Maintenance Plans

We lead with design. Our team brings a strong background in design, branding, and business strategy. 

Many agencies take a task-based approach—collecting your information and simply putting it online—we act as true partners. We offer consultation, guidance, and strategic insight every step of the way.

Every decision is intentional, from page structure and navigation to color palettes, content flow, and calls to action. 

Our focus is on aligning your brand with your business goals, creating a website that makes an impact, drives conversions, and reflects your unique identity.

Absolutely! Once your site is live, we provide you access. We can create personalized training videos to walk you through how to make updates on your own. 1hr of training is included. If more is required, we can discuss costs.

Each package includes 1hr for free. All requests MUST come through the client portal in order for us to manage all client needs efficiently and fairly. 

Yes! We can set up auto pay plans for you at no extra expense. 

Our maintenance + hosting plan is a required  monthly subscription. Our system automatically bills every month.  

Most website projects are 50% upfront and 50% upon completion. If you’d like to pay in smaller installments, we’ll work with you to create a payment plan that fits your budget.

We’re based in Alaska and work with clients across the U.S. (and some international!). All of our services can be delivered remotely, and we’re fully set up to collaborate seamlessly across time zones.

We’re happy to meet in person or via Zoom—whatever works best for you.

For local clients, we love doing on-site visits. Experiencing your business firsthand and connecting with your team helps us better understand your brand, ensuring your messaging and visual presence align across every touchpoint.

Yes, web hosting is included with your monthly plan.

No, this plan is required. It covers the essential hosting and maintenance services needed to keep your website live, secure, and up to date.

Yes! This can be purchased as an add on service. 

A website is an online foundation for a business...but if ranking at the top of Google is a priority, it’s important to know that a website alone isn’t enough.

Ongoing SEO requires continuous management of your website’s technical setup, fresh content (like blog posts), and your Google Business Profile. It’s a separate service beyond the website build and is ideal for businesses looking to consistently show up in the top 1–3 results.

If strong local search rankings are part of your growth strategy, we’re happy to connect you with trusted partners or discuss a custom SEO support plan.

No problem. It is our policy not to own your domain; it's also not in your best interest for anyone to own your domain - except you. We really like ionos.com for your domain purchase. It's about $12/yr, free privacy and is easy to allow people to give access for website pointing.

Congratulations on the new business idea! Sounds like you need a brand! We can support you with a custom package. Let’s chat about your options. 

Hosting

We handle your website’s hosting—this is the space your site lives on the internet. Every website needs it, and we manage it for you as part of your plan.

Maintenance

Just like a car or a house, your website requires continuous upkeep and maintenance to ensure it runs smoothly, stays secure, and performs at its best.

Your monthly fee covers the essentials that keep your website secure, stable, and running smoothly behind the scenes:

Automatic Backups

Your website is backed up regularly, so if anything ever goes wrong, we can restore it quickly and minimize downtime.

Security Monitoring

We perform routine checks to keep your site protected from threats and vulnerabilities.

Form Compatibility Checks

We ensure that your contact and inquiry forms continue working correctly as platforms and browsers evolve.

Technology Maintenance

Just like a car or a home, websites experience natural wear and tear over time. Software updates, platform changes, and third-party integrations can all impact performance. We monitor these changes and address common issues proactively.

For more complex issues or advanced updates that require over 3 hours of support, we’ll reach out to discuss your options and any additional costs. This is more common for websites with custom features or third-party integrations.

You pay a one-time design/build fee plus an ongoing monthly fee for hosting, updates, and support. The monthly fee continues after your site launches to keep your website secure, updated, and performing well.

We can either bill hourly for extra time or upgrade you to a higher plan that includes more support hours.

If we provide images, we own them. If you provide images, you own them. Please note that all imagery that we provide as a part of our services are owned by Alpine Design & Consulting, LLC and cannot be used elsewhere for any other purpose. You cannot use our website content, including pictures, for printing on your banners or any other usage. 

No problem—we have a few options. We have agency subscription to high-quality stock imagery at Adobe Stock , which allows us to license professional photos for use on your website.

If you’d like broader usage rights (for things like print materials, social media, or other marketing), you also have the option to purchase images directly.

That said, we always recommend investing in your own professional photography when possible. Custom imagery helps your business stand out and builds stronger trust with your audience.

Determining an exact cost for a website can be a bit tricky, as it largely depends on the specific features and functionality you're after, as well as the project's size and complexity. That being said, we have provided packages based on common needs. Our websites typically ranges from $5,000 to $50,000.

A 1h task is something that can be done in under thirty minutes and includes things like adding a team member to your about page, posting a pre-written blog post, editing text on a page, or switching out an image on a page.

Advanced functionality and additional pages would need to be quoted separately. Beyone 1hr, we'll bill at $100 (20% discount from regular hrly rate)
