Northstar / 06 / Keep the system dependable

Website Care

Northstar connects website care to the wider customer journey. Maintain the website, measurement, and conversion path after launch so small failures do not become expensive gaps.

FOUNDER-LED / GROWTH SYSTEMS / UNITED STATES

Customer problem / 01

A maintained, monitored website with a clear queue of updates and improvements.

Websites degrade as dependencies age, content changes, links break, performance shifts, integrations fail, and no one owns the ongoing review.

Problem → Outcome

Northstar approach / 02

Start with the decision the customer needs to make.

  1. Establish the hosting, update, backup, monitoring, and reporting responsibilities that apply to the platform.
  2. Review performance, uptime, broken links, security posture, analytics, and conversion paths on an agreed schedule.
  3. Prioritize content and conversion improvements according to business impact.
  4. Report what changed, what was observed, and what should happen next.

Potential deliverables

  • Hosting oversight and applicable backups
  • Dependency and content updates
  • Performance and uptime monitoring
  • Broken-link and security reviews
  • Analytics and conversion checks
  • Prioritized conversion improvements
  • Maintenance and reporting

Strategy → Execution

Measurement and fit / 03

Measure meaningful movement.

  • Uptime and successful production checks
  • Broken links and unresolved errors
  • Core Web Vitals and page performance
  • Lead-form and analytics health
  • Completed maintenance and improvement priorities

Ideal use cases
