Premium plan
Ongoing web development without agency rates
New features, new pages, active development work. For businesses that need more than maintenance.
What is included
- Everything in Maintained
- Active feature development
- New pages and sections
- Multi-language or multi-market support
- SEO and performance work
- Direct line, same-day response
Retainer plans: 3-month minimum, then rolling monthly. Site builds quoted per project.
Why switch
Agencies quote for everything. A new page is a project. A new section is a scoping call. By the time you have signed off the brief, the work has been deprioritised twice and the account manager has changed.
The Premium plan is for businesses that want ongoing development work without the overhead. I work directly with you, build what is agreed, and do not treat every task as a billable event to be quoted and approved.

Common questions
What kind of development work is included?
New pages, new sections, design updates, performance improvements, multi-language support, SEO work, and new features. The scope is agreed monthly - no open-ended sprints, no runaway costs.
Is this suitable for e-commerce sites?
For simple product catalogues and enquiry-driven sites, yes. For complex transactional e-commerce with inventory management, it depends on the platform - worth a conversation.
How is this different from hiring a freelancer?
A freelancer typically works project by project. The Premium plan is a retained relationship - I know your site, your business, and your goals. Work is ongoing, not scoped per job.
Can I drop to Maintained if my needs change?
Yes. If a development push completes and you just need maintenance for a few months, you can drop down. No penalty.
Ready to switch?
One conversation. No forms, no discovery calls. I will give you a straight answer on whether this is the right fit and what migration looks like.
