Need help with a WordPress website that’s broken, outdated, slow or simply becoming a bit of a headache? Upkeep provides WordPress support, maintenance, development and hosting from our office in Winchester, Hampshire.
We work with businesses across Hampshire and the wider UK, helping with everything from broken websites and plugin problems to ongoing maintenance, development and hosting.
Your website doesn’t need to be complicated to look after.
Sometimes you just need someone to fix a problem. Sometimes you need regular updates and maintenance. Sometimes the website has been around for a few years and needs some proper attention.
Whatever the situation, we’ll look at what you have, explain what’s going on and recommend the most sensible way forward.
You don’t need to know exactly what the problem is before getting in touch. Tell us what’s happening and we’ll work it out.

You don’t need to have worked with us before. In fact, we regularly take over websites that were built by another agency, developer or freelancer.
Some are well maintained. Some haven’t been touched properly for years. Some have a collection of plugins that nobody is quite sure why they’re there. We’ll assess what you’re working with before recommending anything.
We prefer to repair and improve an existing website where that makes sense. If the current setup is becoming more expensive to maintain than it is worth, we’ll tell you that too.

We’re based in central Winchester, Hampshire, and have been working with websites for more than 25 years through Think Creative. That means you’re dealing with an experienced development team rather than a support desk that simply points you towards a knowledge base.
Upkeep is powered by Think Creative, giving you access to a wider team covering design, development, digital marketing and technical strategy when your website needs more than a quick fix.
We support businesses in areas including Alresford, Kings Worthy, Eastleigh, Chandler’s Ford, Romsey, Alton and Petersfield, as well as Southampton, Basingstoke, Andover, Fareham and Portsmouth. Most support can also be handled remotely, so you don’t need to be based around the corner for us to help.
“Our web developments are usually ambitious and complicated, but we are yet to come across a problem they haven’t been able to solve.”
Abbie Dickson-Davies
Head of Marketing, Propp
“They really understand our charity and our audiences and deliver high quality solutions that meet our goals.”
Kay Mitchell
Head of Communications, WinACC
“Regular face-to-face meetings with the team in Winchester have been important to me, but their swift and professional telephone and email support is also invaluable to any business.”
Jamie Pankhurst
Founder & Managing Director, Wilde Trout
“All parts of the web project were provided on time and to budget, and the team have been a joy to work with.”
Nikki Bream
Group Managing Director, Hazeley Group

Plugin update broken your website? Getting a critical error? Forms stopped working? Your website suddenly feels incredibly slow? We can investigate what has happened and work out the safest way to get things working again.

Keeping WordPress updated and maintained can quickly become another job on your to-do list. Our care plans take care of the routine housekeeping, monitoring and updates so your website doesn’t get forgotten.

Not every WordPress problem is a maintenance problem. We can also help with new functionality, integrations, landing pages, performance improvements, WooCommerce development and larger changes to an existing website.

Get someone experienced to deal with the technical side of WordPress without having to employ a developer yourself.

We can take care of WordPress updates, landing pages, campaign changes, forms, integrations and the technical jobs that keep getting pushed down the list.

Keep your online shop working properly with support for products, checkout, payments, integrations, performance and WooCommerce updates.

Need a development partner behind the scenes? We can provide WordPress development, fixes, hosting and ongoing technical support while you manage the client relationship.
You don’t need to sign up for a support contract before we can help.
If you’ve got a specific problem, we can investigate it as a one-off piece of work.
If your website needs regular attention, we can also provide ongoing WordPress support and maintenance through one of our care plans.
Ad-hoc WordPress support starts from £80 per hour.
Where the work is clear, we’ll provide a cost or estimate before starting.

We’ve been building, developing and supporting websites for more than 25 years.

We’re based in Winchester and work with businesses throughout Hampshire and across the UK.

You don’t need to have worked with us before. We regularly support websites built by other agencies and developers.

When you need more than a plugin update, we can bring in the wider Think Creative team for design, development, UX, SEO and digital strategy.
You don’t need to diagnose the problem before contacting us.
Tell us what’s happening, what you want to change or what’s currently driving you mad.
We’ll take a look and help you work out the sensible next step.
If that’s a quick fix, we’ll tell you.
If your website needs some proper development work, we’ll explain that.
And if it turns out your existing website really should be replaced, we’ll tell you that too.
We’ve been designing and building websites for years, so we’ve learned where to spend the time that really matters.
We like to keep the process simple, concentrate on what will make the biggest difference and avoid adding complexity for complexity’s sake.
You still get proper design thinking, strong layouts and the opportunity to refine the work with us. Our experience allows us to work within a proven system that gets us from idea to finished website far more efficiently.
The result is a website that feels considered and individual without breaking the bank.
