How important is it to have someone update your web site?

Unfortunately a lot of web sites out there are never updated with new and current information. People get really picly on how their web site is going to look but never think about the content and how they are going to keep their web site current, interesting and informational.

A web site should always have current and up-to-date information. It's good for your business and it's good for the search engines.

It is true that many web designers try to make their money on web site maintenance and web site updates.

It is really important for people to make sure to know what are the rates for updates and maintenance services for their web site once it has been completed.

As far as I am concerned, I like to offer a web package. I include the hosting and the maintenance in one price for the year. It seems fair.

Of course, you must have a solid contract with the client. How many changes per month and what type of changes will be done each month.

If the changes have to do with the web site layout or graphics then I charge an hourly fee.

Anyway, my advice is to think long term when you get your web site designed.

Have someone that will be able to update your web site on a yearly basis.
