Website care plans for Melbourne businesses

Website Care is Pylon Digital's range of website care plans: hosting, security, updates, small edits and monthly checks on how Google and AI assistants find and describe your business. It is for every business with a Pylon Digital website, so the site stays fast, secure and current without anyone on your team managing it.

Is it right for you

Who it's for

Website Care is for every business with a Pylon Digital website, from the day it launches: clinics, trades, retailers, venues, not-for-profits, startups and professional firms that want the site kept secure and current without making upkeep part of someone's day job.

Why does a finished website need ongoing care?

A finished website needs care because everything around it keeps changing. Browsers and frameworks release updates, security threats shift, search engines and AI assistants change how they choose sources, and your business adds people and services. A site nobody looks after slowly becomes slower, less secure and less accurate, usually without anyone noticing.

Website Care puts one team on all of it. The people who built the site host it, patch it, edit it and watch how it performs, so nothing falls between a web agency and an IT provider. Our guide to website essentials for accounting firms shows what a well-kept professional firm site looks like in practice.

How does Website Care fit with our other Pylon Digital services?

Website Care is the website half of Pylon Digital’s Run services. If you also use AI agents, automations or private AI, Managed AI does the same job for those systems: hosting, monitoring and changes, run by the same team that looks after your website.

What we check

What a monthly care report covers

Each month we check speed, accessibility, uptime, certificates, security headers and how AI assistants answer your clients’ questions, then fix what needs fixing.

An example monthly website care report, with sample data, showing Lighthouse-style scores, 30 days of uptime, certificate and domain checks, security headers and an AI-visibility check across AI assistants.

Deliverables

What you get

One monthly plan covers the website end to end: where it runs, how it is protected, how it changes and how visible it is.

  • Hosting

    Your site is hosted in fully GDPR-compliant data centres, with uptime and certificate monitoring so problems are caught quickly.

  • Security

    HTTPS with HSTS, security headers, multi-factor authentication on every account that can change the site and a registrar lock on your domain, checked every month.

  • Updates

    Framework, CMS and dependency updates, tested on a staging copy before they reach the live site.

  • Small edits

    Text, image, profile and FAQ changes made for you, within the monthly edit allowance for your level.

  • AI-visibility monitoring

    An agreed set of client questions tested each month in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Mode, recording whether your business is named or cited.

  • Search health

    Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools checked for crawl errors, broken links and pages dropping out of the index.

  • Backups

    Content and configuration backed up so an earlier version can be restored, with the schedule recorded in the site's run book.

  • Monthly report

    A one-page summary for owners or partners: uptime, updates, edits made, search performance and AI mentions.

Process

How it works

Website Care starts when your site goes live and runs quietly in the background, with a one-page report each month.

Security & data residency

Where your data goes, and who can see it

Your website is your business's front door, so Website Care treats it like any other business system. Every account that can change the site uses multi-factor authentication, and only people you approve can make changes.

Where the site is hosted
Pages and form submissions are stored in fully GDPR-compliant data centres. Our security and data residency page explains how we protect them.
Headers checked every month
HTTPS, HSTS and headers such as Content-Security-Policy are checked monthly and after every change.
Account security
Multi-factor authentication on CMS, hosting, DNS and registrar accounts, with access removed when someone leaves your team.
If something goes wrong
We are alerted when the site goes down and respond within the time your agreement sets for your level.
Privacy
We record what personal information the site collects, where it is stored and who can see it, so your privacy policy stays accurate.

Pricing

Pricing guidance

Pricing model: Tiers

Monthly subscription at set levels. We recommend a level after the free discovery call and confirm the price in writing. Levels differ in how much editing time and AI-visibility monitoring each month includes. Larger changes, such as new page templates, are quoted separately.

Illustrative example

Example: an allied health clinic six months after launch

Talk through a similar build

Illustrative scenario: a physiotherapy clinic adds a new practitioner and starts offering hydrotherapy. The practice manager emails a short brief; the profile and a new treatment page are written, marked up with structured data and published within the edit allowance. The next monthly report shows which agreed customer questions name the clinic in ChatGPT and Google AI Mode, and which competitors appear instead.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How much does a website care plan cost?

Website Care is a monthly subscription with set levels, and we confirm the price in writing after the free discovery call. Levels differ in how much editing time and AI-visibility monitoring each month includes. Hosting, security, updates and monitoring are part of the plan, so there is no separate hosting bill to manage. Larger changes, such as new page templates, are quoted before work starts.

Where is our website hosted?

Website Care sites, including the enquiries submitted through your forms, are stored in fully GDPR-compliant data centres, so you can answer the question for clients, insurers or your own leadership team with confidence. Access is limited to the people who need it, and our security and data residency page explains who can access the site and its data.

What does AI-visibility monitoring involve?

Each month we ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Mode an agreed set of questions your customers might ask, and record whether your business is named or cited and which competitors are. We also check that search and AI crawlers can still reach the site, because some CDNs, such as Cloudflare, now block AI crawlers by default on new sites. AI answers vary between runs, so we report trends, not single results.

Will Website Care get us into ChatGPT answers?

No one can promise that. AI assistants choose their own sources, and their answers change between runs. Website Care keeps the conditions right: crawlers allowed, pages fast and current, structured data accurate, and content that answers the questions customers ask. Our guide to getting recommended by ChatGPT and Google explains what helps and what does not.

What counts as a small edit?

A small edit changes existing content: updating text, swapping an image, adding a staff profile, publishing an article you have written or adjusting a page's FAQs. New page templates, new features and integrations are scoped and quoted separately. Your level includes a monthly edit allowance, and anything beyond it is quoted before work starts.

Can you look after a website you didn't build?

Website Care is designed for sites Pylon Digital builds, because we know how they are made, hosted and secured. For a site built elsewhere, we review it first and tell you whether it can move onto Website Care as it is, or what would need to change. If your current site is slow, hard to edit or missing from search results, a rebuild through Websites is usually the cleaner path.

Secure by design. Set up correctly. Fully managed.
