A plan based on your requirements
We review the technology, database, expected usage and current hosting before recommending a setup. Ownership, access, backup storage and responsibility for updates should be clear from the start. A backup is useful only when the recovery process is understood and tested.
What the work can include
- Hosting and deployment requirements review
- Domain and DNS configuration within the agreed scope
- HTTPS/SSL setup and configuration checks
- Backup and recovery planning
- Maintenance and monitoring responsibilities agreed in advance
How scope and cost are determined
Application requirements, storage, traffic, email needs and the level of ongoing support influence the proposed setup. Hosting-provider charges and development work should be separated clearly in the proposal.
Questions before you start
Can I keep ownership of my domain?
Domain ownership and account access should be agreed clearly. Clients should know where their domain is registered and how renewal is managed.
Does having backups mean recovery is automatic?
No. Recovery requires appropriate files, database copies and a tested restoration process. Frequency, retention and responsibility should be part of the plan.
