A website has a number of phases: planning, design, development, and ongoing maintenance. While the design and development phase may take 6 months, the website itself may be online for over five years.

Many web development companies concentrate only on the design and development process. Once the site is delivered, it is commonly left up to the website owner to update the site themselves.

Many small improvements are left undone since the business owner has neither the time or expertise to put them into place. As a result the website becomes gradually less effective over the years and doesn't work as hard for the business as it should.

Managed Content Webs provides a ongoing service which works to continually increase the effectiveness of a website over its entire lifetime. The service includes:

• Refinements: continuing advice, suggestions and improvements to make your website more effective.
• At any you can get in touch and ask about anything to do with your website. We are happy to do some research on your behalf and make recommendations as part of our service.
• Since we spend our time working on the web there are often new opportunities and features that we become aware of. Occasionally we will inform you about an inititive that we believe could improve your website effectiveness.
• We continually publish articles on our website dealing with various issues, which are resources accessible by you (and others).
  
• Maintain: Sites that are built and forgotten can often degrade as new browsers become popular and new versions of existing browsers are released. Such display issues can make a website impossible to use and potentially damage the perception of the quality of a business. As part of our ongoing service, Managed Content Webs makes sure that sites work and display properly in all the current popular modern browsers.  (See an example of a browser error below.)
