hiring an agency or full-time developer.
Website Maintenance
Keep an Existing Website Working
Not every website project requires a complete rebuild. Businesses often need an experienced developer who can step into an existing site, understand how it works and make the changes necessary to keep it useful.
Joe Stebbins provides website maintenance and webmaster services for custom PHP sites, WordPress installations and other established business websites. Work can range from routine content changes to troubleshooting broken functionality, repairing code, improving performance or planning a larger modernization.
The objective is straightforward: solve the actual problem without turning every support request into a new website project.
Webmaster Support
Technical Help When You Need It
PHP Troubleshooting
Diagnose PHP errors, broken forms, database problems and custom-code issues on existing sites.
WordPress Support
Theme, plugin, layout and content work when an existing business site is already built on WordPress.
Performance Fixes
Identify unnecessary scripts, oversized assets, inefficient code and other causes of poor website performance.
Forms & Email
Repair or improve contact forms, notifications, transactional email and customer communication workflows.
Responsive Repairs
Correct layouts, menus, media and interactive elements that do not work properly on mobile devices.
Website Migrations
Hosting, Domain & Website Moves
Moving a website can involve much more than copying files. Databases, PHP versions, DNS, email, SSL, redirects, configuration files and third-party integrations can all affect whether the site works correctly after a migration.
Webmaster support can include moving websites between hosting providers, transferring or reconfiguring domains, restoring sites from backups and identifying compatibility issues before they become outages.
Migration planning matters. A successful move should account for the website, database, email, DNS, SSL and search-engine URLs rather than treating them as unrelated pieces.
Technical SEO Maintenance
Fix the Technical Details Google Depends On
Website maintenance can also include the technical foundation that helps search engines crawl and understand a site. That may involve canonical URLs, redirects, XML sitemaps, robots directives, structured data, page titles, descriptions and internal links.
Technical SEO work is particularly important after a redesign, domain change, migration or URL restructuring, when small configuration mistakes can create duplicate pages, broken links or indexing problems.
Ongoing Improvements
Maintenance Can Become Modernization
Sometimes routine maintenance reveals that an older website has reached the point where continued patching costs more than improving the underlying structure. In that case, changes can be prioritized gradually or moved into a focused rebuild.
Joe can maintain the existing site while helping determine when a website redesign or rebuild, custom PHP application, e-commerce rebuild or booking website improvement makes more sense.

FAQ
Website Maintenance Questions
Can you maintain a website you did not build?
Often, yes. Existing code and hosting first need to be reviewed so the problem and condition of the site can be understood before changes are made.
Do you work on WordPress websites?
Yes. Although Joe specializes in custom development, existing WordPress sites can be maintained, repaired, updated or redesigned when that is the appropriate solution.
Can you fix PHP or database errors?
Yes. Troubleshooting can include PHP errors, MySQL issues, forms, custom scripts, broken functionality and compatibility problems.
Can you move my website to another host?
Yes. Website migrations can include files, databases and the related configuration work needed to move the site while minimizing disruption.
