Website Maintenance FAQ's
What’s included in a website support package?
Our website support packages are designed to keep your website running at its optimal level all the time. To do this Oxygen Elements keeps your website’s software such as plugins and PHP’s up to date, provide you with priority support should your website break, update content and images to keep your website as relevant and engaging as possible. We will also send you website reports each month detailing what we have carried out on your website and update you on your website’s performance and speed.
What happens if I don’t have a website support package to maintain my website?
Without a website maintenance package, over time you will begin to run into different issued across your website (sometimes multiple at once). This comes naturally with age when the website isn’t kept up to date regularly.
These fixes can quickly become time consuming and costly repairs which can really effect your business. From as little as £2.10 per day, you can avoid all of these issues entirely. Oxygen Elements website maintenance packages slow down the aging process of your website and ensure your website always stays functional and making your business money.
Is hosting included in a website maintenance package?
No, hosting isn’t included in Oxygen Elements’ website maintenance packages. Although it is strongly advised that where your website is supported, you also host your website with them as well. This is to minimise any downtime delays which would arise if your website breaks and is inaccessible at any point.
Here at Oxygen Elements we offer our own hosting services so your website can remain secure and working at all times. Get in touch to discuss transferring your website’s hosting over to us with your website support contract.
How often are maintenance checks carried out?
Major updates to software is carried out monthly. This is to give time to software developers for plugins on your website to test that new updates are 100% compatible with your website. Fixes and updates are done when raised with us where you get priority over projects to ensure the quickest turnaround.
You will receive a report in your email detailing what has been updated on your website, your website loading speeds and any updates on security.
What are plugins, and why do they need managing?
Plugins give your website functionality. They are software packages that we put on your website to expand the possibilities of your website such as making elements move, include links or previews to your social media pages, or allow payments to be processed on your website. Keeping plugins updated and using the best ones for your websites needs keep your website running smoothly and avoid any potential security breaches linked to old, buggy, and unsecure plugins.
Why do I need website maintenance if my website was built recently?
It’s a good feeling to have a brand-new website with all of the latest features, it’s a good feeling knowing your website is better than competitors. By signing up for a website maintenance contract to begin when your website goes or has recently gone live, you prolong your website’s shelf life and the new brand-new feeling lasts significantly longer as your website always stays up to date.
Will website maintenance improve my page loading speed?
Yes! Having a website maintenance contract will maintain your website’s loading speed if it is already quick and improve your speed if it is slow right now. Websites which load within 2 seconds have a considerably higher click through and conversion rate compared to those that don’t, so that is how quick we aim to make all of the websites Oxygen Elements have a website support contract with.

Yes, Oxygen Elements offers 2 tiers of website support. Our core package includes:
- Plugin and coding updates
- Security checks
- Back-end cleanup and optimisation
