Website upkeep
Site Keeper
Stands in for
The developer on a monthly maintenance plan and the ticket queue that comes with it.
What it does
Websites drift. A plugin breaks, a page slows down, an error starts showing up and nobody notices for weeks. The Site Keeper looks over each site on your list every weekday and works on what it finds, inside limits you set. Each week it handles the jobs developers tend to put off: reviewing packages, speeding up slow pages and clearing small requests.
Every change goes through git with a short report, so nothing lands on your site without a record. In Prepare Only mode it opens the change and waits for you. Later you can let it merge low-risk fixes, like a typo or a broken link, while bigger changes still come to you first.
Its routines
Each weekday
- Site health check Visits each site, checks key pages load, and notes anything broken.
- Error triage Reads new errors and logs, groups them, and drafts a fix for the clear ones.
- Small change queue Works through one or two small requests and prepares each as a git change.
Once a week
- Package review Checks for outdated or risky dependencies and prepares safe updates.
- Speed pass Finds the slowest pages and suggests or prepares improvements.
- Weekly change report Lists every change prepared or merged this week and why.
Once a month
- Backup and restore check Confirms backups exist and notes how a restore would work.
- Security and access review Reviews who has access and flags old keys, users or settings.
What it drafts for you
- Git branches or pull requests for each fix
- A daily note on site health and new errors
- A weekly report of every change and its reason
What it won’t do
It never…
- Push a change to your live site without your okay
- Delete files, data or user accounts
- Change hosting, billing or domain settings
Its first week
- Day 1: you give it read access to the repo and the list of sites to watch.
- Days 2 to 3: it runs health checks and opens its first small fixes for you to review.
- Days 4 to 5: you merge what looks right and tell it what to leave alone.
- End of week: you decide if typo and link fixes can move to Supervised.
Good for
- Small businesses with a site and no in-house developer
- Agencies looking after several client sites
- Founders running a web app on their own
