Website maintenance can be simple or complex or a combination of the two. Is there a way to tell before submitting your maintenance request whether the update is simple or a bit more complex and therefore cost more to get done? Sometimes yes and sometimes no. The web designer will need to evaluate the impact to the structure of the webpage before making a determination on whether the changes will impact the surrounding visual area on the page and whether a redesign will be required to accomodate the new text and/or image changes. A few phrases of text replacing old text is in most cases a simple revision which will require no structural changes. But, occasionally what appears to be simple due to the location of the text change where one word makes a difference within a tight rigid space can require a major overhaul of the affected area. This does not happen often but it can and does occur. If you are on a tight budget careful planning can avoid a costly update. Here are a few things you should remember before sending in that maintenance request.

Simple Website maintenance consists of the following:

• Content revisions - text additions and changes to an existing website
• Content image additions and/or removals to existing website pages without image preparation or modifications/improvements

Complex Website maintenance consists of:
