When budgeting for a business website in Laois, allow for its ongoing technical care as well as the initial build. The work required depends on the website, its features and its current condition.
Istech’s maintenance and care plans are quoted on a yearly basis. Your written quote sets out the annual fee and the work included. Content changes, including text edits, new images and new pages, are quoted separately.
Compare the scope of each quote before comparing its price. A brochure website and an online shop can need different backup schedules, testing and support. Ask whether hosting, paid software licences and domain renewals are included or charged separately.
For our service overview, see Website Maintenance & Care Plans. If you are planning a new site, our website cost guide covers build budgets, while the business website checklist helps you define its requirements.
The precise tasks, frequency and support arrangements should be agreed in writing. A care plan reduces avoidable technical risks; it does not guarantee uninterrupted service, protection from every security incident, enquiries or search rankings.
Payments, bookings, memberships and connections to other systems can require additional checks. An ecommerce website also needs backup and restore arrangements suited to changing orders and stock.
Outdated software, unsupported plugins or existing faults may need attention before routine maintenance begins. Any initial repair or cleanup should be scoped and priced separately before the work starts.
Clarify how to report a problem, the support hours, what troubleshooting is included and how work outside the plan is charged. Do not assume a plan includes round-the-clock support or a fixed response time unless the quote says so.
Text changes, new images, new pages and other content updates are quoted separately. Technical maintenance does not include an ongoing marketing or SEO campaign. If you need SEO work, agree its scope separately.
If your website needs a substantial redesign or new functionality, we can discuss a separate WordPress website project.
Send us your website address, tell us which features it uses and mention any current problems. Contact Istech to discuss an appropriate scope and yearly quote for your Laois business.
Istech provides a yearly quote based on the website, its features, current condition and agreed support requirements. The written quote confirms the fee, VAT treatment and work included.

Check your quote. It should state whether hosting is included, along with domain and software renewal costs and who manages them.
We can review the website and its setup before agreeing a plan. Existing faults or unsupported software may need separately agreed work first.
No. Technical maintenance and an ongoing SEO campaign have different scopes. Any SEO work should be agreed separately.
