Care after launch

Hosting is only useful when somebody takes responsibility.

Backups, security, maintenance and direct help work together to keep the website dependable. £30 hosting and maintenance is for Bespoke Websites; it is already part of the continuing £149 Managed Website service.

Clear value, not a vague promise

What you get — and why it helps your business.

Every part of the service has a practical purpose: helping customers understand you, trust you and take the next step.

01

Managed website hosting

A suitable hosting environment configured and maintained for the Pixel86 website.

Why it helps

The site has a dependable home and responsibility does not get passed between unrelated providers.

02

SSL and secure delivery

An SSL certificate and secure website connection maintained as part of the service.

Why it helps

Customers can browse and submit information without browser security warnings.

03

Routine backups

Regular copies retained so recovery is possible when an unexpected problem occurs.

Why it helps

A mistake or technical failure is less likely to become a complete loss of the website.

04

Maintenance and checks

Platform-appropriate updates, security checks, availability monitoring and technical care.

Why it helps

Problems are more likely to be prevented or spotted before they disrupt customers for long.

05

Reasonable minor changes

Updates to existing text and images within the agreed maintenance scope.

Why it helps

Opening hours, services, team details and other essentials do not have to stay out of date.

06

Direct human support

Help from Pixel86 rather than a faceless ticket queue that does not know the website.

Why it helps

You can explain the issue once to somebody who understands how the site was built.

One contact when the website needs attention.

Pixel86 only takes on new website projects where we also manage the hosting and maintenance. This keeps responsibility clear and puts the website into an environment we understand and can support properly.

Managed Website clients do not pay an additional £30. Hosting, SSL, maintenance and support are already included in their £149 monthly service.

The ongoing service can include

  • Managed website hosting
  • SSL certificate
  • Routine backups
  • Security and availability checks
  • Maintenance appropriate to the platform
  • Business email as agreed
  • Minor technical support
  • Reasonable text and image amendments

Maintenance is not unlimited development.

Reasonable updates to existing text and images can be handled through the maintenance relationship. New pages, redesigns, new functionality, integrations and active SEO are quoted separately.

Pixel86 explains whether a request falls within routine support before completing chargeable additional work.

You keep control of your domain.

The client should remain the registered owner of their domain name. Pixel86 connects and configures it while making renewal responsibility clear.

Because Bespoke Website clients own the paid deliverables, a transfer can be discussed subject to notice, outstanding payments and third-party licence requirements.

Helpful before we begin

Everything you may want to ask first.

Clear answers about price, process, ownership, support and what happens next.

How much does hosting cost?

Hosting and maintenance for Pixel86 Bespoke Websites begins at £30 per month. It is already included in the £149 Managed Website.

Can you host a website built elsewhere?

Potentially, after a review. Poorly built, compromised or heavily dependent websites may require corrective work or may not be suitable.

Is SSL included?

Yes. An SSL certificate is included for the hosted website.

Are changes included?

Reasonable minor text and image changes are included. New pages, redesigns and functionality are quoted separately.

Does hosting include SEO?

No. Hosting keeps the website online and maintained. Active SEO is a separate monthly service because improving rankings requires research, content and ongoing optimisation beyond technical care.

What counts as a minor website change?

Typical examples include updating existing wording, replacing an image, changing contact details or adjusting opening hours. New pages, major rewrites, new layouts, integrations and functionality are quoted before work begins.

What happens if the website goes offline?

Pixel86 investigates hosting or website issues covered by the service and works to restore normal operation. No provider can promise that the internet will never experience an outage, but monitoring, maintenance and backups reduce risk and improve recovery.

Can I move my bespoke website later?

A transfer can be discussed because bespoke clients own the agreed paid deliverables. Any move remains subject to notice, cleared invoices, compatible hosting and the terms of third-party licences or services.
