The Fine Print (Q&A)
Each plan has features listed below it! Click “View More” for additional information.*The Level Two plan also includes everything from the Level One plan!
Our response times are guaranteed within business hours (M-F) though we do monitor high-priority needs outside of business times including weekends.
Content Implementation: This involves adding new content. If the content is meant to display in a way that isn’t possible with the current theme, additional coding is required (implementation).
Content Revision: This involves revising existing content such as pages, posts, events, staff directories and so forth. These “revisions” will not affect your sites theme.
Please Note: Content Implementation differs from Content Revision. A New Site Feature/Design/Major Revision will require “Content Implementation” purchasable in two-hour block increments. If content implementation exceeds four hours, an estimate is required and your work will be handled as a project.
Each support plan includes “Content Revision”, however, please make note that these do not stack with one another i.e. If you have the Level Two plan you will only receive the 2 hours of content revision time listed under that plan (instead of 2 hours from Level Two + 1 hour from Level One). The support for “Content Revision” per plan is separate and not a stacked nor combined total.
We utilize one account that houses all of the domains we manage and, therefore, cannot provide access to you or any third parties. We can, however, make DNS changes on your behalf and work with any third party you approve of to add, remove, or modify DNS records for your domain.
We do not provide access via SFTP since we manage the code of your site using version control through GitHub. Version control includes version history, change logs, and more to be sure your site is safely updated across production, staging, and development environments.
Alternatively, we can upload files for you when needed.*You may request access for specific use cases.
