Website Support and Maintenance in Christchurch
Changes, fixes and new pages handled by a Christchurch team on St Asaph Street.
Who looks after your website once it's live?
What IF Web is a Christchurch studio on St Asaph Street that handles website support and maintenance for businesses who'd rather not learn Webflow at 9pm the night before a campaign goes out. We take on changes, bug fixes, new pages, CMS updates and design tweaks, whether we built the site or inherited it from someone else. Support is billed hourly with no monthly retainer, and you deal directly with the developers and designers doing the work.
What does website support and maintenance in Christchurch cover?
Website support from What IF Web covers anything a live site needs after launch, from swapping out a phone number to a whole new section. Most of the requests we get from Christchurch businesses look something like this:
- Content and design changes, updated pricing or a homepage refresh before the busy season
- New landing pages for campaigns, events and Google Ads
- CMS upgrades, new collections and integrations with the tools you already pay for
- Brand extensions as the business grows (inside support hours, or scoped separately if it’s a bigger job)

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I be able to make changes to my website myself once it’s live?
Of course. It’s your website after all. Once your Webflow site is live, we’ll transfer full ownership to your personal account so you’re in complete control. Webflow’s CMS is incredibly user-friendly, which is one of the many reasons our clients love it. And, to make things even easier, we’ll also provide training videos so your team can manage updates with confidence. Need extra support? We're here for ad hoc updates and post-launch help, billed hourly.
Can What IF Web support a website another agency built?
Yes. Plenty of the sites we look after were built by another agency, a freelancer or someone in-house. Most run on Webflow, where What IF Web is a Premium Partner, and we also work on sites built with Strapi, Astro, Next.js and Vue. If a site turns out to be in rougher shape than it looks, we'll tell you straight before you spend money on changes.
Can you help us add new pages or features after launch?
Think of us as your website's ride or die team (or, more formally, growth partners). We're not just here to crush bugs; we help your website grow, from new designs to CMS upgrades and integrations.
Do I need a whole new project if I want bigger changes?
Not always. Most requests like new pages fit inside support hours. If it starts heading toward full rebuild territory, we’ll flag it early and scope it transparently. You’ll always know what’s coming, and stay in control.
How does support pricing work?
It's billed hourly, so you only pay for the time each request takes. There's no fixed monthly retainer to sign up to. Check out our pricing page for current rates.
Do you work on retainers or an hourly basis?
What IF Web works on an hourly, ad-hoc basis for ongoing support. Instead of a fixed monthly retainer, clients pay for the time spent on each request. Response times don't depend on tier. Clients get the same team, and the same speed. Doesn't matter whether they log one hour a month or twenty.
Can you train my team or help us manage things ourselves?
Every site we launch comes with custom Loom videos, showing your team exactly how to handle the day to day in the CMS. Need a refresher later or something new? Just give us a shout.
Is What IF Web based in Christchurch?
Yes. What IF Web is based on St Asaph Street in Christchurch and works with businesses locally and internationally. If you're based in Christchurch and want to meet in person, we're happy to do that.
