What clients say about working with us

“Digital Bird was excellent to work with. After countless attempts with speaking with agencies and other web design contractors, we finally found Jonathan and the team, and what a blessing that was. The project was handled end to end, with clear communication the entire time. We have now engaged Jonathan and the team for on-going website management and work due to how well things turned out. If you are on the fence about which direction to go, I highly recommend just taking a call with Jonathan and the team and seeing what you can achieve together.”

“We have used Jonathan for a number of years to develop and maintain our rather complicated Online Portal and website. Jonathan is always extremely responsive to requests and proactive in ensuring our online presence is safe, presents well and is functional to our customers needs. We would definitely recommend Jonathan for your custom web development needs.”

Nathan Smith East Coast Bullbars
Marketing Manager, East Coast Bullbars

“We’ve been working with Jonathan Bird for our website maintenance, and he has been nothing short of exceptional. Jonathan consistently goes above and beyond, responding quickly whenever we need help and resolving issues with impressive turnaround time. His communication is clear and thorough — he always explains what the problem was, how he fixed it, and provides helpful recommendations for long-term solutions. It’s rare to find someone this reliable and proactive. Highly recommend!”

Marketing Manager, Rapidline (FurnX Commercial Furniture)

“Digital Bird has had a huge influence on our business providing many solutions besides just a fantastic reliable website. Jonathan is great to work with and has a solution to every challenge. Jonathan also has the ability to “dumb it down” and provide timely advice and assistance if something goes astray. With Jonathan we have in excess of 99% uptime on all three websites.”

Director, Impact Office Supplies

“What stands out most is that Jonathan & the team do not just “fix the ticket”. They investigate properly, explain the cause in plain language, and look for the right long-term solution rather than quick patches. They have helped us move away from fragile legacy processes, improve automated testing, reduce errors, improve email reliability, address performance bottlenecks, and make the platform easier to maintain into the future.”

1. Server service updates, LTS upgrades, and SSL certificate management require server-level access. All are included when we host your site. If you host elsewhere, we confirm what your provider allows during onboarding, before you commit.
2. Improvement hours are set to your site's complexity and agreed in writing before your first month, so you know exactly what's included. You can add hours at any time.
3. Routine database optimisation and cleanup is included. Large-scale migrations or restructuring are scoped and quoted separately, so nothing lands on your invoice as a surprise.
4. After-hours incident response covers critical issues outside business hours: site down, checkout broken, security incident. We agree what counts as critical during onboarding, so there's no debate at 8pm.

Stability plan pricing is for WordPress websites. Laravel, Statamic, and custom application maintenance is available, so get in touch for a tailored quote. Additional support and development hours can be purchased across all plans.

FAQ

Website Maintenance FAQs

Common questions our team is asked about website maintenance packages.
Updates to your CMS, plugins and server software, security scanning, backups, uptime monitoring and fixing problems before they affect visitors. Our website maintenance guide covers what is involved, what it should cost and what to look for in a provider.
Our website maintenance packages start from $540/month + GST for the Stability plan, which covers security updates, uptime monitoring, backups, malware scanning, and server monitoring. The Care plan ($4,950/month + GST) adds priority support, bug fixes, site improvements, monthly sprint planning, and a weekly delivery cadence. The Enterprise plan ($9,900/month + GST) includes ongoing development, quarterly business reviews, roadmap governance, custom integrations, and ERP/CRM support. Stability plan pricing is for WordPress websites - Laravel, Statamic, and custom application maintenance is available with tailored pricing. Additional support and development hours can be purchased across all plans.
The Stability plan covers CMS and plugin updates, uptime monitoring with real-time alerts, security scanning and malware removal, server health monitoring, PHP/Nginx/MySQL updates, daily backups, and direct developer email support. The Care plan adds priority support, bug fixes, site improvements, a monthly sprint planning cadence, Google Search Console monitoring, a staging environment, and a monthly maintenance report. The Enterprise plan includes everything in Care plus ongoing development, WIP meetings, quarterly business reviews, custom integrations, and emergency after-hours incident response.
Plan terms vary depending on the level of service. Some plans run on a rolling basis, while higher-tier plans with dedicated capacity may include an annual commitment. Either way, terms are transparent and discussed upfront before you sign anything. Most of our clients stay for years because they see the value in the work, not because they feel locked in.
We provide maintenance for WordPress, Laravel, Statamic, Shopify, and custom web applications. We also manage AWS infrastructure, server administration (Nginx, MySQL, Redis, PHP), and third-party integrations like Algolia, Stripe, and Google Merchant Centre. If your business runs on multiple platforms, we can create a bespoke retainer that covers everything.
Response times depend on your plan. Stability plan clients receive email support. Care plan clients get priority support with a dedicated Slack or Teams channel. Enterprise plan clients have emergency after-hours support and the strongest delivery rhythm. All plans include uptime monitoring with real-time alerts, so we are often aware of issues before you are.
Once you sign up, we perform a comprehensive audit of your website and server environment. This includes reviewing your current security posture, checking for outdated software, analysing performance, and setting up monitoring tools. We then create a prioritised action plan to address any immediate risks or issues. The full onboarding process typically takes one to two weeks, and you'll receive a detailed report of our findings and the steps we've taken.
Yes. The Care plan includes priority bug fixes, site improvements, and a weekly delivery cadence with monthly sprint planning. The Enterprise plan includes ongoing development, custom integrations, backend development, and advanced UX/UI work at scale - all managed through a Trello board with quarterly business reviews to keep priorities aligned.
Most agencies use automated tools to bulk-update plugins across dozens of client sites with minimal oversight. Our approach is fundamentally different. We manually review every update, check changelogs for breaking changes, test updates on a staging environment where available, and verify everything works correctly after deployment. We also review server and application logs for errors that automated tools simply cannot detect - things like broken forms, failed payment integrations, or slow database queries that silently cost you customers.
The Care and Enterprise plans include a monthly maintenance report covering what updates were performed, any security issues identified and resolved, uptime statistics, and recommendations for improvements. Enterprise clients receive additional reporting during their quarterly business review sessions. The Stability plan is focused on delivering core updates and security, so does not include monthly reporting.
Absolutely. We regularly take over maintenance from other agencies and developers. The transition process is smooth - We'll request access to your hosting, domain registrar, and any relevant third-party services, then perform a full audit of your current setup. We document everything and create a maintenance baseline so nothing falls through the cracks. There's no downtime involved in the switchover. If it's an AI-built app that needs stabilising first, start with Vibe Code Rescue.
