Website Maintenance in Nepal: A Practical Checklist

A launched website still needs routine attention. A broken enquiry form, expired domain or failed checkout can affect business before anyone notices a design problem. Use this checklist to agree maintenance responsibilities with your team or software provider.

Check the journeys that produce enquiries

Start with the pages and actions customers actually use. Open the website on a phone, submit a test enquiry through an agreed test process and confirm who receives it. For an online store, verify the checkout in a sandbox or other approved test environment rather than creating an unintended real payment.

Check phone links, contact forms, confirmation screens and notification delivery.
Review navigation, missing images and important pages after content edits.
Record failures with the URL, time and steps needed to reproduce them.

Make backups recoverable

A successful backup notification is not proof that the website can be restored. Agree which files, database records and uploaded images are included, who can access the backups and how long copies are retained. Test restoration in an isolated environment and record what was recovered.

Identify the owner of domain registration, hosting and renewal reminders.
Store recovery instructions where authorised staff can find them.
Define an acceptable recovery time and how much recent data loss the business can tolerate.

Release updates with a rollback plan

Review application and dependency updates against the features your site uses. Test changes before production where possible, and agree how to reverse a failed release. Separate routine maintenance from new features so both parties understand what a support package includes.

Test login, forms and integrations after changes.
Keep access permissions current when staff or suppliers change.
Assign responsibility for investigating errors and unexpected downtime.

Keep search signals aligned with real content

When changing an important URL, map its replacement and update internal links. Check that live public pages remain accessible to crawlers and that deleted content returns an appropriate response. Update articles when their substance changes rather than changing dates alone.

Review Search Console indexing and query reports for important pages.
Keep sitemap URLs aligned with published, canonical pages.
Check prices, contacts and service availability against current business information.

Common questions

What should a website maintenance package include?

Ask for a written scope covering updates, backups, monitoring, recovery, support hours and response expectations. Clarify whether content edits, hosting and new features are included or quoted separately.

How often should a business website be checked?

Set the schedule around risk and usage. Important customer journeys should be checked after releases and relevant configuration changes; agree recurring backup, renewal and content reviews with the responsible team.
