Keep it there - Keep your app running

Keeping a live app healthy is its own job, and the rules of your field do not stop applying the day it goes live. Security updates, up to 10 hours a month of changes to the app I deployed, and a regular look at your hosting bill. I already know how your app is put together, so none of it starts from scratch.

Keep your app running

Will Pickeral, William Belle LLC · support@williambelle.co

The deployment ends. The app does not.

Keeping a live app healthy is its own job. Security updates land whether or not anyone applies them, the rules of your field do not stop applying the day you launch, and the small changes you want are the ones that never get made because there is nobody to make them.

Quoted per client. Up to 10 hours a month of hands-on work, written into the agreement.


What You Get

  • Your live app kept secure and up to date. The updates that matter get applied, and I tell you which ones and why.
  • Up to 10 hours a month of changes and improvements to the app I deployed. Written into the agreement, so we both know what it covers.
  • A daily check on your app included, with the monthly report, at no extra charge.
  • A regular look at your hosting bill, so you are not paying for capacity you never use. That is a Cloud Cost Review every three months, included rather than billed on its own.

I already know how your app is put together, because I put it there. None of it starts from scratch, and none of the hours go on someone reading your code for the first time.

What Happens to the Hours

They are hours of my work, not a ticket allowance. A small change, a question answered, a setting adjusted, a look at something that seems off — all of it comes out of the same ten.

Anything larger than the hours left is quoted before it starts, at the rates on the change request process page. You see the price and decide. Nothing gets started on the assumption that you would have said yes.

Unused hours do not roll over. A quiet month is what you are paying for.

Who This Is For

An app I deployed. This is not a rescue service for somebody else's setup — I would be learning the app on your money, and the price would reflect that.

If your app is already live and I did not deploy it, start with a daily check on your app or a free review, and we can talk about the rest once I have seen it.

What It Costs

Contact for a quote. It depends on how much your app does, which rules apply to it, and how much change you expect. There is no public price because there is no standard month.

The smaller version, if the hours are more than you need, is a daily check on your app at $49/month on its own. Nothing is fixed under that one — I tell you what I found and what it would cost, and you decide.

Getting Started

Tell me what you need, and I'll come back with a quote and what it covers.

Twenty minutes, and no pitch.

I'll tell you what I'd fix first in what you've built, and why. No pitch.
