Why it matters
Most businesses in the UAE launch a great website and then leave it untouched — until the day it breaks. WordPress, WooCommerce and Shopify sites need constant, quiet upkeep: security patches, plugin and platform updates, backups, and speed tuning as content grows. Skip it, and the risks compound. An un-updated site is the single most common way local businesses get hacked or defaced. Forms silently stop sending enquiries. Images pile up and drag load times on mobile, where most of your Dubai traffic is. A plugin conflict takes the store offline during your biggest campaign. And when it does go wrong, you're scrambling to find a developer who understands a site they've never seen. A maintenance plan turns all of that from a periodic emergency into a predictable, low monthly cost. We handle the updates and backups, monitor uptime and security, keep the site fast, and give you a set amount of edit time each month — so your website stays an asset instead of slowly becoming a liability, and you always know exactly who to message when you need something changed.
What's included
Updates, tested & applied
Core, theme and plugin updates on WordPress and WooCommerce, or platform and app updates on Shopify — applied carefully and tested so an update never breaks your site.
Backups & recovery
Automated daily or weekly offsite backups with a tested restore process, so a bad update, hack or human error is a quick roll-back — not a rebuild.
Security & monitoring
Hardened logins, firewall and malware scanning, plus uptime monitoring that alerts us the moment your site goes offline — often before you notice.
Speed & performance care
Ongoing image, caching and database optimisation so the site stays fast on mobile across Dubai as your content and traffic grow.
Monthly edits & support
A block of hours each month for content changes, price updates, new pages and small fixes — handled quickly, without scoping a new project every time.
A real UAE team to call
Email or WhatsApp a team based in the Emirates, working your hours — with defined response times and priority handling for anything that takes the site down.

FAQ
How much does website maintenance cost in Dubai?
Website maintenance in Dubai typically runs from around AED 500 per month for a small brochure site on a basic care plan to AED 3,000+ per month for a busy ecommerce store or custom platform that needs proactive monitoring and regular changes. Rather than a vague retainer, we quote a fixed monthly price against a clear scope — updates, backups, security, uptime monitoring and a set amount of edit time — so you know exactly what you're paying for and what's covered.
What's actually included in a maintenance plan?
Our plans cover the work that keeps a site healthy but rarely gets done: core, theme and plugin updates applied and tested, daily or weekly offsite backups, security hardening and malware monitoring, uptime checks, speed and image optimisation, and a monthly block of hours for content edits and small changes. You also get a real person in Dubai to email or WhatsApp when something breaks — not a ticket queue in another timezone.
Do you maintain WordPress, Shopify and custom-built sites?
Yes. We maintain WordPress and WooCommerce sites, Shopify stores, and custom Next.js or React platforms — including sites we didn't originally build. For sites built elsewhere we start with an audit so we understand the stack, hosting and any risks before taking over, then move you onto a plan with confidence.
Why does my site need ongoing maintenance at all?
A website is software, and software drifts. Plugins and platforms release security patches constantly, and an un-updated WordPress or WooCommerce site is one of the most common ways UAE businesses get hacked. Beyond security, small things pile up — a broken form, images that slow the site on mobile, an expired plugin licence — and each one quietly costs you enquiries. Maintenance is far cheaper than an emergency rebuild after a site is defaced, goes down during a campaign, or drops out of Google.
How fast do you respond if my site goes down?
Downtime is the one thing we treat as urgent. Our monitoring alerts us if your site goes offline, and plans include a defined response time — typically same business day, with faster response for ecommerce and mission-critical sites. Because we're based in the UAE, you're not waiting for an overseas team to wake up while your store is offline during peak hours.
Can I get edits and content changes without a big project each time?
That's the point of a care plan. Most plans include a monthly allowance of hours for edits — updating prices, adding a team member, swapping banners, publishing an offer — handled quickly without scoping a new project every time. Larger changes are quoted separately, but the day-to-day upkeep is already covered.
