Your site stays in order
For small businesses with no time to look after their website. A site that isn't looked after falls behind, often without you noticing. We handle updates, backups, security and monitoring, and help your email land in the inbox rather than spam.

Sound familiar?
A website is never quite finished. What isn't looked after goes wrong sooner or later, usually at an awkward moment.
- Updates pile up
There are notices in the admin, but you don't know whether updating is safe. So you wait, and the site falls behind.
- You hear it from a customer
Your site was down or the certificate had expired, and a customer told you.
- No idea whether there's a backup
If something goes wrong, it's unclear whether there's anything to fall back on.
- Email lands in spam
Quotes and invoices don't arrive, or someone sends email in your name.
What does doing nothing cost? Usually nothing, until it goes wrong. Then repairs take time, and a customer sees a site that doesn't work.
What you get from us
This is what we take care of every month, so your site stays safe and available to your customers and you don't have to think about it.
- Updates and security
Software and extensions updated, security settings checked.
- Backups
Regular copies of your site, so there's always something to fall back on.
- Monitoring
If your site goes down or the certificate expires, we see it and fix it. You hear it from us, not a customer.
- Email that arrives
With email security, quotes and invoices land in the inbox more often instead of spam. With Plus we check every month that it still holds.
Every month your site is updated and monitored. With Plus you get a short monthly report, so you know how your site is doing.
Curious how your site is doing? You'll know in 15 minutes.

Who helps you
ModernCrafts is the business of Sem Lont from Wassenaar, the Netherlands. You don't talk to an account manager but to the person who looks after your site. That saves explaining, misunderstandings and waiting: you call, email or book a call and hear back from the maker.
Frequently asked questions
My site works fine, doesn't it?
On the outside, often yes. Outdated software, an expiring certificate or a missing backup only shows when something goes wrong. Care is there to stay ahead of that moment.
How long am I tied to ongoing care?
The first year is fixed. After that you can cancel monthly, with one month's notice.
Can't I keep it up myself?
You can, if you have the time and know what you're doing: applying updates safely, checking backups and noticing when the site goes down. If you'd rather spend that time on your craft, we take it over.
Can I get care if you didn't build my site?
Often, yes. We first look at how the site is built. If there's catching up to do, you hear the cost first.
What exactly is email security?
Three settings in your domain that show email really comes from you. Your email arrives more often and it becomes much harder to send email in your name.
Do I have to take care?
No. Care is optional. Without it you get everything at delivery to handle it yourself or with someone else.
What counts as changes in Plus?
Small edits such as copy, a photo or opening hours. Bigger jobs are discussed separately, priced up front.
