Onboarding reviews the existing site through authorised access: platform or CMS, hosting, code or theme, extensions, external connections and known issues. We identify the business and provider contacts needed to maintain it. An inherited problem or unsupported dependency may require a separate investigation before routine care is useful.
The agreement can cover selected software updates, ordinary content assistance, technical corrections and checks of important journeys. Requests need the affected address, intended change and approving owner. New functions, a broader redesign or a platform move have their own scope rather than being hidden inside an unlimited support promise.
Recovery arrangements, reporting and support expectations are part of the engagement. Establish what the available backup covers and who can use the agreed procedure. Choose representative public and editor checks, and explain what each result proves. Response hours, monitoring frequency and incident responsibilities must be agreed for the actual site; this page promises neither uninterrupted availability nor a repair deadline.
