Site without maintenance
"The site works, but hasn't received updates in months. Every so often something breaks and I end up hunting for developers on the spot."
REGULAR UPDATES INCLUDEDYour site deserves an adult always in the room.
Care Blend is the monthly subscription that keeps your site updated, monitored and operational. Small interventions, technical updates and guaranteed response SLA, at a fixed monthly cost.
When to use Care Blend?
Three typical scenarios where monthly maintenance saves you big problems (and costs).
Micro-needs in queue
"I have dozens of small fixes no one takes on. Every time I have to ask for a quote and wait weeks."
INTERVENTIONS ALREADY INCLUDED EACH MONTHThe freelancer vanished
"The previous developer stopped replying. The site is mine but I don't know who to call anymore when something breaks."
CLEAR OWNERSHIP AND GUARANTEED SLAHow the monthly care works
Three recurring activity types, guaranteed every month, with response SLA defined per tier.
- EVERY MONTH
Technical updates
CMS, frameworks, libraries, plugins, dependencies. Everything kept updated and compatible before obsolescence creates vulnerabilities or issues.
- 1 (BASE) OR 3 (PRO) PER MONTH
Micro-interventions
Point changes to content or code (2h cap each). Interventions are already in your plan, no quoting, no waiting.
- QUARTERLY OR MONTHLY
Monitoring and reporting
Health checks, backups, uptime, baseline performance. Periodic report telling you what was done and what we suggest for the next cycle.
What's included and what's not
Total transparency to avoid surprises or mis-calibrated expectations.

Frequently asked questions about Care Blend
Can I cancel Care Blend whenever?
Yes. Care Blend is monthly, cancellable with 30 days' notice. No duration commitment or penalty. Continuity is the normal state, exit is always available.
What if I don't use the included interventions?
Unused interventions don't roll over, Care Blend is not a "credit" to spend, it's a "presence" that guarantees the SLA and automatic monthly technical updates. Even in months without explicit interventions, we still run security updates, backups and monitoring. Paying for Care means paying for attention, not just on-demand interventions. If you systematically need more than your tier allows, we propose upgrading to Pro or adding a specific Tech Blend.
Why does Track A cost less than Track B?
Because we know the site. If we built it, we have the docs, the architecture, the technical choices in mind. Zero time wasted on onboarding or legacy "discovery". Track B requires an initial audit precisely to establish this baseline.
Is Track B onboarding mandatory?
Yes. It takes the form of an onboarding technical audit and maps the real state, vulnerabilities, dependencies and calibrates the SLA. Without a baseline we can't guarantee SLAs. It's a one-time investment to start stress-free.
How are extra interventions billed?
A flat rate per intervention, which varies by tier. No hourly rate. If an intervention > 2h emerges, we classify it as Patch Blend (2-4h) or Tech Blend (> 4h) with reserved Care terms.
Does it also cover urgent security issues?
It covers preventive maintenance (updates, baseline monitoring). For active compromises or incident response a Recovery Blend is required, but Care clients get queue priority and reserved terms on the intervention.
Choose monthly peace of mind.
If we built the site, the first year of Care Base is included in Monstre projects. Otherwise, we start with a light onboarding to calibrate the right plan.
