Maintenance Companies

If, after considering all the options, you find that it is not feasible for your organization to maintain your Web site properly, you may consider contracting another company to do the maintenance. Most of the Web design firms provide maintenance for the sites they have built. They do so for a monthly fee based on the number of pages or the number of hours they spend working on your Web site. Rates vary among different companies from as low as $7.50 per month up to around $75 per month.

There are also companies that are dedicated exclusively to maintaining Web sites. So even if your Web site was designed in-house, you can contract a private company to do the maintenance for you. The following companies can provide maintenance services:
