Why Do Businesses Keep a Developer on Retainer?

Because websites are never "done." Plugins need updating, things break at the worst moment, the checkout could convert better, and there’s always a feature you’ve been meaning to add. Hiring someone new for each task means re-explaining everything, every time — and hoping this freelancer is as good as the last one.

A monthly plan replaces that with one senior developer — me — who already knows your site, your business, and your history. You send tasks; they get done; you get a weekly summary in plain English. I’ve worked this way with US businesses for over 8 years, including nearly five years as AirportShuttles.com’s remote developer, and I co-founded two US companies (SpiderNow and OrganicRankings.com, LLC — Cary, NC). Currently lead engineer at a Seattle SaaS company.

What’s Covered

  • WordPress & WooCommerce: updates, fixes, custom themes and plugins, store improvements
  • Custom PHP & Laravel applications — built, extended, and maintained
  • Vue.js / Nuxt.js front-end development for modern web applications
  • Speed, security, backups, and hosting management — handled quietly in the background
  • Integrations: payment (Stripe, PayPal), email marketing, CRMs, shipping, booking systems
  • The small stuff: content changes, new pages, "can you just fix this" — no task too small

Honest Sizing

Most small businesses fit the Essential plan. Pick Growth if you have an active store or a real feature backlog. The Dedicated plan suits a product build or several busy sites. Not sure? Start small — upgrading later takes one email. If a one-time fix is genuinely all you need, my WordPress speed fix or a fixed-price project via WordPress development may fit better, and I’ll tell you so on the intro call.

Plans & What Makes This Work

Essential — $1,500/mo

Up to 40 hours/month (about 10 hrs/week). Site maintenance, updates, backups, security, content changes, and small features. Ideal for keeping one busy site healthy and improving.

Growth — $2,500/mo

Up to 80 hours/month (about 20 hrs/week). Everything in Essential plus ongoing development: new features, integrations, store improvements, landing pages. The most popular plan.

Dedicated — $4,500/mo

Up to 160 hours/month — effectively your own full-time senior developer at a fraction of a US hire. Product development, multiple sites, or a long-term build.

One Developer, Not a Ticket Queue

You work directly with me — the same senior engineer every month who knows your site's history. No account managers, no juniors, no re-explaining your business.

US Eastern Hours

I work US business hours and reply same-day. Co-founder of two US companies; 8+ years working with US clients including a 4-year engagement with AirportShuttles.com.

Cancel Anytime

Month to month, no long contracts. Circumstances change? Pause or cancel with 30 days notice. Most clients stay for years because the work speaks for itself.

How It Works

From first email to a website that just gets looked after.

1

Free Intro Call or Email

Tell me about your website and what you need handled. I'll recommend a plan honestly — including the smaller one if that's all you actually need.

2

Onboarding Week

I learn your site, take full backups, document how everything works, and fix any urgent issues found along the way. Included in your first month.

3

Your Task List

Send tasks by email or your preferred tool (Trello, Slack, anything). I prioritize, give plain-English estimates, and get to work. No request is too small.

4

A short weekly summary of what was done, what's next, and hours used. You always know exactly where your plan stands.

5

Monthly Review

End of each month: everything completed, site health status, and suggestions for what would help your business next — your call whether to act on them.

Questions Business Owners Ask

Anything web-related: WordPress updates and fixes, new pages and features, WooCommerce store changes, custom PHP and Laravel development, Vue.js applications, speed improvements, security hardening, hosting and email problems, integrations with tools like Stripe, Mailchimp, or your CRM — and the hundred small "can you just change this" tasks that come up when you run a business. If something is outside my expertise (like logo design), I'll say so directly and help you find the right person instead of doing a poor job of it. With 10+ years across the full stack, that honestly doesn't happen often.

With an agency you pay $100-200/hour, talk to an account manager, and your work is done by whichever junior developer is available. With a dedicated developer plan you pay a flat monthly rate, talk directly to the senior engineer doing the work, and that same person knows your site month after month. There's no markup, no telephone game, and no re-explaining your business every time. Agencies make sense for big one-time projects with many specialists; a dedicated developer makes sense for the ongoing reality of running a website — things break, needs change, and ideas come up every month.

Up to 25% of unused hours roll over to the next month, so a quiet month isn't wasted money. In practice most clients find a steady rhythm after the first month or two — there's almost always a backlog of improvements once you have someone to actually do them: that slow page, the form that doesn't quite work, the feature you've wanted for a year. If you consistently use far fewer hours than your plan, I'll tell you and suggest moving down a tier. I'd rather have a right-sized client for years than an oversized plan for three months.

I work US Eastern business hours — that's when my clients are awake, so that's when I am. I'm a remote engineer and co-founder of two US-registered companies based in Cary, North Carolina (SpiderNow and OrganicRankings.com, LLC), and I've worked with US businesses for over 8 years, including nearly 5 years with AirportShuttles.com in Durham, NC. You get same-day responses during your workday, video calls when you want them, and written summaries you can actually understand. Several of my client relationships have lasted 3+ years — references available on request.

Simple: a month-to-month agreement, paid at the start of each month by card, bank transfer, or Wise. No setup fees, no long-term contract, and you can cancel with 30 days notice. You'll get a proper invoice every month for your bookkeeping. I can sign an NDA and a contractor agreement — most US clients use a standard independent contractor arrangement, and I'm set up for that with US clients including tax documentation. If your company prefers working through a platform like Upwork for the paperwork, that works too.

Everything is yours and always was: the code, the content, the hosting accounts, the documentation. I work in your accounts rather than moving your site into mine, specifically so you're never locked in. If you cancel, your last month includes a proper handover — documentation of everything I've built, a list of anything in progress, and notes the next developer will thank you for. No hostage-taking, no surprise fees. The goal is that you stay because the work is good, not because leaving is painful.
