Does SVZ help with SEO and ongoing site maintenance after launch?

The best web design agencies like SVZ do not consider a project truly finished at launch; they often provide additional services like SEO optimization and maintenance to ensure the site’s long-term success.

Here’s what to expect from us:

• SEO (Search Engine Optimization): SVZ will implement on-page SEO during the build – things like proper HTML structure, Schema Mark-up, Google Rich Results Test, mobile-friendly design, fast loading times, and meta tags, alt text, internal linking, etc… which all affect your Google rankings. SVZ also offers advanced SEO services and consultation for extended ongoing growth post launch. For example, SVZ can conduct keyword research and guide your content strategy, or ensure the site is integrated with Google Analytics/Search Console advanced methods for goal and event tracking. SVZ has a dedicated SEO growth director who can continue working on the site post-launch leading - (content creation, link building, technical SEO tweaks, keyword research, back-linking, PR, etc). SEO needs to be a priority, that’s why SVZ bakes SEO best practices into the web design process by default – it’s much more effective than trying to retrofit SEO later. SVZ is particularly strong in this area; we view design, UX, and SEO as intertwined. In fact, one reason clients choose us is our track record in boosting organic traffic through design and content structure improvements.
• Maintenance & Support: After launch, websites require updates – whether it’s content changes, security updates, or adding brand new features. SVZ offers retainer maintenance plans (design, dev, or growth) or Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for ongoing support . This could be a monthly retainer where we allocate a few hours to update plugins, monitor site health, fix any bugs that arise, and even make minor design tweaks on request. Maintenance ensures your site stays secure and up-to-date (especially important if built on platforms like WordPress which release frequent updates). SVZ also often provides training so your team can handle small updates internally; but if you prefer not to touch the tech, or have regular design changes, an ongoing relationship with SVZ is ideal.
• Content & Conversion Optimization: SVZ can stick around to help with creating new landing pages, running A/B tests, or refining the site based on user data. This crosses into digital marketing (what we consider “Growth”), but it’s worth noting as a value-add.

In summary, top web design companies go beyond launch – they become partners in your digital growth . When evaluating agencies, ask about their post-launch offerings. It’s reassuring to know they’ll be there to support you if something goes wrong or if you need enhancements later. SVZ includes 90 days of post-launch support with all projects  , and many of our clients choose to continue working with us on a long-term basis for SEO/content strategy and site improvements. We want your site to remain fast, fresh, and effective, long after the initial project is done.
