RC MEDIA / MAINTENANCE
A practical website maintenance checklist
Maintain a business website with recurring checks for content, forms, routes, analytics, backups, updates, security headers, performance, and search visibility.
Start with the real job
A website is an operating system for information and enquiries, not a one-time design file. Maintenance protects the value of the initial build by making sure routes, forms, media, analytics, and public details continue to work as the business changes.
Why it matters
Small failures often accumulate quietly: a form may stop delivering, a redirect may break, content may become outdated, an external script may slow a page, or a deployment setting may bypass the application server.
A practical approach
Set a recurring checklist for critical journeys, search-console signals, error logs, software updates, backups, TLS, page speed, structured data, and contact details. Review high-value pages when services, prices, teams, or policies change.
What to watch
Document who owns each check and what recovery looks like. A checklist only improves reliability when someone can see, act on, and verify the result.
