Website maintenance is one of the most neglected aspects of digital presence management in Dubai. Business owners invest in building a great website, then let it run without updates for 12 months — by which point it is slow, insecure, and often broken on newer browser versions.
**What proper website maintenance includes:**
- Monthly security updates for CMS, plugins, and server software
- Weekly automated backups stored off-server
- Monthly performance monitoring and Core Web Vitals reporting
- SSL certificate renewal and monitoring
- Broken link detection and repair
- Google Search Console monitoring for crawl errors and manual penalties
- Content updates (text, images, pricing) as requested
- Annual redesign review to assess whether the site still meets current standards
**What website maintenance costs in Dubai:**
- Basic (security + backup monitoring): AED 500 – AED 800/month
- Standard (above + performance + GSC monitoring): AED 1,000 – AED 1,500/month
- Full-service (above + content updates + monthly reporting): AED 2,000 – AED 3,500/month
**Signs your website urgently needs maintenance attention:**
- PageSpeed score below 60
- Any error in Google Search Console with no resolution
- WordPress or plugin versions more than 2 major versions behind
- SSL certificate expired or within 30 days of expiry
Smart Screen Technology offers monthly maintenance packages for all client sites, with transparent reporting delivered every month.
