DorksCare – Website Maintenance and Support Services
Keep Your Website Updated, Secure and Running Smoothly
Your website should support your business, not become another operational headache.
DorksCare is Webdorks’ website maintenance and support service for businesses that need ongoing website updates, routine checks, technical support and a clearer process when issues happen.
Whether your website was built by Webdorks or taken over from another vendor, we can help keep it properly maintained.
Our website maintenance services are structured around two main factors:
The level of support required:
Standard or Premium / Proactive
The website setup:
Built by Webdorks or Taken over from another vendor
Choose the Right Website Maintenance Plan
Not every business requires the same level of website support. Some websites mainly need routine checks, occasional content updates and minor troubleshooting. Other websites are more business-critical and require uptime monitoring, faster escalation and clearer support channels for urgent matters.

It is best suited for websites that require:
- Minor content updates
- Text, image, video and link updates

- Basic performance checks
- Minor troubleshooting during business hours
Standard Maintenance is primarily request-based and routine-check based.
Premium / Proactive Website Maintenance
Premium / Proactive Maintenance is suitable for businesses that want a more active support arrangement.
It is best suited for websites that are more business-critical and require:
- Active uptime monitoring
- Alerts routed to our support team

Premium Support Coverage
Priority Support Hours
For urgent and critical website matters, our target response time is within 1–2 hours from Monday to Sunday, including public holidays, between 9:00 AM and 11:59 PM.
Issues raised between 12:00 AM and 8:59 AM will be handled on a best-effort basis unless a separate support arrangement is agreed in writing.
Our standard business hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
Any remedial work carried out outside standard business hours, including nights, weekends and public holidays, will be deducted at 2x the usual maintenance credit rate.
The response target refers to the initial response, assessment and commencement of investigation. It is not a guaranteed resolution time.
The actual resolution timeline will depend on the issue, hosting access, third-party dependencies, plugin vendors, infrastructure limitations and whether additional remediation work is required.
Uptime Monitoring
For Premium / Proactive Maintenance clients, we will set up uptime monitoring to check whether the website is down or inaccessible.
If an issue is detected, an alert will be routed to our support team for review.
For urgent or critical matters, our team will assess the issue and carry out reasonable investigation or stabilisation steps based on the agreed arrangement and available maintenance credits.
Uptime monitoring helps identify website accessibility issues earlier. However, it does not guarantee that downtime, security incidents or third-party issues can always be prevented or resolved immediately.
Dedicated Urgent Support Channel
Premium / Proactive Maintenance clients will have access to a dedicated WhatsApp hotline for urgent and critical website matters.
Examples include:
- Website downtime
- Website inaccessible
- Critical website errors
- Major frontend issues affecting business operations
- Important forms not working
- Payment checkout issues
- Key customer-facing functions not working
General content updates and non-urgent requests should continue to be raised through the usual email support channel.

Website Maintenance for Takeover Websites

Yes. We support takeover and non-Webdorks websites, subject to an initial technical review.

Hosting limitations
Theme conflicts
Plugin conflicts
Outdated backend structures
Expired plugin licences
Poor documentation
Security issues
Performance issues
Changes made by multiple vendors or users
For this reason, maintenance rates for takeover or non-Webdorks websites are higher.
A one-time takeover review or takeover fee may also apply before ongoing maintenance begins.
