Website Care Plans

Keep Your Website Running Smoothly, Month After Month

Your website is the heart of your online presence, and it needs regular care to stay secure, fast, and up-to-date. At Luminite Design, we offer website care plans to keep your site performing at its best, so you can focus on running your business.

Proactive Care for a Strong Digital Presence

Websites aren’t ‘set it and forget it’ – they need regular updates, security checks, and performance tweaks to keep running smoothly. With our website care plans, we take a proactive approach, making sure your site is always up to date, protected, and performing at its best. From fixing issues before they become problems to adding fresh content and features, we’re here to make sure your website always shines.

How Renewal Works

How Renewal Works

To keep your website live, secure, and performing at its best, there are a few essential running costs. These are now clearly itemised on your monthly invoice, so you’ll always know exactly what you’re paying for – no hidden extras.

What’s Included in Your Monthly Invoice

Depending on your setup, your invoice may include:

  • Domain Registration – Your website’s unique address (e.g. yourdomain.co.uk). Domains are registered annually but billed monthly in advance (pro rata).

  • Website Hosting – UK-based cloud hosting that ensures your website is fast, secure, and always online.

  • Email Server Space – If you use domain-based email (e.g. [email protected]), this is included in your hosting allocation.

  • Security & Monitoring – Protection from malware, hacks, and downtime with built-in monitoring and firewall protection.

  • Storage & Server Space – As your site grows (images, content, emails), more space may be required. Extra server space can be added from £5/month.

  • Plugins & Themes – Premium tools and software that add features to your site (e.g. SEO, speed, galleries). These have annual licence costs, but I spread the cost for you monthly.

  • Website Care Plan – Your support package covering updates, monitoring, security patches, technical fixes and small content changes.

These are essential third-party or service-based costs, spread monthly to help you manage your budget with no large renewal bills.

Email Storage & Server Space

  • If you use domain-based email, your mailbox shares space with your website hosting.

  • Storing too many emails or large attachments can slow down performance.

  • You can either clear old emails or upgrade your storage for a small monthly fee.

  • If you use Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, your email is stored separately and does not affect your website space.

Monthly Renewal Policy

All services are now billed monthly only.
There is no longer an annual renewal option.

  • Monthly billing keeps things simple and spread out – no big yearly costs.

  • Your services must be kept up to date to avoid downtime, email loss or plugin expiry.

  • You’ll receive regular invoices with a full breakdown of all services.

If anything changes in your plan or costs, I’ll always contact you personally and give you plenty of notice. My goal is simple: to keep your site running brilliantly while giving you flexibility and transparency.

Domain Name Registration

Your domain name is your website’s unique address – like www.yourbusiness.co.uk – and every site needs one. I handle domain registration and renewals for you, with prices starting from £2/month for .co.uk, £3/month for .com, and £6/month for other extensions.

Domains are billed monthly in advance on a pro rata basis, as they’re registered and renewed annually. You’ll always retain full ownership of your domain, and I make sure it’s managed securely and renewed on time – so you don’t have to worry.

Why Plugins & Software May Cost Extra

To give you the best possible website experience, I sometimes use premium plugins and software that add extra functionality – like speed optimisation tools, security features, booking systems, or SEO support. These are often third-party tools with annual or monthly licence fees. I’ll always be upfront about any additional costs, and I only ever recommend tools that genuinely benefit your website. Think of them like apps for your phone – some are free, but the really powerful ones need a small subscription to keep things running smoothly.
