You have a website. You just don't have time to keep it current. Send me what needs changing, whether it's new hours, fresh photos, or a whole new page, and I'll take care of it. You don't need to learn WordPress or hire an agency to get it done.
Not sure what needs changing? With 10+ years in digital marketing, I can help you figure out what to update first.

Not sure what to update? I can help you decide.
You don't need a finished list to get started. Many business owners know their website needs work but aren't sure where to begin.
I can review your site and suggest what to update first, such as information that's out of date, pages that don't answer the questions customers ask, services that aren't mentioned, or wording that doesn't sound like you. My marketing and SEO background means the suggestions focus on what helps customers choose you and helps search engines understand what you do.
You decide what gets done, and I take care of the rest.
Why it matters
Your website should keep up with your business
Businesses change all the time. Websites often don't. When your site falls behind, customers notice:
- Hours or prices that aren't right anymore
- A new service nobody knows you offer
- Photos that don't look like your business today
- Common questions with no answer on the page
Accurate, well-organized content helps customers decide to reach out. It also gives search engines a clearer picture of what you do and where you do it. Updates alone won't guarantee better rankings, but outdated or missing information works against you.

Platforms
Platforms I work with
- WordPress
- Squarespace
- Wix
- GoDaddy Website Builder
- Shopify (basic content edits)
What I can do depends on how your site is set up and what access is available. If something is better handled by a developer, I'll tell you up front.
Not sure what your website is built on? That's okay. I can help you figure it out.
The process
How it works
01
Tell me what needs changing
Send a list, a few screenshots, or a quick note. It doesn't need to be organized.
02
I review your site and send a quote
You'll know what's involved and what it costs before any work starts.
03
I make the updates
Once you approve and access is set up, I make the changes and let you know when they're live.
You work with me from start to finish.
Pricing
What does it cost to have someone update your website?
Pricing depends on the scope of the changes you need. You'll get a quote before any work begins.
Larger Projects
Custom Quote
New pages, written copy, or a bigger content refresh get their own quote up front.
Need ongoing help keeping your website current? Ongoing content support is available by request. See all services and pricing.
Questions, answered
Website update FAQs
How much does it cost to have someone update my website?
Website updates start at $75, and the final price depends on the scope of the changes. Larger projects, like several new pages or a content refresh, get a custom quote. Either way, you'll know the cost before any work starts.
Can I hire someone to make changes to my existing website?
Yes, that's exactly what this service is for. You keep your current website, and I make the changes you need, whether it's one small fix or a longer list.
Do I have to give you my website password?
Usually not. Most platforms, including WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, and Shopify, let you add me as a separate user or editor, which is the safer option. I'll walk you through it, and you can remove my access at any time.
What website platforms do you work with?
I work with WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, GoDaddy Website Builder, and Shopify for basic content edits. If your site is built on something else, send me the link and I'll let you know if I can help.
How quickly can you make website updates?
It depends on the request and my schedule at the time. I'll include a timeline with your quote, so you know what to expect before anything starts.
Can you add a new page to my website?
Yes. I can add service pages, landing pages, FAQ pages, and more, set up to match the look of your existing site. If you need help with what the page should say, I can write it, including service descriptions, FAQs, and other website copy.
Do you offer one-time updates or monthly website maintenance?
Most work is done as one-time updates, whenever you need them. If you'd like ongoing help keeping your site current, that's available by request. Either way, the focus is your content, not technical maintenance like plugin updates or backups.
What's the difference between website updates and a website redesign?
Updates improve the website you already have: new content, better wording, fresh photos, and small layout changes. A redesign rebuilds the site's look and structure from scratch, which isn't part of this service. If your project needs a full redesign, I can connect you with a trusted web design partner.
How often should I update my website?
Any time something about your business changes, like your hours, services, prices, or team. Beyond that, a quick review every few months helps you catch outdated information before customers do. If you're not sure what's out of date, I can take a look and let you know.
Do you handle website security, backups, and plugin updates?
No. This service covers your website's content. Security monitoring, backups, plugin and software updates, and hosting are best handled by your hosting company or a web developer, and I'm happy to point you in the right direction.
