Websites and maintenance: fast, secure and easy to keep alive

A high-performing website is designed from the start and maintained afterwards. I design prototypes and static websites connected to your content management system, using modern, lightweight technologies. I then take care of updates, backups and small improvements, so your teams can focus on their content.

Who is it for?

When to move to a static website or a prototype

This service is useful when:

  • You want to validate an application or service idea before investing in full development.
  • Your website is slow, heavy or hard to evolve.
  • Your contributors need to publish easily, without risking breaking the layout.
  • Nobody regularly takes care of your website's updates, backups and security.

You are…

  • Freelancer or SME

    A fast, secure website that you update yourself, without having to watch over the technical side.

  • Large company

    Prototypes to test an idea with your users and win support internally, before launching large-scale development.

  • Institution

    Lightweight, accessible and stable websites, fed by many contributors without loss of quality.

What?

Prototypes, static websites and web maintenance

I favour four technologies, chosen for their reliability, lightness and wide adoption.

  • Laravel

    Prototypes (POC) and applications that require business logic, a database or an admin area.

  • Astro

    Ultra-fast static websites, connected to your content management system (CMS).

  • React

    Interactive interfaces: dashboards, advanced forms, dynamic components.

  • Tailwind CSS

    Consistent, lightweight styling, directly linked to your design system's tokens.

A static website connected to your CMS

Your teams keep writing in a familiar tool. The website is generated in advance as lightweight pages: pages that load much faster, greater security and a website that is simpler to maintain.

A prototype (POC)

A working, focused version of your idea, concrete enough to be tested with real users and presented to your decision-makers, before committing to full development.

Maintaining: maintenance and hosting

  • Updates of the CMS, plugins and dependencies, tested before being applied.
  • Backups made regularly, stored off the server, with a periodic restore test.
  • Security: monitoring, HTTPS certificates, access management.
  • Uptime monitoring, with intervention in the event of an incident.
  • Performance checks and page weight control.
  • Automated accessibility test every month.
  • Small improvements to content or layout, depending on the plan.
  • Hosting (optional), with the domain name and DNS configuration.
  • A monthly report: what was done, any incidents, my recommendations.

Why?

The benefits of a fast, well-maintained website

  • Much faster pages, appreciated by your audiences and by search engines alike.
  • A more secure website, because the published pages no longer depend directly on the CMS.
  • Independent contributors, who publish in a simple tool without touching the technical side.
  • Better-informed decisions: a prototype shows concretely what works before you invest.
  • Peace of mind: updates, backups and security are monitored every month.
  • A website that remains yours: access, source code and documentation are handed over to you.

In practice

How the support works

  1. Step 1: Discovery call

    Free, one hour: your objectives, your current website, your contributors.

  2. Step 2: Technical assessment

    For an existing website: versions, plugins, hosting, security, performance, accessibility.

  3. Step 3: Design

    Of the prototype or website, with regular review points.

  4. Step 4: Onboarding

    Your contributors are trained in publishing and receive a quick reference guide.

  5. Step 5: Monthly follow-up

    In the plan you choose.

Who takes part: the person responsible for the website, your contributors and, if necessary, your hosting provider or technical service providers, with whom I coordinate.

Over time

Maintenance and hosting

Three plans to keep your website secure and up to date, every month. For a website I did not build, support starts with a technical assessment.

  • Essential: updates, backups, security, monitoring and monthly report.
  • Evolution: in addition, a monthly volume of small improvements and a performance check.
  • Partner: in addition, a quarterly review of the website's development.

Hosting is available as an option.
