What is Custom website maintenance?

Custom website maintenance is the ongoing care a custom-coded website needs to stay secure, fast and online: hosting, infrastructure, dependency and third-party updates, monitoring and backups. Mint Media's plans for custom, Next.js and headless websites start at $600 per month and include managed hosting, infrastructure maintenance, third-party updates, uptime monitoring, security scanning with a CDN, daily backups and 3 to 7 hours of senior developer time.

What's included

What every Custom website plan includes

Hosting and infrastructure

Managed hosting, deploy pipelines, SSL, domains and a CDN, set up and kept healthy by the team that runs them.

Dependencies kept current

Framework, library and third-party updates applied and tested, with security patches handled as soon as they are released.

Monitoring and backups

Uptime alerts, security scanning and daily backups, so issues are caught early and any change can be rolled back.

Common questions

Custom website maintenance, answered

Who can maintain and host my custom Next.js website?

Mint Media hosts and maintains custom, Next.js and headless websites on fixed monthly plans. We run the hosting and deploy pipeline, keep dependencies and integrations current, monitor uptime and security, and use the included developer hours for changes and fixes.

My developer left. Who can take over our custom-built website?

We take over custom sites regularly. Onboarding starts with an audit of the code, hosting and integrations, then we move the site onto infrastructure we manage and document how everything works, so you are never dependent on one person again.

How much does it cost to maintain a Next.js or headless website?

Most agencies quote between $500 and $3,000 per month, often with hosting billed on top. Mint Media's plans for custom websites are $600, $900 and $1,200 per month for 3, 5 and 7 developer hours, with managed hosting included.

How often do dependencies need updating on a Next.js site?

Security patches should go out as soon as they are released, and framework and library updates should be applied at least monthly so the site never falls far behind. On our plans this happens automatically, tested before it reaches production.
